Thoughts on the boy’s name Nori?

(Not as a shortened version for anything)

I just know it as a Japanese seaweed

MirandaGoshawk · 10/03/2021 22:08

It's a seaweed.

What's its meaning for you?

tonystarksrighthand · 10/03/2021 22:09

Reminds me of sushi

Woebegonad · 10/03/2021 22:09

What - like the seaweed? Confused

WonkyCactus · 10/03/2021 22:09

Makes me think of sushi.

margaritasbythesea · 10/03/2021 22:09

It's a dwarf from The Hobbit

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 10/03/2021 22:09

Yeah, its seaweed, or Norrie is the mouse from Hey duggee

GinAndTonicOnIt · 10/03/2021 22:10

Not a fan.

PompomDahlia · 10/03/2021 22:10

It's seaweed. Or a dog's name

Lindy2 · 10/03/2021 22:11

I have some Nori in my kitchen for making sushi. I'm not sure I'd want to be named after a seaweed.

Doyoumind · 10/03/2021 22:11

Like PP said, I feel like this is inspired by Hey Duggee.

TheVanguardSix · 10/03/2021 22:12

Nori... isn't it time for...?

It's a bit too Hey Duggee for me.

mnahmnah · 10/03/2021 22:13

Hey Duggee for me too. I immediately had Alexander Armstrong’s voice saying ‘Norriiiee!’

sarah13xx · 10/03/2021 22:13

@Doyoumind

Like PP said, I feel like this is inspired by Hey Duggee.
It’s my first child so I’ve never watched Hey Duggee 😂

I think of sushi, and to me it sounds feminine rather than masculine.

occa · 10/03/2021 22:14

Sushi...mmmmm. Hungry now.

Snooptheboot · 10/03/2021 22:14

Norrie is a girl in hey duggee and Nori is a Japanese seaweed.

What country does it originate from as a name? I think it would be a struggle in the uk...

Ohhgreat · 10/03/2021 22:14

Yeah its the female mouse on Hey Duggee be prepared to watch it a lot in the first 3 years!!

MrsWP · 10/03/2021 22:15

My initial thought was Norovirus then followed by seaweed.

alexdgr8 · 10/03/2021 22:15

don't be ridiculous.
it's seaweed.
give the child a proper name.
why would you want to subject them to your vanity project.

Firenight · 10/03/2021 22:16

If I was picking a dwarf name I would use Thorin.

ShrimpSymphony · 10/03/2021 22:16

A dwarf

greatauntfanny · 10/03/2021 22:18

Nori

Nori?
Willgetbetter · 10/03/2021 22:18
