Are any of your children called anything unusual?

[kerriesmum]

My daughter Kerrie has the unusual middle name cydonia (my great grandmothers name)
my son Ryan has the middle name Harrison (after Harrison ford) my late hubby was a huge fan.

[ummmm]

Nope.....pretty bog standard.

My eldest son might disagree though...his middle name is Edwin...and he hates it :-))

[hau kola]

not that unusal but my daughter is called Andie after my brother Andy who was killed in an accident.She hates her name but understands why i called it her.

[kerriesmum]

I think Andie is lovely for a girl.
Wasnt there a singer in the 1980s with the name Edwin Starr?.

[ummmm]

That's a nice name for a girl.

i had to laugh the other the other day, talking to an elderly lady who helps out at a nursery. she said 'i can't believe the names of some of the children...... one of them is called Liquorice and shes not even black. lol

[kerriesmum]

my middle name is Hilary ive always hated it.

[ummmm]

:o0

[kerriesmum]

Liquorice omg are you serious wow thats a new one.

[hau kola]

Yes, Edwin Starr but he was late 60s early 70s.

[kerriesmum]

I was most disheartened when I gave birth prematurely and the midwife asked, what are you naming her? I said Hazel - her reply- oh like the tree, thankfully she loves her name .

[ummmm]

Edwin was his grandads middle name. I wouldn't give him his grandads first name (not my dad)

[Buenchico]

The guy who I think of as my son (although he's not biologically - long story!) is called Dax. (His middle name is Alexander - I doubt that many people have two Xs in their names!)

A woman I worked with had the middle name Arethusa, apparently it was the ship her father served on in WW2.

[ummmm]

I've said it loads of times on here now but my grandad is Chestnut Hugh....my nan is Agnes Sinclaire.

He has a sister called Crayton.

Outside of my family I've never met anyone called Chestnut, Sinclaire or Crayton.

[kerriesmum]

wow sounds like a list of names Victoria Beckham may call her children ummmm .

[craft1948]

One of my ancestors had the christian name Snowball............

[Buenchico]

It's interesting, Ummmm, that your family has a lady called Crayton. The film director, Crayton Robey, is noted for his contribution to gay cinema but he's most definitely a fella' ;-)

One of my sister's ex boyfriends had the middle name Lancelot, lol. I quite like it.

[ummmm]

She's definitely a lady. She's 89 now....and Chestnut is 87. The only two still alive out of 11.

Kerriesmum...lol....My dads side of the family have normal name. I think the most unusual is Bartholemew.
