Why would you deliberately set out to give your son a girlie name?

Yeah, because all things feminine are inferior to all things male. It would be awful for a boy to be associated with anything feminine, wouldn’t it?

Nope, but it would be awful when he got bullied at school because of it.

What a load of bollocks

What you think someone will be bullied at school for being called Noah, Leo or Theo? Names which are in the top 10/20?? I think not. Softer doesn’t mean ‘girlie’. Not that there is anything wrong with being feminine, which luckily most people living in 2021 now realize.

I forgot to tag, that was in response to @Kaia20

@VenusFlapTrap questioned giving a boy a ‘girlie’ name. You responded to that. I responded to your response to that. Noah, Leo, or Theo weren’t mentioned. And yes, they would be bullied for having a ‘Girlie’ name and no, most people living in 2020 don’t

Quite.

This is obviously a wind up thread but kids don't get bullied because of their names anyway.

can't believe a PP has said that the girls name "Heather" is butch.....
(PS I am not called Heather and I dont know anyone called Heather and I do think being butch is fine).....

Ben. I haven't encountered a little Ben for years...

I like Seth, not sure about the soft thing but it’s not a harsh sounding name.

My “Quite” was in response to Pluto, obviously.

Children bullying boys because their names are ‘girlie’ have learnt this behaviour from adults pedalling dinosaur attitudes that female things are inferior to male things, which your attitude shows you are perpetuating, Kaia.

Not that bullying happens about the sort of names on this thread anyway.

@CorianderBee

Soft boi means a feminine man name. Ffs it's not hard to figure out.

Ffs apparently it is. There seem to be plenty of us who have no idea what the hell is going on

no need at all for the Ffs

@TheQueef

Maude.

This made me squeal 😆

I have to admit when I saw the thread title , I thought it would be other names for testicles and scrotum, as in what do you call your DH's soft boi's ?

How about Evelyn, as in Waugh ?

Soft to my ear at least

Noah
Dara
Arlo
Aaron
