A divided household - what do you think of Ernest?

[helpivegottogivebirth]

Or Ernie for short?

Husband likes it, I'm okay with it, the grandparents think it is forcing a lifetime of teasing on him. What do you think?

Other boys names we have thought of are Robert (Bert or Bertie for short). Er... that's it really - a bit unispired for the boys.

Girls are easy - Tabitha, Nancy or Marina.

We have a few months left so just testing the waters really.

My late father's name and I didn't even choose it for a middle name. Makes me think of Benny Hill!

When pg I always said if I was carrying twins I would call yhem Albert (my GGD's name) and Ernest (GD's name) and it would fit my Henson obsession (Bert and Ernie were the taxi driver and policeman in It's a Wonderful Life, it's where he got the names)

Ernest is a fine name, Ernie etc. Go for it

please, no. awful.

love the name Ernest suggested it to dh when we were expecting but He wasnt fussed (didnt dislike just didnt love)

for me the only association was for a guy I worked with once and He was fun lovely and just the sort of guy you enjoy spending time with..

Noooooooooooooooooooooo, please do not do it!

lmao @ "less educated" if you dislike Ernest

Robert is much better

Yeah, it's OK.

i think its fab....wouldn't use it myself by really love it.
