Help with Baby Name

[pinkmoon]

My middle name is Thursday because when I was born I was so ugly my dad looked at me and said to my mum "let's call it a day"

[Sam Flynn]

No contest, it has to be "Mog Cheeks"

Hi Barnaby.

I have to vote for 'Burgho'.

Has a nice Irish ring to it.

And it will function as a sort of "secret handshake" all through your child's life.

Best regards,
Archaic

NB: DISCLAIMER-
This suggestion is not meant to indicate any reference to, or endorsement of, The Official Ripper Secret Cabal Handshake...

Which as we all know, is very tricky to perform properly. (Sam flubs it all the time.)

Thanks! We don't know the sex yet but we have a girl's name (and unrelated to the Ripper) picked out. But for the boy's name I keep threatening to go in a Ripper direction.

I'm toying with Case as a first name.

Case Abberline
Case Montague
Case Warren
Case Miller (also a nice beer reference!)
Case London

Nooooo, don't do it, Barnaby!

Case may be nice and easy for people to spell correctly, but just think what the kids at school will call him - Suit Case at best and Nut Case at worst.

But definitely pick a name that he won't spend half his life having to spell out for everyone.

I quite like Fred (after Abberline).

Or Jack London?

Love,

Caz

Fred's a nice name, and one that you don't see that many of these days.

[Sam Flynn]

Fred's a nice name.

Well, you should know, Ginger

How about John Neil...or Neil John...she'll never even guess...

All the best

no,no,no,no,no and no again

Please don't give your child a name linked to the ripper I think you will regret it .

[Sam Flynn]

What about a combi-name, like "Pearly Bagster", "Eagle Crow" or "Kidney Fountain"?

Mog Cheeks still my favourite, though.

Of course I'm not giving him/her a name that is directly linked to the murderer. In any event, wife has nixed these ideas too and so we still cannot agree on a name. In the end it might be Unknown Local.

[Barnaby]

Strangely, I just realized that many years ago I briefly dated a girl named "Courtney Miller."

Reminds me of my first love, Anne Berrystreet

Charles Paul is on my list for other reasons, but it also fits nicely here!

Make sure you let us know when the sprog arrives.

[Barnaby]

Not until October but we should know the sex in either less than a week or in a month, the earlier being if the doctor does an ultrasound this time around and the baby isn't modest.

Of course, if it's a girl, the theme is off because we have already agreed on a name. No connection except I guess the guttersnipe role she once played.

I do already have a three-year-old boy who is totally into Scooby Doo and catching "bad guys" and "villains." A few more years and he will be posting here, no doubt.
