First names you would never call a child of yours?

John, James, Andrew, David... I like originality 

Ah say Owen, what's up wi Andrew.

for the record, my name means " manly godlike warrior beside the cliff".

When The Boy(poor name I know!😁) played Junior Rugby, we had an away game at Henley.
3 of the opponent's were called Tarquin, Hugo and Ferdinand.....
Those 3 will do for starters!
 
Harry, Dele, Son, Mousa, Vincent, Christian, Hugo, Erik, Moussa, Victor, Toby, Danny, Kyle, Eric 😉
 
Any of those used by Jamie Oliver.

Baby names given by self indulgent parents that ignore the fact that little Poppy Tulip will at some point have to go to school, make friends, get older, try to get a job. None of these are helped by giving them cutesy wutsey names.
 
I remember when my son was in nursery,he came home one day & said a girl called Honey was picking on him😳
No way was I going to his teacher & saying that a girl called Honey was picking on him.
Man up son!
 
Any of the names that for centuries were perfectly good surnames, some with a certain trade heritage, that have now been changed into first names by them across the pond.

Therefore: Mason, Taylor, Jackson, Carter, Mackenzie etc...

Genius post. You'll find these names are always shrieked out by screeching mothers. Don't know why they can't speak calmly but apparently it is impossible when your child has one of these names.
