Right I am never having another baby but friend and her hubbie having a little disagreement as she reckons that somewhere in the uk there must be a child called Wolf!!

He won't have it but we are sure there must be and want to prove him wrong - where do I find out??

WOuld so love it if anyone on here knew a wolf or had a child called wolf - obviously a boy child or it would be wolverine!!

I think it's a cool name, could always go for Wolfgang if you're not brave enough.
And I think Luke means wolf or dog if you take it back to the Ancient Greek.

the namewolf

Well, there's always Wolfie Smith of the Tooting Popular Front.

Someone posted a link a while back to a website on which you could look up names and find out how common they were in the UK.

sorry that didn't work - was the bounty site - the text read....

Your name, wolf, is in position number 10401 in our 2007 list.

Last year it was in position number 7061

Your name has dropped 3340 places since last year

Bobby Gillsepie (Primal Scream lead singer) has a son called Wolf

Troutpout · 26/03/2007 12:20

Taught a 'Dog boy' once

Marina · 26/03/2007 12:22

As Hallgerda says, for some of us this name will forever be associated with the Tooting Popular Front

GreenandBlackOtter · 26/03/2007 12:23

'Foxie'

ImmiesMum · 26/03/2007 12:24

I met a woman on Saturday night who was called Peregrine!
She didn't like it so changed it to Twinkle.
Bizzare.

lionheart · 26/03/2007 12:24

I wnet to school with a Wolfgang.

beansprout · 26/03/2007 12:25

Ds's name has gone up 8968 places in the last year!

Alas, it is not "Wolf" though. Perhaps some German or Austrian MNers could assist?

Marina · 26/03/2007 12:25

snurk GABO! That beret/sideburns combo was rather fetching though...

GreenandBlackOtter · 26/03/2007 12:25

showing our age marina!!

cupcakes · 26/03/2007 12:33

there there, don't cry, wolf.

MrsBadger · 26/03/2007 12:35

85 people called Wolf on the electoral register in the UK

fascinating little site

JonesTheSteam · 26/03/2007 12:38

That's a fab site.

My dad is one of only 4, and my mum is unique.

I would have been unique too, before I got married.

Love it!!!!!

CadburyCremeSquonk · 26/03/2007 12:41

That is brilliant - there are 142 of me, but only 20 if I take dp's name!

WanderingTrolley · 26/03/2007 12:43

[pedantic shudder]

ImmiesMum · 26/03/2007 12:44

What a brilliant site.
I'm one of three!- makes me want to find the others.

cupcakes · 26/03/2007 12:44

Wolf

MrsBadger · 26/03/2007 12:44

I specifically didn't type the name of the site because my internal pedant wouldn't let me...

cupcakes · 26/03/2007 12:45

I'm one of three too.
