Middle names for boden?

[armt]

Thoughts on the name Boden (nick names Bode or Bodie)

And middle names (we like more classical middle names) or ideally a fire and earth name

2 middle names needed!

Better get used to “finding that quite rude” because people will mention the shop to you on a regular basis.

Not the same as Zara which was an established name, before the Spanish clothing brand was even founded.

I'm sorry but Boden Tate just sounds like an incel in a jaunty dress

It's heavily associated with the extreme right in Germany. 'Blood and soil' nationalism is called Blut und Boden, a Nazi slogan.

Isn't Beauden the spelling when it's a first name? Differentiates it from the shop at least and pronounced the same.

I agree it is more likely to be Bodhi (if a boy). I think it's a Scottish name so things like Hamish, Callum, Fraser, Hector etc.

We have a favourite!!!

Wasn’t Bodhi the Patrick Swayze character in Point Break? Cool surfer name.
Boden, no.

Sorry but that’s an awful name. Why are you naming your child after a cup? Are you hoping he gets bullied? Because he will.

This reminds me of the time when I was 8 months pregnant and I fell out with my husband because he wouldn’t agree to name our daughter Thor. Pregnancy hormones, eh?

and before anyone pulls me up on being mean … we are all thinking it!

so Boden NO MUM

This is hilarious, well done OP 🤣

I was going to say I know a Beauden which doesn't give shop vibes at least.

Very clever way to save time on sewing name tags into his clothes, OP. I like it.

Catalogue, or am I showing my age.

Johnnie

Joules, Hunter & Barbour

UK usage of Zara dropped when the shop became mainstream here.

I think it the clothes shop. Sorry but that's the only thing that springs to mind.

But it's a surname?

Please don’t

I don't care if it's nonsense it still made me smile this morning.

Boy or girl or are you looking neutral names? I think classic middle names are a good idea as they will appreciate having the options.

Thing is here -someone said it out loud. IRL - people will be thinking it and thinking "poor kid - why did the parents call them after a clothing company".

Better we say it out loud now, so at least you're aware of just how many people think it's not a good choice

Boden Aldi
Boden Matalan
Boden Mountain Warehouse
Boden Lidl
Boden Fatface

Surprised this name wasn’t universally loved

So is Parker, Harper etc. I’m not a fan of surnames as first names. Reminds me of a Billy Connolly stand-up where he covered that subject.

No you really cant subject a baby to that if you live in the UK
