FAQinglovely · 20/03/2009 18:23

my DS3 is Takunda Myles (with a Y - ye olde english spelling ).

suwoo · 20/03/2009 18:33

I like it and don't know anyone, man or boy called it.

dragonbutter · 20/03/2009 18:34

i like it.

Nancy66 · 20/03/2009 18:48

I really like it too. Good, strong name that's not overly popular.

GivePeasAChance · 20/03/2009 18:49

Know one and great name

Peachy · 20/03/2009 18:50

Don't know any but really like it.

EdwardBear · 20/03/2009 18:51

Its nice, someone with a name like that will go far

HeadFairy · 20/03/2009 18:52

It's quite a posh name but nowt wrong with that. He'll play rugby and marry a pretty girl with a nice accent and elfin features.

Rindercella · 20/03/2009 18:52

I like it. Have you thought about Milo too? That's quite cute.

SouthernMeerkat · 20/03/2009 18:53

I loved Miles, but there are two that we know, so it was vetoed by DH!

pippibluestocking · 20/03/2009 18:54

Love it - one of my choices if we had had a boy (we didn't!)

countesscaloriecounter · 20/03/2009 19:16

ooh im so glad people like it, i was worrie in case people thought it was horrid!
rindercella we were thinking we could maybe use milo as a nn? wasnt 100% keen as a first name as its a tweenie! no offense to anyone who has a Milo!
headfairy i didnt realise it was posh, but then again ive never met a miles...only one i know of is the one off fraiser!

I like it. Don't like Milo - but it's an OK nickname. Miles is cool.

pointydog · 20/03/2009 19:20

posh

TigersEnglandChick · 20/03/2009 19:20

I really like it too - I taught one a few years ago who was a real sweetie

gauly · 20/03/2009 19:21

It's Niles on Frasier - Miles is nicer though I think.

There was a Miles on This Life years back, for anyone old enough to remember!

pointydog · 20/03/2009 19:34

yes, phucker. He was a very miles type person

suwoo · 20/03/2009 19:36

I wanted to shag him fancied Miles. I also liked Egg too and still like a bit of Andrew Lincoln

CrushWithEyeliner · 20/03/2009 19:39

don't like at all

PheasantPlucker · 20/03/2009 19:41

Yes I liked the actor who played the Miles character - whose name escapes me at the mo. He popped up in Pirates of the Carib which threw me a bit....

cissycharlton · 20/03/2009 19:42

Really really like it.
