Cosmo

[AmyD54321]

Just that really, what do you all think of Cosmo (for a boy)?

Would also love any other suggestions for boys and girls. Others I like are Ludo, Alexis, Felix (boys) Astrid, Lois, Erin (girls)

Thanks!!

do you not think these kind of names will be like Gary and Jason? Names that date a child

Not really as Gary and Jason, while dated nlw, are still 'normal' There are thousands of 45 year old Gary's and Jason's. That won't be the case for Cosmo. Maybe for Jayden and Tyler though.

Genuine question.

Really interesting question! Honestly, you’re probably right. I suppose people who names their children Gary/Jason loved them at the time and didn’t think about how ‘trendy’ the names were at the time (however funny that is to think of Gary being a cool name!)

I suppose that’s why the ‘classic’ names like William, James, etc etc are so popular because they don’t date. But they’re just not to my taste! So yes my taste in names possibly will go out of fashion, but personally I’m ok with that! Interesting point though!

Genuine question.

I don't think Cosmo is that kind of name at all. There are threads going back about 15 odd years asking for opinions on this name and it's never been in the top 100 AFAIK. I've never met or heard of a Cosmo in real life.

The names that will be very much of their time are ones like Archie, Alfie, Luca, etc.

These are fashionable names that rise up the charts quickly and then fall out fashion and sound dated.

Examples imo include Alfie, Archie, Finn etc

Cosmo is a much more timeless name that is unlikely to become super fashionable quickly.

I like Cosmo.

DD would have been either Cosmo or cosimo (DH permitting)

If i have a ds2 he is going to be Cosmo or Magnus!

( I also know a cosimo aged 2)
