Mingus I think is the closest pronunciation. Glad people got what I meant Grin

Ming pronounced as in the vase, followed by iss - you don't pronounce the g. I agree most people (outside Scotland, possibly inside too these days) would pronounce it Men-zis. I am not a patient person and that would drive me nuts.

I wish my husband had let me have a magnus or a Duncan. If my 3rd had been a boy she would have been Odin.

I want to have a child now, just to name him or her THUNDER BEAR! What a fabulous name.

Ludovic is Scottish/Italian in origin & means famous warrior.

We have a Magnus. If DC3 had been a boy, we were considering Rollo.

MagnusMama · 11/06/2021 09:40

I really like Rollo too!

Was going to suggest Torben or Torbjørn too

Ranald is a great name. I'd forgotten about it. Much better than Ronald, for some reason.
