Begins with F ends in X Not everyone's choice but suits him and I love the combination for my DS.

BexieID · 28/09/2009 22:47

Love it, but DPs surname is Henson.

Hooray!

FimboFortunaFeet · 29/09/2009 13:53

I think it is a very English name. Although I do like it. It's kind of the Hamish of the Scottish world (I am Scottish btw).

What I mean is you are not likely to see much of it in Scotland likewise with Hamish and England.

MrsJohnDeere · 29/09/2009 14:02

Lovely. One of mine has it as a middle name.

MrsJohnDeere · 29/09/2009 14:02

Lovely. One of mine has it as a middle name.

MrsJohnDeere · 29/09/2009 14:03

dunno what happened there

I love it, but we have a double barrelled surname beginning in H, and I wasn't sure about the alliteration. I do know a few though (of various ages).

We used it for DS2s middle name though

Lovely name, my beautifully delicious nephew is called Henry.

Hope you're OK btw Sally, after the other thread went tits up!

I love it! One of my all time favourites! I really like Hamish as well fimbo although I'm not Scottish!

weegiemum · 29/09/2009 18:45

LifeOfKate · 29/09/2009 20:29

I like it although personally couldn't use it as have a significant XP called Henry and it would be very weird to a lot of people!!

Just no

izzybiz · 29/09/2009 21:34

I love it.

With Ds2 we came down to Henry or George, when he was born he just didn't "look" like a Henry though!!

Fab name!
