Sebastian

blowninonabreeze · 23/03/2010 16:42

Milo and seb - very cool. (as long as you don't mind seb)

Or bas - also very cool

Just google Remy and you get lots of sites for Human Hair Extensions. Yuck.

Don't like Sebastian either sorry. My bf used to have a partner with this name. He was really weird and she ended up having to get an injunction on him.

I am biased but Sebastian is a great name.

BridesheadRegardless · 23/03/2010 16:53

Sebastian. I love this name and have ever since I first watched Anthony Andrews in Brideshead revisted.

ChippyMinton · 23/03/2010 16:54

There are quite enough Sebastians thank you

Oh go on then, it is the best name after all.

I'm due ds2 in 3 months.I already have an Ellis.I've been on here asking about the name Remy!I really want Remy Alexander and I'm trying to convince dh!
I love Remy but I worry about people thinking of the drink and laughing behind my back...Very difficult thinking of boys names
Personally don't like Sebastian.Sounds harsh.

blijemuts · 23/03/2010 17:06

I'm the proud 'owner' of a DS Sebastian. It gets shortened to Bas and Seb a lot but he says that means he can choose between 3 names!! Love it though.

I love Remy. I think the nns for Sebastian all sound like dermatological problems. Remy is cool in a very French way, but not fancified.

CinderellaRach · 23/03/2010 17:43

Go for Remy!!!I love it!(Ps I remember us talking on my thread and you liked it then)!!!
Does your dh like it??Trying to convince mine grrrr..

MmeLindt · 23/03/2010 17:44

I prefer Sebastian.

blogpage · 23/03/2010 17:45

Remy

moshie · 23/03/2010 17:49

Sebastian

Tyson86 · 23/03/2010 17:52

Sebastian for def, I like Remy but it is the name of the rat from ratatouille (sp?)

brimfull · 23/03/2010 17:53

I thought Remy was a girls name

I like both names...that's helpful isn't it?

loobylu3 · 23/03/2010 17:57

I like Sebastian too, although Remy does have a similar style to Milo and reminds me of the film 'Ratatouille'

LC200 · 23/03/2010 17:59

I love Remy, but sadly my surname is Martin...

Message from DS:
Let's have more Sebastians, so it gets more popular and I'll be able to buy stuff from the seaside shops with my name on. Thank you.
