Kimi

[sweaterweatherr]

I have recently been crushing on this name due to F1 driver Kimi Räikkönen.

I adore how easy to spell/pronounce is but my real question here is, could the average kid pull it off? I mean surely he was a mere mortal at some point but could it work on a regular boy? Or is it just going to be setting him up for eternal bullying?

Also curious if anyone with Finnish background can give their input on the name as there's barely any information online.

Cheers xx

I really like it. If you love it I would definitely go for it, you may regret it if you don't!

I gave my cat the F1 name that my husband loved, because I knew otherwise he’d want it for a child 😂
If you like it, go for it! It’s a cool name, just one I wouldn’t choose myself x

Mudcakemanic It's so nice to hear it's got a tiny bit of approval by someone related to Finland. I really do like it and for some reason love the way it sounds with Alexander as a middle.

I did consider switching them around but Alexander Kimi doesn't quite give me the same vibe

BeMorePacific I could so see myself using all F1 names for DC. They all have this cool vibe. Max, Nico, Lando, Kimi. I even thinkI like F1 more than DP

LightDrizzle I do have that same concern but I wonder if a normal middle name like Alexander could give them a bit of an option when growing up. I personally go by middle and I thank my lucky stars for it!
