Thoughts on the name Wybie?

[Lilacbluewaters]

we really like this name for our baby boy but everyone we have told in real life hates it and says he would be bullied as he grows older. But this generation of children has all sorts of names and I don’t think it’s a name that’s bully worthy?

Johnny
Joey
Freddy
Billy
Danny
Lee
Hadley
Matty

We had 'Can I call my baby Myra?' last week but honestly I think this is worse.

Why (b) would you do that to an innocent child

Awful. He’d be subject to a lifetime of teasing along the lines of "Why be so stupid?" etc.

It's awful. Can't believe there is one person who likes it - you, never mind you're partner to!

if you haven’t already, try looking @ urban dictionary ……
Id pity any child with this name 😳.

Definitely not

I like it! There are several names like that, all great:

Wybie
Whereto
Howso
Whatfor
Whenthen

Top, top boys’ names.

Wybie the baby, its awful

I am sure there are better names to choose from.

What about Herbie or Howie. Similar tone but less random

That is horrible. Even more so now I’ve seen it comes from Why were you born.

its great then you when you have another you can call that one wynot !!! 😂

I wouldn't, for a number of reasons:

1. It's a name invented for a book, and has a horrible meaning in that book.
2. The author who invented it is the subject of a sex scandal, rape allegations etc.
3. People won't know how to pronounce it.
4. For the above reasons, the child may dislike the name. At best they are likely to be on the receiving end of questions about the name.

I love an out there name but that's just in another galaxy - awful - sorry

Alfie? Not my favourite but it’s pretty mainstream.

Why is the question!? This isn’t a name it’s a jumble of letters

I have not seen Coraline.
It sounds like a weight loss drug or a cheap airline.

This x 1000

This puzzles me too - “we” really like??!!

God that's awful OP, why do that to your kid?

Sorry OP, I think it’s a terrible name and I usually just think each to their own but not with this.

What about Jimmy, Billy, Harry or Bradley if you like that ee sound?

Easy to take the mick out of at school

Why be sad
Why be mad

Etc

I hate the name.

Whybie so awful to a child. It's just dreadful. Sorry but you did ask.
