We have settled on lots of names and then changed our minds.
Time is running out.

The names that I would have said a few years when it was possible that I would have had to name a baby have become politically charged- they were Kier and Isaac. So now probably Michael or Joseph. Or possibly Zachary.

How is Isaac politically charged??

Teddy or Harry. Or more probably Edward NN Teddy.

Rex

Think the OP might be looking for human names rather than dog names.

Jamie (might be different tomorrow, but it's been my consistent favourite)

No more children for me but Sebastian was on our shortlist for a boy when we had our DD. I also like the name Sidney.

HS1990 · 21/09/2024 11:26

Would be ideally something beginning with Y or Z. I already have A (Ds2) and K (dd4) so want the end of the alphabet lol.
Zakariya or Yunus for example

My former boss was a Rex, I'm fairly certain he wasn't a dog.

Israel.

Please let's not do this - stigmatising children with Jewish names. I say this as someone who is appalled by what has happened in Palestine. This does not lead anywhere good.
