What is the name of your first child?

SoSoMehKinda · 26/01/2024 17:10

I like Bonnie. Celine reminds me of the luxury brand and selenium.

DustyLee123 · 26/01/2024 17:11

I don’t like Celine.

Celine and Bonnie are lovely.
Wren is so common these days, blah.
Ren as in Ren and Stimpy..?
Nah.

DuchessOfSausage · 26/01/2024 17:55

Bonnie - ok. Prefer Connie (short for Constance)
Wren - dreadful
Celine - Not dreadful but makes me think of Ms Dion

Rocco and Ren - both dreadful

Bonnie and Rocco!

greglet · 26/01/2024 18:24

I like Wren and Celine for a girl and Rocco for a boy.

SpicyMargaritaPlease · 26/01/2024 18:27

I love Celine. I always liked Celeste too, which isn't dissimilar.
What about Kit for a boy?

NSJ28 · 26/01/2024 18:31

My daughter is called Ellia and i love it. I also liked Callie. From your list i like Bonnie and Rocco

MaloneMeadow · 26/01/2024 18:37

The only one that I like is Wren.

Rocco is a dog name, absolutely awful and chavvy
Ren just looks incomplete
Bonnie is very twee
Celine just screams Celine Dion. I agree with a PP though that Celeste is lovely, Cecily is nice as well

Sofabum · 26/01/2024 18:39

When you say Ren I think Stimpy

Sofabum · 26/01/2024 18:40

What about solene?

UserNameChange6 · 26/01/2024 20:25

Congrats! I like your girls names, with a slight preference for Wren. I'm not sure about the boys names though, not to my taste

bridgetreilly · 26/01/2024 20:39

I don’t like Ren or Wren, for the same reason. The sound is just meh.

Selina would be nicer than Celine imo.

theduchessofspork · 26/01/2024 21:05

I quite like Bonnie

I don’t like Celine (too Dion) but Selina is nice

Rocco does sound like he’d either be an arrogant tosser or a dweeb with an unfortunate name. Robin? Rufus maybe? Or Raff short for Raphael or Rafferty?

Wren/Ren I really don’t like - and Ren is really odd.

TheBirdintheCave · 26/01/2024 21:54

I'm a Ren :) It's short for something though, think Lauren or Renata etc. I've only had one comment about Ren and Stimpy in my whole life, I had more Even Stevens comments when I was younger.

The only annoying thing about it is having to say 'I'm Ren, like the bird' otherwise people mishear me. My housemate's grandma used to call me Sven 😂

Celine is pretty awful
Vivienne is beautiful
