Do you think Devil?

I think of Damian Marley and start singing 'Beautifuulll here we go again my love, you know I will never let you gooooo'

I like the name Damian btw, I think it's classy and shame about the demonic associations.

I have a Damian 😊 he's a very popular and well loved child, sensitive and loves art, my best mate

I do immediately think Devil child, if that bothers you. Extracting that connection, it is actually a nice sounding name! But he will get that lots.

What about Damon? Also nice, less Omen.

Makes me think of the Time Warp which always gets me running to the dance floor!
I really like it and Damon too.
Prefer the spelling Damien though.

Damian Slash

Hahaha? You can't be serious?

Pantheon · 22/08/2020 14:34

Yes

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 22/08/2020 14:34

I also think devil child.

I just wouldn't

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 22/08/2020 14:36

Redundant question now really as having a second girl Smile don’t think I would have been brave enough anyway

The girl in the Omen films was Delia.

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 22/08/2020 16:14

Like Delia! Grin

OP surely if you are expecting a girl then go with Lilith!

Fits the genre.

I literally hear O Fortuna in my head...

Mashingthecompost · 22/08/2020 17:39

I like it. I don't think the association is that strong but I know 2 in real life and they're both good people. (In reply to the Lilith comment, I prefer Drusilla!)

ittooshallpass · 23/08/2020 08:09

Yep. Just think Devil straight away.
Never understood why liz Hurley chose the name for her son - assumed it was attention seeking 🤷‍♀️

earthyfire · 23/08/2020 22:19

Yes, I really dislike it.

Jj2431 · 24/08/2020 03:06

Yes I do but I think it's a shame as it sounds nice
