Carter?

[honerajules]

For a ds what do you think?
Is this popular at the moment as I want something unique.

sounds like the head of the east end mafia

Was reading a school magazine yesterday that had two Carters (secondary school pupils), I enjoyed reading it because of the sheer number of 'distinctive names' including Asia-Jade, Colton, Sher-Vaughn and Tyfannie and I have a feeling Carter could well be grouped in with them. Sorry.

I think its awful. JMO obv.

No, it's not popular because it's a job-title and not a baby's name

oh I like this name but someone ran this thread a while ago and the conclusion was that Carter is Trying Too Hard.

You'll get no joy here honer

as in the ...the unstoppable sex machine!? er no...

Jimmie - ex president?

LOL cece that is exactly what I thought when I saw the thread - USM!! (we're showing our age no?)

Wonderstuff - your NN gives away your age - and the Unstoppable Sex Machine is the first thinkg I thought of too.

we should chuck in a shamen and a james while we're at it!

I don't mind Carter - I have heard a lot worse.

james is cool,

shamen is not,

Carter USM for anyone over a certain age!

don't like it - reminds me of one of the Rude Mechanicals in a Midsummer Night's Dream.

is a surname. not a forename.

there's a haunted plantation in Virginia that is still owned by the Carter family. it's called Shirley Plantation.

i visited it once, some 26 years ago.

think plantations are just a nasty American, slave thing they dreamed up? well, you thought wrong.

your good ol' Tudor/Stewart King James I dreamed them and made 'em a reality in Ulster/Northern Ireland to keep those pesky Irish in check.

so don't name your kid after history like that.

not for me. to me it is a surname.

of course, when I say a Midsummer Night's Dream, what I really mean is Terry Pratchett's take on it in Lords and Ladies (I think).

My first thought was the unstoppable sex machine too. You never know, he might like that tag when he reaches a certain age.

I dont think of it as a surname, its quite nice actually

To me, Carter is a surname and I don't like surnames used as first names. Sorry.

I know a little boy called Carter, he's absolutely gorgeous and the only one with the name I've come across so far. I like it.

I think USM as well. There is a little boy Carter lives in my street- have never really liked it.

As in "the unstoppable sex machine"?

Oops - sorry Snice - am clearly in that age bracket!!
