Baby boy now 2 weeks old and still has no name.
Finally got it down to a shortlist of three.
What do you think? All opinions welcome!

Austin
Jasper
Leo

(Is Leo getting quite popular?)

Austin really does makes you think of shagadelic secret agents.

Leo. Jasper always reminds me of wasps
and Austin of Austin Rovers!

suwoo · 27/04/2009 21:51

Noonki, one of my teachers used to call wasps Jaspers, but I've never heard it again since. Why are wasps called jaspers?

Nancy66 · 27/04/2009 21:51

Jasper gets my vote

Austin is a car

Leo is too popular.

angrypixie · 27/04/2009 22:02

Come on someone must know!

simpson · 27/04/2009 22:28

Definately Leo

suwoo · 27/04/2009 22:38

Was he welsh Noonki? My teacher was and I lived in wales then and maybe more than one person said it. Could be a welsh thing?

Tinker · 27/04/2009 23:33

Leo

Austin is awful, sorry.

cece · 27/04/2009 23:35

Austin - like the car ? - not for me I'm afraid

Jasper - that is what we used to call wasps!

Leo - I like this one the best of your three names by miles.

cece · 27/04/2009 23:37

Ohhhh someone else who calls wasps Jaspers! I always thought it was a Devon thing as I haven't met anyone else apart from people in Devon who use that word for wasps!
