We thought of this name for our baby boy and wanted some opinions on it! We wanted something unique but not too out of the norm. Thanks. :)

Awful sorry

bookmum08 · 21/09/2020 23:16

Lawyers firm or an estate agents.
Sorry.

CountessFrog · 21/09/2020 23:16

It sounds like a character from a Barbara Cartland novel.

Winterfellismyhome · 21/09/2020 23:17

It sounds like a stereotypical rich boy from a kids tv programme

IncludeWomenInTheSequel · 21/09/2020 23:17

I knew a Kash who was verrrr sexy Wink

Not sure about Cash though. Sounds a bit Loadsamoney.

Ullupullu · 21/09/2020 23:17

Hmm. I think you need to choose one or the other as they are both unusual.

Cash James
Kingsley Jonathan

That kind of thing.

JamieLeeCurtains · 21/09/2020 23:19

It sounds like a betting shop.

DownThePlath · 21/09/2020 23:21

Awful and pretentious

Humbersider · 21/09/2020 23:21

Online bingo site.
Cartoon character who wins on the slots
Pound shop.

The "ley" gets lost and it becomes Cash Kings -which sounds like a dodgy loans company or a chain of pawn shops. Sorry.

ElizabethinherGermanGarden · 21/09/2020 23:22

Sounds like a cowboy in an old-style mills and boon romance.

lottiegarbanzo · 21/09/2020 23:22

I misread / interpreted it as Cath Kidston initially.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 21/09/2020 23:31

I quite like the sound of it but not with Kingsley. I do agree that it could sound like a dodgy loan shark company.
Is Kingsley the middle or surname

BackforGood · 21/09/2020 23:34

Why have you started a second thread on the same name ? Confused

goldpendant · 21/09/2020 23:35

Kingsley is a gorgeous name. Cash isn't!

chunkyrun · 21/09/2020 23:36

Nice try

Onesailwait · 21/09/2020 23:38

I like it. I nearly chose Cash for my son, went with Cole in the end (not in the uk).

Why are people concerned i started two threads? Because i can and i'm getting opinions on it since Kingsley is horrible with it apparently.

Thanks everyone else for the non rude comments.

Horrendous, with a serious ring of grabby materialism to it "Cash is King"

ktp100 · 21/09/2020 23:47

First thought - "Cash me outside, how bout dat?!"

Dr Phil classic.

CEO Cash Kingsley wants to build the new headquarters of his business empire in a quaint, old fashioned American town of Kingsley Wisconsin. The only problem is he would have to tear down the community centre to do it.

Can a school teacher and her cute nephew convince him to change his mind? Will they find love along the way?

Find out in Cashing Heart next week on the hallmark channel.

Haven't you heard the phrase, "Cash is king"?

Don't do that to a child. Cash is a nice name for a dog. Don't make a human have to spend his whole life embarrassed by a stupid name.

pimble · 22/09/2020 00:02

It's awful.

TheFormerPorpentinaScamander · 22/09/2020 00:02

Cash is awful. Love Kingsley though.

BohemianDream · 22/09/2020 00:03

It sounds very bling bling. Like a crappy clothing brand, I can picture it as a logo on a hoodie in diamantes. I'm sorry to sound so mean.
