Thoughts on the name on its own? Or better shortened from Christopher / Christian?

Not really keen on Christopher as know quite a few people named Chris

@MonaLisaPiles aww glad to hear that! I was worried about it being abit too out there but it grows on me the more and more I say it!

Our last name is Spurr so just need to find a nice flowing middle name also now

I love Kit.

Kester is an old form of Christopher

sarah13xx · 27/03/2021 11:04

Did you use it? What’s the middle name? Love it! It’s in my top 3 now

KirstenBlest · 27/03/2021 11:44

Don't put Christopher or Christian on the BC unless you like the name.

Kit is the name of one of the Rooney children.

Sports kit, rugby kit, kitty cat etc I'm not keen as a name.

I have a Kit. She loves her name 😂

Drunkenmonkey · 27/03/2021 15:32

I know a Killian Thomas shortened to Kit. Very cool I think.

Mimilamore · 27/03/2021 15:47

👍🏻

As a nn great - but definitely not as a full name - it’s too nick namey, and also quite unisex.

Kester - a Scottish version of Christopher - is an alternative version. Very underused I think.

My late DM was universally known as Kit - it really suited her as she was a very glamorous and fashionable 50s/60s lady who wore Audrey Hepburn type scarves and sunglasses, capri pants or chic frocks. And smoked looong cigarettes.

Violetlavenders · 27/03/2021 16:05

Kit as in kitten 🐈‍⬛
Kit bag 💼
Kitty cat 🐈
Kit Kat

I'm not keen on Kit as a name for either gender.
