Riley

[Zebraa]

...for my DS2. Opinions pleeeeeeeeeeeease?

DS1 is Charlie btw.

not for me, but if you like it, use it

I like it - got a friend with a DS called Riley. Very nice....eith what middle name?

Riley James

I like it

At risk of offending people, my DP likes it but is worried it might sound a bit 'chavish'.

Is that the case?

I have to admit my first thought was chav.

I clicked on this thinking 'yes for a boy, no for a girl'. So yes.

Don't like it personally. Not a great fan of surnames used at first names though- always sounds a little American to me.

I have one - everybody normally loves it in RL.

I like it...for a girl or boy...sweet.

Are there any famous Rileys? DP agreed with the very American comment. But it's Riley or Rodney...

i agree with your dh. certain irish names on english children seem to run that risk - if they are not irish to start with.

i know a lovely family with a riley - they are def not chav in any way - also the head of bechtel engineering co is called riley - very clever man

i think it very american name

It is quite American. Ds' favourite soft toy is Riley Rabbit from Mamas and Papas so I can't get my head past the association.

No. It's a surname.

I like it

Don't like it I'm afraid.

blimey o'

actually it always makes me think of buffy the vampire slayer

Me too. I detested that character which probably doesn't help.

No, I don't like it at all, sorry.

slightly chavvy but not as much as Harley, Harvey etc....

chav

2 kids at school called Riley - very chavvy!

I like it regardless of perceived chav status
