Guessing game V!

Merry twixmas! Xmas Grin

We have reached thread 5(!) of the baby names Guessing Game.

This was the (brilliant) brain child of @scotstar back in March 2018. Smile

All are welcome, rules of this game are pretty straightforward - someone describes a name. Whoever solves the clues is then in charge of describing the next name. Simple! Make the clues as fiendish or straightforward as you like. Grin

Lucy?

finallychangedmyusername · 07/10/2022 18:53

Not Lucy, although I see why you said that!

finallychangedmyusername · 08/10/2022 20:55

The slap-up meal is a spicy one.

OP posts:
finallychangedmyusername · 16/10/2022 10:33

She has a namesake who is a British-American comedienne.

OP posts:
Ellmau · 16/10/2022 12:16

Ruby?

finallychangedmyusername · 16/10/2022 12:30

Correct!

Ruby is a gem (diamond) and red in colour (red-faced). The comedienne is Ruby Wax, and meal is a curry (Ruby Murray, in cockney rhyming slang).

OP posts:
Ellmau · 16/10/2022 14:46

New name.

It's not easy being a green aristocrat.

finallychangedmyusername · 16/10/2022 15:06

Kermit?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 16/10/2022 15:25

No. You could say there's a certain similarity though.

finallychangedmyusername · 25/10/2022 23:01

Could I please request another clue? Struggling with this one!

OP posts:
Ellmau · 25/10/2022 23:53

He's either from Yorkshire, or outer space.

finallychangedmyusername · 10/11/2022 22:42

Marty / Martin?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 10/11/2022 22:51

No.

He has one best friend. And was a TV star (now retired.)

finallychangedmyusername · 11/11/2022 08:03

Ernie?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 12/11/2022 22:22

No. Countryside or town?

Ellmau · 02/12/2022 18:43

Hope I haven't killed the thread...

He's also the hero of an early romantic novel.

finallychangedmyusername · 02/12/2022 20:03

I'm still here @Ellmau ! Darcy?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 02/12/2022 20:06

No, earlier than that.

Escourtie · 03/12/2022 19:16

David

Ellmau · 03/12/2022 20:32

No.

Think fancy poultry.

finallychangedmyusername · 04/12/2022 10:10

I'm now fixated on Rod and Emu! So (and I don't think I'm right here, but just in case),.... Rod, Rodney, Roderick?

OP posts:
Ellmau · 04/12/2022 14:08

None of those, but back in the right sort of area...

Ellmau · 04/12/2022 14:09

Possibly cheesier though :)
