What do you think?

Someone on my instagram has an Arrow arriving in August. She already has a baby Armour

I know I'd never use it because I'm not brave! But does anyone else secretly like these names?

I have a real soft spot for quirky names Blush

I like it

SabreIsMyFave · 20/05/2024 23:26

😆 Arrow and Armour. Oh FFS why do people do this to their babies?!

Whentheboatcomein · 20/05/2024 23:27

The instagram bio says it all.

I just said to H it's nice. He looked at me and did a funny English accent saying 'Arrow' for hello Grin

No…just no🙄

I don’t. I think they are ridiculous. Is the next child going to be called ‘Bow’?

Spirallingdownwards · 20/05/2024 23:29

Mother of 10. All with Awful names beginning with A.

Next up baby 11 Arsehole baby 12 Angina baby 13 Areola

Petuna · 20/05/2024 23:29

It's not a name. Well it is, but for a weapon

Look at the bio for the other 9 kids names all begin with a and all are awful

MrsMop1964 · 20/05/2024 23:29

Is she part of the Quiverfull movement. Sounds like it. (Christian lifestyle which involves having a large family).

Ihopeithinkiknow · 20/05/2024 23:32

Honestly the names of her kids should be the least of her worries, she is awful

VisitationRights · 20/05/2024 23:32

Terrible names.

NoOneFellOffTheirChair · 20/05/2024 23:32

Yikes. Not a fan. Have you considered Battering-Ram. More seriously on a weapons theme, what about Lance.

Lance sounds lovely!

I actually have very boring, conservative names for my DC

But something about Arrow! I just really like it

She’s an absolute fruitcake. Edits her kids skin colour

CaptainCabinets · 20/05/2024 23:35

I prefer Halberd. Grin

Well Lance is an actual name. I went to school with a Lance

ZiggyZowie · 20/05/2024 23:40

don't be daft

Why was I not surprised when I clicked on the Instagram link? 🙄

True. Back in the day, particularly at the time of King Arthur, people were called Lance a lot.

I'll get my coat.

You just had to, didn't you? 🤣

Etincelle · 20/05/2024 23:44

I don't like Armour, but Arrow I quite like. I wouldn't use it myself, as I go for classic names, but I wouldn't think it was a bad name if I knew one.
