Unusual isn't it? I love Chenille jumpers. They're so soft. It's a nice sound too.

Or Cashmere?
Suedette?
Angora?

Velvet is good, though a bit porn star.

I like the word but it sounds like a made up name and as if the parent didn't know that Chenille is a sort of fabric.

a bit wooly

Devore would work

Jaquard for a boy?

Spidermama · 08/04/2009 18:23

Lycra Mohair?

LOL at Polly Esther.

What about Acrylica?

ItsMargotBeaurEGGarde · 08/04/2009 18:27

I encountered one yesterday, sawful innit?

And before you all murder me, I'm not in the UK, so I'd eat my socks if the Mum read this.

Somebody 'famous' has a daughter called Velvet. I think it is Suzy Godson. She has written some annoying articles about something that annoyed me intensely. Can't remember what though.

Seriously, I think quite like Velvet

Pannacotta · 08/04/2009 18:29

Polly Esther my favourite

ItsMargotBeaurEGGarde · 08/04/2009 18:30

loo roll though!! I can see where you're coming from. How's it different from Scarlet. I like Juliet and Valerie so if you jumble up those sounds 'velvet'. But somehow, no. I just see a loo seat and a bum.

Polly Esther is inspired

Terylene - then she can call herself Terry if she doesn't like having such an unusual name.

leaa · 08/04/2009 18:51

Chenille means caterpillar in French! That child better never visit France, ever!

stuffitllama · 08/04/2009 18:52

ItsMargotBeaurEGGarde · 08/04/2009 18:54
