What do you think? Anyone ever met a journey? Just heard it the other day

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Just to clarify, are you asking what we think of "journey" as a name? 😮🤷🏼‍♀️
Is it April 1st?

Biscuitea · 14/05/2023 18:50

yeah I’ve met absolutely hundreds of them, it’s such a great name. So incredibly popular and I can see why!

MirrorMirror1247 · 14/05/2023 18:50

Don't do it.

justasoul · 14/05/2023 18:51

Don’t stop believing.

WeAreTheHeroes · 14/05/2023 18:51

Just imagine the crude ways the name could be used. No.

Otherland · 14/05/2023 18:52

I really love it.

lookingforMolly · 14/05/2023 19:12

It goes on and on and on and on... jour-ney!!

Beat me to it 😂

erikbloodaxe · 14/05/2023 19:20

Works better as a middle name I think......

Weight-loss Journey ( nicely hyphenated)
Preg-Nancy Journey
TTC Journey ( quite jazzy)

GeraltsBathtub · 14/05/2023 19:23

Are you sure they didn’t say Jenny and you misheard?

CadburyDream · 14/05/2023 19:30

No it was written down in another group she was asking for middle name ideas of course rose and mae where suggested 🙄

Maybe Joni instead?

zeropercent · 14/05/2023 19:42

I actually like it

MerryChristmasToYou · 14/05/2023 19:50

I have more than a feeling that it's the sort of name that you might regret using. A case of who's crying now?

MerryChristmasToYou · 14/05/2023 19:51

Planner might be a good middle name

Alwaystheweather · 14/05/2023 19:53

It’s bad enough that every life experience is now labeled a ‘journey’ without taking it a step further and naming a whole new human life ‘Journey’. That’s just taking it far, far too far.

ouse · 14/05/2023 19:54

I’ve met one. She was American. It suited her but it’s not a name I’d want to wear myself so I’d never use it.

AdaColeman · 14/05/2023 19:54

Not as pretty as Odyssey, nor as trendy as Trek.

Remember people on mumsnet generally only like names that are at least a million years old!!

Hold on to this feeling 👀
