Naming babies after place names

[CklarahAndMarbellasMum]

My DD, aged 6, is called Marbella. Do you think it's chav to name DC after places?

If not, what place names do you like as names for DC?

My little dd would then be Swindon-alinaJolie.

Just rolls of the tongue, dunnit?

OP has not tried hard enough.

Chavvier names:

Boys:
Basildon
Bexley
Benidorm
Torremolinos
Fucking (Austria)
Dildo (Canada)

Girls:
Lesbos
Asda (not strictly speaking a place but close enough)

missmem - Chad is a saint's name and perfectly suitable if you're white ( and a boy).

Beverley
Chelsea
Paris etc

Keith is a town. And there's loads of them.

How about twins called East & West Dulwich?

India, Florence, Sienna all nice places and make nice names, Marbella - not such a nice place and not so nice for a name. Saying that I quite like Preston for a name!
Talking of diseases i always think Valeria sounds like malaria and Ruby Ella like rubella! haa!

I knew a Capri, named because she was conceived there. She was born shortly before the Ford Capri came out. Poor girl.

DD would have been called Lewisham a la Beckhams.
Much better boy's name.

at Bexley!
How about Bromley?

or Croydon?

I met a little girl called America once. It's the only name when I have had to really grit my teeth and try and say something positive.

Personally I prefer giving children real names, not making something up on the spur of the moment.

I used to live in Newcastle (the one upon Tyne) and quite fancied Jesmond and Jarrow for twins.

My middle name is Liguanea (Li-ga-nee), after where my dad used to live in Jamaica.
