Boy's name - feedback please...

[clareygill]

Clement? Would be Clement Edward but shortened to Clem I think.

GAAAAHHHH

Personally, no.

No thanks. I don't understand this fascination with names that shorten to Clem - it just makes me think 'eww, clammy'.

As ever though, your kid your choice.

Sorry i agree its not a great name, bit girly for my liking

No, sorry

But at the end of the day its your baby so if you like it thats all that matters

Not keen on it sorry

Makes me think of Clement Atlee. Not perhaps the best of associations. It's my brother's middle name, and he isn't fond of it, but there's nothing particularly wrong with it.

Clement Atlee was cool!

Clement Freud as well.

Although I believe that 'clem' is used as a derogatory playground term for stupid, so worth bearing in mind...

I don't like Clement at all.

ooooh I like!

(scribbles it down in case db3 ever gets conceived)

Not for me I'm afraid x

I love it, but couldn't bring myself to give it to a child, if that makes any sense.

I wanted to name ds2 Clement (after Clement Freud), but dh vetoed.

Think they'd get picked on at school with a name like that.

I may well call a dog Clement somewhere down the line.

Edward Clement.

Edward is great.

I really don't think it's a good idea to choose a name that absolutely nobody else has -and I tthing Clement's one of those. It's not ready for a revival yet - maybe for your next one!

Yes I like Edward.

Clement, not so much.

its god awful

ds2 arrived 11 days early at home in the bath with no pain relief WHAT SO EVER (I'm going to procure a cape & start wearing my pants on the outside of my clothes) & is now called Arthur Edward. Suits him just fine.

arthur is a lovley name

congrats

Love Arthur Edward. Congratulations! You are indeed SuperWoman!

Love Arthur. This was our first chice if DD had been a boy.

Glad you decided against Clem.

oh and congratulations on the birth . Hope all is going well

I know a baby Clement! And a Clementine.

I like it.
