I wasn't too sure when my friend told me they'd called their DS 'Riley', but I like it now - it might help that he's a real cutie

Not.

I know two dogs named Riley (retriever and Irish setter), and one unfortunate little girl.

Not. Cheap and trendy. Although I might be influenced by a woman I know who named her son Rylee.

Definitely not.

Quite common - in all senses of the word!

Not.
No surname is nice as a first name.

Lol, ds came home from his first day at secondary school and announced that he was friends with Riley and Taylor.

Dh thought the boys were being referred to by their surnames!

We know children called: Kelsey, Taylor x2, Devan, Finlay, Riley.

No to the lot!

(btw they are girl, boy and girl, girl, boy, boy in case you were wondering )
