DP wants child to be called

[thenamegame]

He thinks it would be brilliant. The surname is "Dix". Your comments please...

If this is a troll, it's not funny because my DS1 is called Dizzy. Are you getting at me the name game?

No, I'm not trying to get at anyone. Sorry if I have inadvertantly offended, particularly if your child is called Dizzy.

I have changed my talk name from normal, not because I am a regular poster and people are likely to know me, but only because I am in the early stages of pg, and didn't want any comments from my antenatal group about it being a bit early for name discussions.

Thank you all for your comments, even if some of them are a little wicked

You could co shakesperian for a girl

Ophelia Dix

lionheart, is Dizzy short for something, or is it his actual Christian name? Did you have him christened?

so what did you end up calling you last child ?

oh, thenamegame, I was just kidding 'cos I thought you were as well. Sorry.

Actually, my DS's do have unusual names, but not this one.

FWIW and since I didn't kill the thread after all, it's the combination that rules it out, isn't it?

No no you must call him Otto Dix

Thank fuck for that

Have heard worse.

A mate of mine once taugh a 'Truly -Scrumptious' Mother complained that he teachers had shortened it to Truly

lol Greensleeves (good show of concern, though).

dizzy gillespie's real name was John - how about that?

Don't want a one syllable first name with a one syllable surname really, so John is out.

DS1 is Alfie Oliver Dix

Thankfully, I got DP to be fairly sensible in the end!

I love the Otto Dix page!
