Brian

[Fimbo]

Fab

i like it

And just think you could have the female version Brianne or Briony. Damn why didn't I think of this before.

or Nigella

errr no

There is an Ian at DDs swimming and everytime the poor little lad is called I just cringe!

Ian I ask you what decade are they living in?

Anyway Brian was a crap name in the decade it was popular in - why would you call your kid it now?

What about Trevor?

Tis a joke

What's the female derivative of Trevor? Would it be Tracy?

What's wrong with Brian? I say bring back all those names which children were named back in the 1930 and 1940s.

What about Mervyn and Maureen for a set of twins?

Merv & Mo fantastic.

Wait and see my first grandchild (if I am lucky) will be Brian in honour of its great grandfather. What goes around comes around..

Screaming, are you here again with your bloody Nigel nonsense?? I think the OP is looking for a girl's name. Stop being so silly.

I think Brian is a beautiful name, it's mellifluous and soothing. It reminds me of the lauded poet and playwright, Brian Shakespeare.

I am merely garning thoughts on my father's name for anyone else who may have it under consideration or may not of thought of Brian as yet.

I'm sure he his gorgeous, Fio...but his name is not!

Fio. At last, someone with taste

Is your real name Amanda, by any chance?

fimbo I think Fimbo is a good name, and could be used for a boy or girl

Ah yes with Fim for short

It's not the worst name I've ever heard. BUT I wouldn't choose it myself. Mind you my own son's name is considered dated. I think it peaked in about 1935.

I heard of a Jeffrey, a friend of a friend had one yesterday. Kind of refreshing I think.

The Jester

Jeffrey Dahmer. I rest my case

oh yeah.

But, Ted Bundy!
