Can’t believe this is real.. does anyone like it?

Just flicking through Rightmove as we’re looking to move soon, when I came across this in a child’s bedroom. As there are no other words on the wall and no images I can’t be crazy to assume this is the child’s name? Perhaps I’m being mean but I cannot imagine calling my child Tortoise… 🐢 Would anyone else?

It really does look like Tortoise, doesn’t it? Maybe a nick name…..!!!!

I'm sure it's just a pet name.

Excuse me. That’s my sons name and it’s pronounced Tor-TWAHS.

I'm sure it's just a nick name.

In this day and age….you never know. I mean people name their child Wolf and Bear

My thoughts exactly! I would have thought a nickname 10 years ago, but not sure anymore

Maybe he's a shy child and they're hoping he will come out of his shell, then they might rename him?

Perhaps a real tortoise sleeps in the room.

Can you post the link I want to see the rest of the house?

I did try to reverse image search to find the listing but couldn't get it

My DH has always called my DS “monkey”. I remember when he was 6/7 he found out that he was born in the Chinese year of the monkey and was convinced this was why his nickname was “monkey”. I don’t think we would have celebrated it in such an anal fashion though.

My dd is called Turtle by everyone 🤣 hardly anyone uses her actual name, so I would probably get Turtle put on something before her actual name. I don't think someone called their kid tortoise.

Genius 🐢😂

Honestly it probably is the name! Please send the house link!

😂😂😂

I’m guessing it’s a nickname.

I call my child little monkey or little frog. I doubt it’s the child’s actual name.

Here’s the link: https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/138392876

No evidence of tortoises in the rest of the house 😂

It’s spelled Tortoise but actually pronounced Dave.

I always thought it was a girl's name pronounced Toto-eeze.

Ahh thank you!!

It's a bit of a disappointment I must say, was hoping for something else
