I too am squiffy. not that squiffy though.

Can you imagine shouting either across the park?

nevergoogledragonbutter · 04/09/2009 23:18

Woody yes.
Moury, probably not.

But they are beautiful looking names.
And you wouldn't get the 'you'll never be a politician with that name' comments.

Sound like estate agents.

Woodrow and Seymour.
For all your property needs.

I once had a skeleton called Seymour Bones.

Woodrow, I suppose. Because I can't help but think of Seymour Butts.

nevergoogledragonbutter · 04/09/2009 23:22

They are the names of my imaginary future children (or names that never got past DH the first two times).

I like seymour. reminds me of the geeky man from Ghost World.
And JD salinger.

but wouldn't have the guts to use it. would be cruel i think

fiver · 04/09/2009 23:23

seymour butts

nevergoogledragonbutter · 04/09/2009 23:26

While we're here, i have a Calum and a Sol.
I would have loved Columbus and Solomon but, you know, for all the reasons Seymour and Woodrow don't work.
How do I get over it?

fiver · 04/09/2009 23:30

nevergoogledragonbutter · 04/09/2009 23:31

Philip Seymour Hoffman makes it sound cool.

Woodrow was in the Simpsons too. He was in the episode where Bart answered Ms. Crabapple's personals ad and sent fake love letters to her.

If you're not pg, then you don't even have hormones to blame for this....
