Timothy - thoughts please...

[Aliway]

I haven't come across many- or any small boys called this name what are the thoughts on this name- I haven't heard it commented on in any of the other 'baby names' bloggs

I am in my late thirties but I'm not picking up on the comedy show. ?

Right. He lived at home in his 40s. Remember it.

I like it, but unless you shorten it you need to remember that a lot of DCs have trouble saying 'th' and so you will get Timoffy or Timossy!

My brother got called 'moth' at school. As a proper nickname. That shows some inventiveness, I think.

No, it just sounds really wet to me which is never good on a boy!!

Oh nooooooooo
What if he ends up a 6 foot rugby player! Timothy suits a baby up to 6 months.

I am SO sending my brother round to have words with you lot that think it sounds wet or suited only for babies.

It's got to be one of my least favourite names ever. It just has horribly wet, dopey connotations for me.

I like it and I've known some lovely blokes with that name over the years, including a close friend. I don't think I've ever met a Timothy I didn't like.

i dont usually comment negatively on names and lurk quite a lot too but had to say No to this one, both on the name itself and from experience of any Timothy/Tim i've ever met.
Sorry

my brother's name too! Prefer Tim to Timothy tho.
