Kids Names???

[melv16]

Whilst walking in the Peak District this morning I came across a father with his 3 kids.

The were called; Fox, River and Hunter! What possesses parents to name their children after mammal, a geological feature and brand of riding boot?😁

[Hazlinny]

I've heard of River and Hunter but never Fox as a first name.  River popular in Hollywood.

[Tilly2]

I like River and Hunter. Not sure about Fox.

The're better than some of the daft names that 'celebrities' use.

I know a child called Willow. The name really suits her.

Maybe he was using What Three Words. 😊

How's about weasel, oxbow and Adidas?😁

I taught a child once named Levi, after the jeans, not the Biblical character!

Fox Mulder... (The X Files) only time I've heard it as well... only Hunter was a Gladiator... familiar with River though.

My mate's newly hatched granddaughter goes by Hunter.

I have 3 great great  nephews, Harrison, Hunter and Henley. Their sister is Hattie. Don't know how some folks minds work.

bit insular - but has no one heard of the presidents wayward son, Hunna Biden ?

River as in River Phoenix

Only Hunter I know of...

My granddaughter is named Meadow. I hated it at first but now it grown on me and I can't imagine her been named anything else now.

Hunter S Thompson? River Phoenix? But the only Fox I can think of is Mulder.

Fox?  Aristocratic, surely?

River? Cults, drugs and Hollywood, maybe?

Hunter?  Illegally owning a gun while a drug user might not go down too well with the authorities but having a powerful father might possibly help:

When my daughter told me she was going to call her daughter Willow, I couldn't understand why she would want to call her after a tree, but it has become quite popular over the years.

Fox Glove has been around for millions of years!

[10ClarionSt]

I know somebody called Willow. She's the daughter of a former Man Utd player, who won CL winners medal.

@2.39..named after a tree - but has become "poplar" surely?

[DarceyK123]

I mix with a lot of doggy people and Willow appears to be one of the most popular names for female dogs lately.

[calmck]

Some parents do think though. My sister was going to be named so her initials would be V D. They changed it!

We live close to a school and through sometimes overhearing playtime or outdoor activities have become aware of the new names.

There are no Rivers or Foxes but I have heard a Hunter, there's always a Willow, and this summer there's Elsie, Arthur and Dot. I feel like I'm living in a time warp!
