Morgan? Is this chavvy?

[dollyvarden]

Always liked this name - in my mind I think of Morgan Le Fay & I've always thought of it as a bit ethereal. Just noticed though that Bianca on Eastenders has a daughter called this. I had it in mind for my next DD due Jan but this is making me reconsider. Don't usually watch EE -was at my mum's- & have only ever met one Morgan before. Has it become chav?

My son is called Morgan, sod the lot of you that think it's "Chav".

He's almost 5 btw and the blonde boy on my profile, one of the sweetest little boys you'll ever meet. He was totally loved by his pre-school teachers and always got glowing reports. He started reception last week.

Erm....i like the name Morgan. and i'm not a chav. Then again Hermione is apparently chavvy and i like that too.

Oops

He looks gorgeous JodieG1.

These name threads do actually really hurt peopel unfortunately.

I would be hurt if someone caled my DC's names chav.

That's why I called them Cordelia and Ranulph.

He's lovely Jodie. It's a great name for a boy, strong and traditional.

Interesting that the 2 "is this name chavvy" threads that have appeared in active convos today are by 1st time posters

Thank you Bringbackmybonnietome and Brightfield

Or namechangers wanting to protect their potentially named LOs.

My SIL chose the name whilst pregnant for either a boy or girl. She had DD and she is a Morgan and it suits her. I personally thought it was a boys name though but I dont think its too chavvy

I know a 13 vyear old Morgan who is a twin, she is so lovely, I always associate that name with a girl.

I think Morgan is a lovely name. Generally think of it as a boys name as have a cousin Morgan. Not sure why people think it is only a surname, very strange that. I have always thought of it as a traditional Welsh name myself, much used in the Cadfael books if I recall.

But then maybe I'm a chav myself as we have the same crockery as someone on EE (dp pointed it out to me). Oh the shame......

If you're not a chav then no one will think that Morgan is chavvy.

I think so.

I'd rather go with Morganna

or meredith, but the yanks have spoilt that nice Welsh one for me...

my dd is Morgan and she really suits her name,and the name came to us from our boat which was named "morgana" and we are certainly not "chavvs" what a sh*t expression anyway call your child what you want and what you feel comfortable with.
