Turquand?

[freyapoodle]

Just come across this, what do you think? For a boy of course. It's a bit like Tarquin but not so foppish I thought.

Really don't like it... sorry

turd

Not as foppish are Tarquin? Are you living in the same world as the rest of us?!

It's awful. You know it is.

not to my taste.

No way!!!

Are you sure it is a name-and not someone who can't spell?

No, too like turban, turd, torquay, turkey... Please keep on looking.

no

lol

you are mad

and i have at least one of the other allegedly pretentious names on this thread

but you are still mad and bad for giving this headroom

Turd for short.

Never. Ever.

No, no no no. Just no.
Bloody awful.

TurquandCacos - it's an archipelago in the Pacific.

Ooh. I love strange names but that one sounds awful. I think you have to find the name by the meaning it has for you....

I've just had a baby boy (20 days) and we've named him "Blaze". A lot of people say it sounds like a Super Hero (which I agree with!) but for me it means "Uncontrolable Fire" which is a great way to explain the love he makes me feel and how it burns through me uncontrolably.

Also - I don't think Blaze would get so much stick at school as Turquand...!

I think Turquand and Shelmerdine would make a lovely couple

Sounds like Turqoise Wand. So many teasing opportunities.

And what would his nn be? Turq (turk)? Quand?!

Even more pretentious than Tarquin in my view, sorry!

PS Startingagain... I like Blaze!

One word.

NO!

Tur - d is the NN that springs to mind.....

Sorry but it sounds like a brand of turps or possibly Turkish delights.

He'll be made fun of for the rest of his life....

excuse me whilst i have a tena-lady moment

Terrible! You would need to be a Lord to pull that name off!

Ummm NO, you couldn't do that to a child you loved - surely!?
