Anyone know another Tasker.....?

[Toggy]

Surely you can't choose a name based on these sharp comments?

Look up Sir Tasker Watkins for a truely inspirational Tasker

[Sonnet]

I know a Tasker...I always presumed he was called after a "surname"

But the Prep School Mums called hiam Tasker ( not Tarsker) even though we're in the south!

(He is a lovely boy BUT Don't do it I say!)

Love the comments! And he's 10 months old. It's Welsh. The head of the RFU used to be Sir Tasker Watkins. He has a statue in Cardiff. It's a name I came across with DH a long time ago - about 15 years in fact - long before we had kids. And my mother also used to talk about Tarka the otter which used to give me very cold feet, but now that Tasker is here - it all seems quite normal. And because we live in the Middle East - everyone has such funny names, noone bats an eyelid.

[Buntyray]

And Sonnet - so pleased to hear there's another and yes, we pronounce it the same.

Tasker? Sounds like a lower managment job title at multi-national monolith corporation. Have another go.

MrsJohnson, love Amelie. You may want to consider your own thread as it will be hard to sort out which responses are to you and which to the OP.

I knew a horse of this name!

[venusonarockbun]

stupid-sounding beyond belief.

[Pineapplechunks]

Awful.

[remaincalm]

Not for me I'm afraid.

Makes me think of Talisker, which is a bit like naming your baby Glen Morangie. Sorry!

Ridiculous
