Hunter is a good name

Aww OP you just spoiled the funGrin

But it's still Hugo from me.

gogohm · 13/02/2022 12:36

Hutch? They are for rabbits. Hunter - they shoot the aforementioned rabbits! Hugo or Humphrey, neither, too old man

jmh740 · 13/02/2022 12:36

My maiden name was Humphreys I wouldn't use it as a first name too many jokes about camels and other things I think Hugo is lovely

toomuchlaundry · 13/02/2022 12:37

Still Hugo for me. Hunter doesn’t go with Victoria, not same style name.

I would ask MNHQ to edit your title otherwise you will still get many comments on Hutch

DramaAlpaca · 13/02/2022 12:37

Hugo is the least worst.

narcdad · 13/02/2022 12:39

Hugo is the best of a bad bunch.

You seriously can't saddle a child with the name Humphrey 🤣 same goes for Hutch

NameChangeNymph · 13/02/2022 12:40

Hugo is the only option for me.

narcdad · 13/02/2022 12:41

Still Hugo
Hunter is awful, worse that hutch

TatianaBis · 13/02/2022 12:44

Humphrey is a cat.

Hugo goes better with Victoria, but I think I prefer Hunter.

Maybe because of Hunter Davies - although his first name is Edward.

Thewindwhispers · 13/02/2022 12:47

Hugo

Definitely not Hutch!! Unless you want him bullied

OpheliaThrupps · 13/02/2022 12:57

Hutch was a global A-list celebrity less than 100 years ago - no one has ever heard of him nowadays!

Blubells · 13/02/2022 13:08

Hunter

Hugo
Humphrey and hutch sound like rabbits

BiggerBoat1 · 13/02/2022 13:17

@Bosephine

Hugo- love it. Humphrey- not do much but ok. Hutch- prefer Warren.

Hunter is worse than Hutch. Sounds like a 70s porn star.

riotlady · 13/02/2022 13:21

I like Hugo, but what’s it short for?

MissyB1 · 13/02/2022 13:23

Can I offer two alternatives?
Hugh
Hudson

@walkingonsunshinewithicecream

*Hunter, not Hutch Sorry
Still Hugo.

Hunter is not quite as awful as Hutch but nearly.

SoupDragon · 13/02/2022 13:26

@riotlady

I like Hugo, but what’s it short for?
Nothing. It's just a name.
LawnFever · 13/02/2022 13:26

@SausageRoll2020

Hugo is a nice name. Humphrey I'm not keen on but it's a name. Hutch is what a rabbit lives in.
This sums up my thoughts entirely
AuntieStella · 13/02/2022 13:41

Hugo

I like Humphrey as a name, but I think it might be a little tiresome to live with.

Hutch might be OK as a nn from a surname or if your partner is Starsky

DarleneSnell · 13/02/2022 13:43

Hugo is my favourite, It's a great name

I do like Humphrey, it's cool, and someone needs to help bring it to the mainstream! Do your bit, OP Grin

Hunter is awful, sorry

Olga03 · 13/02/2022 13:43

Humphrey - I really like it, but sadly it's not due to a revival yet.
Hugo - beautiful name :)
Hunter - don't like at all
