Truly Scrumptious. Poor kid.

I’ve taught a Truly and the scrumptious part was used almost daily. I can only imagine how bloody tedious it was for her.

Was this recently? I've never heard of "truly scrumptious" and I'm not young.

The film was made in 1968

Sounds like Julie! I would immediately assume that they were trying to say Julie.

I know what year it was released in because I've heard of Google.
I was asking if pp was teaching recently. I'm not sure how popular the film is with today's children.

It's not just the film though, it's a stage musical which has been touring in the UK in the last few years and has amateur rights available, including for a newly released junior version. I'm choreographing our lower school production of it right now so all our children know the song.

It's not an unpleasant sounding name, I don't think. But I would avoid it for the Truly Scrumptious link.

When I was little, I couldn't believe that my parents had watched Sleeping Beauty as children.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang will still appeal.

It’s a truly awful and pretentious name. 😬

I sing Truly Scrumptious as soon as I hear it I'm afraid. Could Trudy be an option?

Little girl at my daughters school called Trulie I think it's lovely really suits her but I do like quirky names
