Dylan or Jack?

[Pingpongparker]

Any other name suggestions of a similar vibe welcome!

@AutumnAllTheWay Typo and a missing apostrophe, and in your reply a few more.
I'm not bashing teachers. Had you not mentioned that you were one I would have not commented the errors.

@HudALledrith I mean, you're just going out of your way to be unpleasant to them...

Or nit-picking- your choice!

I have a Jack (he's 9) and- unbelievably- he is the only one in his 3 form entry primary school! We don't have any others in our circle.

This is my son’s full name Dylan Jack so I love both 😃

I said I wouldn't engage but this is too irresistible... where are the missing apostrophes in my precious posts? Please, do tell?

I just think of the magic roundabout or Bob so don’t like Dylan

Think they are both nice names, prefer Dylan, hate the welsh pronunciation.

Jack and Dylan are lovely strong names, don’t know how a child name can make them naughty?

Bit like me saying all Hugo’s and Edmund’s give me posh twat vibes

@Blueskiesnotgrey , Emily isn't French. Amélie is and sounds a lot nicer in French.

@AutumnAllTheWay , as requested:

Plus, what the heck are you blathering on about?
"Round here 'posh' or 'cool' names are the dreaded ones"?!
The most nonsensical rubbish. 😂 Posh and cool to whom? You? Surely, they are both subjective terms? 🙄
And poor SPaG? Because of one typo? Yes, that totally means I have poor spag.
You know there's a difference between measured, formal, writing, and informal, hurried stuff written (while one may be breastfeeding, mid housework...)?
Take your teacher-bashing elsewhere and stop derailing the thread!
I won't engage with you any more but to reiterate OP- love Jack and Dylan.

FWIW, I don't consider any names particularly posh or cool, but some are the opposite. I used apostrophes because on here they tend to be used for names like Sebastian and Hugo or Finn and Arlo.

@PevenseygirlQQ , ... prefer Dylan, hate the Welsh pronunciation.
I think if you have heard a name said one way a lot a different pronunciation sounds 'wrong'. Dylan was so popular in the 1960s and 1970s that it was like Stephen, so 'Dillun' sounds as wrong as a Stephen said as Steffun would.

You've added commas in the wrong place! Honestly- please check with an English teacher. You're completely wrong 😂

Plus, where are the missing apostrophes?

Also, again, what are you on about?

I didn't question your apostrophes use! I'm not that sad 🙄

You said I'd missed some and I asked you where...

@AutumnAllTheWay , I haven't, but one or two of the corrections were overzealous for an informal post. Some of the commas were ones where ones that could be included or omitted. I tend to write formally.

Its laughable. - It is laughable so an apostrophe is needed.

It's probably an error made by the device and, as pp, I would have not commented if you had not stated that you are a teacher.

Yes, you did. See your post quoted.

"A missing apostrophe, and in your reply a few more.."

That's the last post I'm making in reponse to you- you're clearly mad as a bat.

And not as clever as you think.

I didn’t say it sounded wrong, and I will pronounce anyones name the way they prefer, I just don’t like the Welsh pronunciation

@AutumnAllTheWay ,I don't understand your post, but cba any more.

@PevenseygirlQQ , fair enough, I don't like the 'English' one.

I wouldn't pick either name because I know so many of them. If I had to choose, I'd pick Jack.

Wow this thread descended quickly.

Jack is so boring. Dylan is much nicer.

Who would have thought people could get so het up over someone else’s name choice. Honestly we are meant to be adults. Embarrassing.

I don’t like either of them.
