My husband likes 'Boston'

[Pinkglow]

My husband announced the other day that he really likes the name Boston for our son who is due in November.

Its not a bad name but I'm a little reluctant as I think people might keep saying things like 'Oh, was that where he was conceived' (it wasn't, by the way)

What do you think?

NOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I think children should be allowed to sue their parents for mental anguish, if they are given crappy made up names.

Sorry, but you did ask.

like i said lol can you imagine calling your grandad boston lololol

and the last comment of mine was deffo, 'More than a feeling.....'

no

my grandad was arthur, that's a solid name

Boston - Baked beans - strangler - tea party. Sorry nooooooooooo!

Penge, would be nice and unusual

Or Safron-Walden

i think you husband needs to stop sniffing glue

Well tell him to go there for a visit then, but to let you name the baby.

If you're looking for a way to put your dh off it, rent 'The Departed' so he can hear how grating it sounds in a Boston accent.

Or how about Llandidrod-Wells

Or Biggar. nice little town with a very good sweetie shop

On holidays, our closest town was Skibbereen, how does that sound ??

Or if you really want to push the boat out, have you considered Weston-Super-Mare ??

Or there is a village in Yorkshire called Bedlam, how does that sound ??

I appreciate your honesty but I do feel some of you have been unecessarily rude about it...

Pinkglow - I think the general consensus here then would be "no."

Divorce your husband...

Boston for a wee?

No no no on so many levels. Please tell us it is a ruse to wake us all up!

PS.... divorce DH immediaely if not sooner!

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch?

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch?

Oops - so good they named him twice
