Fox?

Just wondering what other people thought of the name Fox. I saw a boy on this morning who is starring as Billy Elliot in the musical and his first name was Fox. I don't like it but just wondered what other people thought of it.

I know someone who is called Renard, which is French for fox, so calls himself Fox.

a fox is an animal - not a child

at the risk of sounding like my mother... there are so many lovely names out there, why do people insist on giving their offspring these ridiculous made up things in order to sound a bit unusual???

Prefer Wolfie myself

Mother is pregant again - we are wondering what she'll do to be "on par"

Comerscroft · 15/08/2008 06:45

You could spell it 'Focks'.

That might lead to other variations.

Friend has ds called Foxx - 2 xs. It always reminds me of the X-files too.
