Boys names - a game for you all.

[seeker]

OK, I'm bored - my children are watching Top Gear for the 91st time and dp's away and I have 50 Pudsey Bear biscuits to decorate and I don't want to.

My father was born in 1918. His name was one that I have only heard 3 times in my life apart from Pa. One man, one woman, one still alive, one Victorian.

Any guesses?

Dagmar

Ooh, Wallace!

(does this mean i get to find out answer...)

I know 2 Gayes and my sister was at school with a dagmar

Evelyn

Quinn

It's difficult to decide whether it's more male or female. If really pushed, I would say female - but only because it has a common characteristic with a group of girl's names....

Condoleeza - help me out here!

Can we get a frst letter

Meryl

Harper?

I think Harper is comming back into fashion - if it ever went out.

First letter, Seeker!

G

Gertrude
Gilbert
Guthrie

Garnet?

Gandalph

Garnet - that's a good idea.

And the prize goes to Lynette!!!!!!

Another prize if you can guess the poor s*d's second name. Begins with W. The imagine life on a Queensland sheep station called Garnet W

Wally

Willy

Garnet is a fabulous name!

One of Jacqueline Wilson's books has twins called Ruby and Garnet (Double Trouble?)

I don't know what I think about the name - it's coloured by how much my father hated it. But as I said, he was a rufty-tufty Australian who worked on a sheep station, so it must have been a bit of a burden! My ds has it as his 3rd name, and it goes well with his other names, and gives him the initials PJG, like an old time cricketer!

Francis/Frances

Evelyn

Duh,

didn't see that you had answered already
