I know you will think my DC names are Chav, here they are not, so here in my little bubble they are fine. I love them so dont mind. Could you help me find a name to go with the for the maybe number 3?

DS Kaden
DD Jacey

One of the things i like is the way they look together, I wouldnt choose a name based on this but if i fell for a name that achieved this i would be happy!

I agree with shine, darcey for a girl.

MaggieNilAonSneachta · 17/01/2010 19:57

Bryce... urrr. change ONE letter and it would be pinch-me so cool it hurts Bruce

Some harsh interpretations of chav here. Liam? Liam means William fgs! The name of your Prince.

Riley
Tyler (my DS name)
Macey
Cody
Harley
Harvey

Flight let's call these names modern. Having said that, some of these names such as Morgan and Harley, are very old.

But chavvy is just awful!

Adair · 17/01/2010 20:17

Ooh my boy has 'chavvy' names I think
Skyler/Sky
Harvey (actually named after his ancestor William Harvey, yes,he of blood-letting fame )

Agree, 'chavvy' is just snobbery and prejudice (but since you asked ).

LynetteScavo · 17/01/2010 20:24

I think these names are generally quite American.

southeastastra · 17/01/2010 20:32

they are, hardly suprising american names took off since we're bombarded with american films all the time

Sigh...

It's the mothership of c-ness.

nickelbabe · 18/01/2010 10:03

can i clarify to all people who questioned Bethany?
it's abeautiful name, but you have to imagine it shouted across asda thus: "Befff-ann- ayyyy"

does that now qualify?

hattee · 18/01/2010 10:23

I agree with the harsh interpretations of chav here. Bethany, Liam, Noah, Cameron and Callum for example. I am not a chav, honestly!

Though if the OP likes names generally considered chavvy by MN, she has plenty to pick from this thread!

gagamama · 18/01/2010 10:34

Not sure if it's chavvy, but Cain popped into my head when I read your other names.

GetOrfMoiLand · 18/01/2010 10:37

Why not just say 'names that the uneducated working classes will use'.

Lol at Krayola.

BabyDubsEverywhere · 18/01/2010 11:07

Dh Veto Kane as we call DS Kade and its too alike

Nickelbabe, doesn't that apply to all names?

-Stop kickin' 'im, POR-sha!
-Oi ARA-BELLAR, get off the ROAD
-TARRRRRRQWEN, get 'ere NOW.

OP I admire your GSOH about the ridiculous judging that goes on on here - hope you have some inspiration

I don't know if it falls into the required category and it isn't actually a name, but, I've always thought Izal would be a great boys name...

luckymummy2010 · 18/01/2010 18:23

Err isn't Izal mediacted toilet paper?

FimBOW · 18/01/2010 18:53

Tiffany shortened to Tiff

Tallulah

DrivenToDistraction · 18/01/2010 19:04

Yes, but if it wasn't it'd be an excellent name. Ney, a fabulous name.

Well, I think so anyway.

displayuntilbestbefore · 18/01/2010 19:10

Diesel for a boy
Chanelle for a girl

rosieposey · 18/01/2010 19:29

DrivenToDistraction · 18/01/2010 19:43

I know a Danique (girl)

Adair · 18/01/2010 20:07

Oh I love Diesel and Ariel. Dd would be beside herself if we named (fictional) dc3 that.

Alishanty · 18/01/2010 21:03

What about Mason?

coldtits · 18/01/2010 21:06
