thoughts on the name wednesday!!

[MinaN]

Thoughts on the name Wednesday? Always liked it personally from the old adams family movie but dh seems to think it will become more of a 'trend' name with the new netflix show out. Opinions?

It does nothing for me but I've heard worse.

Sorry but it's awful.

IT'S AN ADDAMS!!!

I think that's one that would be hard to live with.

I wouldn't like the link with the Addam's family personally. It's not as popular with kids now obviously, but it does make a comeback every so often. I can imagine people humming the theme tune at them.

Outside of that, I just see it as a day of the week so for me it's not very interesting as a name. Sorry.

I prefer it with a capital letter..

My cat is called Wednesday

I really, really, really wanted to use Wednesday for my DD. My brother was absolutely convinced that we were going to use it but sadly DH vetoed it. The spoilsport.

I think it's a lovely name. We need more Wednesdays!

Fine if the child isn't born on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday

I like it but not if she's likely to have dark hair.
It reminds me of Lindsay tbh

I PREFER Lindsay

I like it tbh

I knew a Tuesday at school, it's no worse than that.

You'd be saving her an awful lot of heartache in life if you just called her Wendy instead.

I think it's beautiful but not something I would dare use. But I love it!!

Why are Tuesday and Wednesday the only day names that people ever use?

Why not Saturday - nickname 'Turd' ?!

The fact the new show specifically about Wednesday Addams on Netflix makes it even more tacky, but no doubt will somehow make it a popular name over the next year. Only way it could be worse would be to change the spelling to something like Wydnezdae

I can already hear the other kids at school whistling the Addams family theme tune and clicking their fingers 🙈

Addams family
plus
“Wednesday’s child is full of woe
Thursday’s child has far to go “

Part of an old nursery rhyme , so no from me
setting the kid up to fail

Awful

I love the name and would gladly use it if it wasn't for the fact that kids (and unfortunately adults) can be incredibly mean and the child would be the one to suffer.

There were a family at a school I taught at with kids called Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Two were siblings, one was a cousin. One was a boy but I can't remember which!

God no... It would be cruel!

Babies are separate human beings, not vessels for you to express how creative abd yooonique you are.

No. Just that.

Please no

No. Met a few tuesdays and Sundays. I'm guessing they were born on Tuesday or sunday?
