I am so stuck. I have girls' names galore, please give me nice slightly arty boys' names that won't get hugely popular in a year or two

I've known a Scot called Lorne. It's alright. one of the better names really

PrincessPeaHead · 16/03/2008 16:05

forgive me for not reading 651 posts but has anyone said Linus?

Franny strikes me as a mother of a Linus

Actually I was going to say Linus as well!

I am maybe too scared to suggest any more

foxinsocks · 16/03/2008 16:07

Caeleb (don't like it myself)

I like Linus. In fact it would have been quite apt for ds and his love of soft muslins.

LaidbackinEngland · 16/03/2008 16:07

How about Sholto ...quite arty, goes with B surname ?

PrincessPeaHead · 16/03/2008 16:09

hey franny I've named Aloha's DD and that woman in france who went waterskiing without her preemie's DS (what WAS she called) - please can I name your son Linus? Linus Holden. Very cool.

Falco

Amadeus

BBBee · 16/03/2008 16:14

I don;t like linus. I think it should be something soviet sounding - um, vladivar?

FrannyandZooey · 16/03/2008 16:14

sorry don't like Linus
too American and just makes me think of Peanuts character

oh btw my surname is not Boden but it is that kind of thing

Psychobabble maybe, but tbh it isn't something I have researched so I am not sure whether my experience really fits the definition or not. Have you experience of it? I will email you later

Linus is fab in French, though.

I once knew a large hairy French dog Linus, when they called him it sounded like "lee-NOOSE" - very cool.

PrincessPeaHead · 16/03/2008 16:31

Linus is swedish!
I am confident that in 4 months time you will have got over peanuts

Linus Boden

Coooooooool

FrannyandZooey · 16/03/2008 16:34

i just don't like it
sorry
