AndWhat? Posted 17 November 2016 Posted 17 November 2016 Paul. I swear I heard somewhere that a new baby hasn't been called Paul for like 3 years in the UK no idea if that's actually true.

It is absolutely moronic and, in my opinion, tantamount to child abuse. Examples of baby names I have come across over the last 3 years : Anaai Zacchaius Tai'bo but why? why do you care what other people call their kids? why is Steve, or Tristan, or Emily any better?

Unless .... someone who couldn't spell and had a mule ... and wanted to call it after that female tennis player .... Marion whats-her-name.

Well, largely because a name has a large and direct impact on a persons life, and I think calling children ridiculous show-case names is a pretty poor judgement call. Maybe I'm a traditionalist, but I don't see the benefit in inventing a name with apostrophes and double vowels just to make you feel special and unique as parents. But whatever, I'm sure a child would grow up loving being called Th'wane.

Though now with so many having different. I imagine less hassle Then again you can always change it by deed poll. My daughter took her "typical" first name moved it to her 2nd name and changed her first to a quite unusual name on her 18th. B Great idea as her new name is who she feels she is. Not some arbitrary name her parents liked in the 80s
Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo Posted 18 November 2016 Posted 18 November 2016 Nah give it 10 years and loads of these will have made a comeback. Old fashioned names are becoming more popular and because people like to be wacky they'll go even older fashioned and there'll be Beatrice, Agnes, Cornelius, Mavis all over the place.

That's ridiculous I'd consider calling my baby Paul (if I was having one), good solid name and difficult to take the piss out of

TiffToff88 Posted 18 November 2016 Posted 18 November 2016 Has anyone here had a child in the last few months and named them after one of our title winning players? A friend of mine had a baby a week or so back and called him Kasper

A friend of mine had a baby a week or so back and called him Kasper I remember going to a game at either St Mary's or the Riverside a few years ago and reading about a couple of supported Saints and Boro naming their child Juninho Le Tissier.
