What do you think of Archer for a baby boy?

[pramspotter]

I got talked out of Asher for a boy. What about Archer?

very few have seen it!

cos it's a radio show.

The Archers music was the first thing that crossed my mind too,I'm afraid.

I thought of Jeffrey - it was not a pleasant thought, sorry.

LOVE Archer!

I like it, I suggested it to Franny on her mammoth babynames thread. She liked it too iirc but her dh siad "Jeffrey" which put both of us off any future use lol.

Lol Puppymonkey, I was just about to do the same but in "dee dee dees"!

OP, Archer brings to mind 1. A certain rural soap opera on radio 4 and 2. A certain not so honourable ex-lord and ex-con.

Let's just say it's not my cup of tea.

It's a drink. And not a very nice one at that. Don't do it.

i quite like it. but i'm a fan of those sorts of names...sawyer, fisher, hunter etc

tum ti tum ti tum ti tum tum ti tum ti tuuuuum tum.

oh i see mb got there before me

and pruners

First thought Jeffrey, followed swiftly by Dum Dee Dum de Dum de Dum (sorry I'm hopeless at singing -it doesn't sound anything like that)

great for a saggitarius

i like it. makes me think of The Age of Innocence. (Edith Wharton book). though his surname was Archer.

I love it.

It's my maiden name, and I'd wished I'd have thought of the idea of naming one of the ds it.

and it would've gone so well with our surname

Unlikely they'll get teased in school, (I never did) because none of their friends will have heard of The Archers, jeffrey, or the drink.

Well Dh is saying its either going to be Abraham, Abram, or Archer. I think Archer is growing on me. We can't agree on names at all. I'll probably just call him Baby Boy.

Schnapps anyone?

I love Abram... not keen on Archer tbh.

I could shorten Abram to Bram I guess.....

I like Archer and nobody in the school playground is going to tease because of the connections we have all made .

I'm going to have to google this Jeffrey Archer person.

OP did you call your baby Archer? Just been searching for this name as we've chose it for our son a month ago

How about Archie?
Aidan?
Ashton?
Ashley?

Thread is 5 years old, i was just curious as what name she had chosen, there were 44 Archers born in England last year, our son Archer Jack is 5 weeks old

Abraham, definitely
Archer is dreadful
