Boy dog name

PeigiSu · 14/11/2020 07:06

Would assume girl first but not shocked to hear it was a boy.

SocialBees · 14/11/2020 07:06

The one I know is a girl.

Surname

Love for a boy or a girl. Ignore dog comments, so are Ben and Joe and Lilly and Lola but doesn’t stop them being in the top children’s names list

slothtrot · 14/11/2020 07:22

Boy, a woman I used to know named her son after her favorite drink.

doctorhamster · 14/11/2020 07:27

Well it's a surname but if it has to be a first name it would be for a boy.

ILoveAnOwl · 14/11/2020 07:34

I've taught one. He was a boy.

inappropriateraspberry · 14/11/2020 07:37

Dog, surname or creamy drink.

pictish · 14/11/2020 07:37

Both.

Blueuggboots · 14/11/2020 07:51

Dog male, cat male, human female (all in the same wider family!!)

TildaTurnip · 14/11/2020 07:52

Know one of each but I’d say predominantly a surname.

allthegoodusernameshavegone · 14/11/2020 08:03

I know a girl called Bayleah and and dog called Bailey and a family of Baileys. It is definitely better as a surname

CharityPecksniff · 14/11/2020 08:05

Ok if middle name is Motte.

GrandUnion · 14/11/2020 08:12

All the ones I know are Labradors.

movingonup20 · 14/11/2020 08:12

Dog or a rather delicious drink.

movingonup20 · 14/11/2020 08:13

myhobbyisouting · 14/11/2020 08:15

Definite dog

I immediately thought you were asking about naming a boy, as the only Baileys I've heard of are boys. That said, it isn't a very traditional name full stop, so if I was going to get picky it isn't a first name. I'm not that picky though. I think it's fine to use it for either. I don't particularly like it, but that doesn't really matter, if you do.

DepuisToujours · 14/11/2020 08:23

"If I was going to get picky I would say..."

Left out the "I would say" part^^

BishopBrennansArse · 14/11/2020 08:23

I had a girl cat called Bailey.
