No no no no no!

i think it's probably more acceptable to scots.

dizzydixies · 26/05/2009 22:17

Hunter covington is the name at the end of the credits of a programme DH watches (can't remember which one) BUT we both agree that it would be rude NOT to name a child that!

so you're allowed to use it as long as you have the middle name covington

LessThenIdeal · 26/05/2009 22:19

S'ok. As long as he's a gladiator...

Please dont burden your child with that name. It sounds like the name given to the main character in some cheesy Mills and Boon
romance novel.

janeite · 28/05/2009 21:03

I have seen (and liked) Paris, Texas.

Don't like Hunter at all though, sorry.

big game

It is very romance novel, where the men are rugged and laconic and have brothers called Tate and Ryder. One of those names I secretly like but would never use.

There will only ever be one Hunter
I do like it though. Needs the right surname with it though

ilikeyoursleeves · 31/05/2009 22:10

Makes me think of Bear Grylls, sorry!

My cousin has just named her little boy Hunter, but then she does live in Pennsylvania!

I have just named my boy Hunter just because of the reason that he looks hunter.

Sounds a bit silly and faddy

ChickensGoMeh · 20/01/2012 15:53

Imagine you call your DS Hunter. Now imagine he grows up to be 5' nothing tall and an IT consultant. It's a lot to live up to, right?
