On the advice of Liffey and after you slated my last girl's name, what about............

[ILoveBrucie]

Brucie?

For a girl

Not totally a piss take, you have lots of both names, eg Leslie/Lesley, Tracie/Tracey, Charlie/Charlie etc

The more I think about it the more I think it holds promise

OK Mumsnetters, please be nicer to me than last time, what do you all think?

[LiffeySaysHappyNewYear]

Bryce is hideous though. IloveBrucie, don't you go loving Bryce just cos it's got a Y in it now!!!

[oldwhingebag]

I know a grown-up Bruce who is great and a successful professional, so obviously hasn't held him back at all

I can't find the babyname thread where the mother wanted to call her DS Bear. That was good too.

You're not giving yourself individuality in this world of 'clones' - you are simply allying yourself with another group, the chavvy group. Mis-spelling names deliberately is one of the most conformist things you can do.

Far better to choose an original, unusual name and spell it properly.

[ILoveBrucie]

I bet you won't meet another little girl called Brucie in your life so it is unique

Chillax all, at least I don't have the authority to name your babies

[LiffeySaysHappyNewYear]

My name is Brucie.

[LiffeySaysHappyNewYear]

but

[LiffeySaysHappyNewYear]

I am a man

[expatinscotland]

I know a grown-up/now old man Bruce who was a vile perv.

Yuk.

The husband of one of my mother's lifelong friends, too.
