Please can I have your honest opinions on the names Seth, Ned and Travis. Thanks

I'd avoid Seth if you live anywhere near places where it will get pronounced 'Seff', which I think would be soul-destroying.

123Dancewithme · 22/04/2020 10:46

I only like Seth

SpillTheTeaa · 22/04/2020 10:59

I love Travis was on the short list for DS.

Itsabitmessy · 22/04/2020 11:06

I like Seth but not the other two. Ned reminds me of a donkey.

user1493494961 · 22/04/2020 11:09

Like Seth, really like Ned but as a shortening for Edmund or Edward. Agree with pp, Travis has a different vibe, a bit downmarket.

Figgygal · 22/04/2020 11:11

No to all of them I’m afraid

DramaAlpaca · 22/04/2020 14:51

I don't like any of them.

SquigglePigs · 22/04/2020 14:52

Love Seth. Not keen on the others.

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 22/04/2020 14:54

Hate them all. Particularly Travis.

CheriLittlebottom · 22/04/2020 14:59

I like Ned but only as a nickname. Edward or Edmund as the given name, I prefer Edmund though.

Not keen on the others.

If you want honesty all three are pretty terrible.
Seth is the best. Ned is awful and Travis is even worse.

Marimari93 · 22/04/2020 15:01

Seth - ok. Just hope he doesn't have a lisp
Ned - Flanders
Travis - American

mistermagpie · 22/04/2020 15:06

I like Seth and Travis, I considered both of them for my third baby (which turned out to be a girl!). Ned is awful. I live in Glasgow though and a Ned here is what you would call a Chav in England (think it stands for Non Educated Delinquent).

mistermagpie · 22/04/2020 15:07

Sorry, see others already said about Ned!

ElaineMarieBenes · 22/04/2020 16:09

Love Seth - as others have said Ned is more a nn and Travis is a cowboy of a name!

Staffori · 23/04/2020 01:15

I love Seth and Ned but not Travis. Another name I think of as similar to Seth is Jethro.

ofwarren · 23/04/2020 01:20

I don't like any of them, sorry

Icandada · 23/04/2020 01:25

I really like Seth and Ned, although I think Ned needs the option of a ‘proper’ name to use if he wishes to. Not keen on Travis, it sounds a bit 70s to me - possibly because it makes me think of Dave Lee Travis.
