Quite common around these parts, usually shortened to Con or Neily, not as bad as another of Greek origin, which is less common these days for some reason...

That's cos people don't know how to pronounce it anymore. It's not how you think.
An-EE-us.

Yeah, I suppose even with the correct pronunciation it's still too close for comfort. Couldn't do that to a child

Of all the GoT names I reckon Brienne is probably the nicest for a kid. If you were stuck and a big fan. The rest of them I couldn't bring myself to name a dog.

I really like Tyrion. But we've already established on this thread that I'm not fit to name a child, so don't judge me too harshly.

Are we sure they weren't asking for the music to be sped up but just mispronouncing it?

If you’ve given your kids “unique” or “quirky” names, this thread probably isn’t for you

It's a fact that this thread is full of cnuts, I'm just calling it the way it is.

On the one hand you have empty-headed goons complaining about children called Molly, or about older fellahs called Cornelius, while on the other hand you have spiteful, smuggy twats desperate to feel superior to working class people or 'dole scum that watch too much reality TV'.

Enjoy.

I've only seen one cnut on this thread so far.

I was just reading about the collapse of Jamie Oliver's restaurant group in the UK (1,000 people will lose their jobs, poor devils) and came across this:-

Jamie and Jools have five children: - Poppy Honey Rosie, 17; Daisy Boo Pamela, 15; Petal Blossom Rainbow, 10; Buddy Bear Maurice, 8; and River Rocket Blue Dallas, 2.

The pair of them should be locked up for child abuse.

No, no, no.
We are not discussing the people attached to the names, just the name itself.
Should every person on earth called Molly be personally offended cause someone on Boards.ie doesn't like it? Grow up.

Just read an article today ,the mother is called dilly, her daughter is called bay.
theres dozens of nice name s out there,
so now people are just using random words for names .
i watch a youtuber sometimes , her daughter is called clark,
why in hell would you use a mans name for a girl.
When theres loads of good girl names out there .
its also slightly confusing .
in the future if she send s a letter to someone ,fills in a form some people might think she is male .

I think I’ve posted this before but I know of someone who spelled their sons name Maison instead of Mason to make it more ‘original’, and every time I see it written down all I see is the French word for house.

I had a grand aunt called Molly, the most cantankerous old b****h that ever wore shoe leather, smoked like a trouper, always coughing, blackened teeth and ulcerated legs, we used to call her "Hairy Molly" behind her back, nothing will ever make the name attractive to me.

I heard someone calling their daughter "Madison" on the street recently, what a horrible name, firstly it sounds masculine, second it's a surname, but mostly all I could think of was that sickly sweet drink marketed at women in the 70's, I took one look at the child's mother and my suspicions were confirmed, yes I am a snob.

The Vauxhall Nova didn't sell in Spain.
No Va in Spanish means "Won't Go".
It became the Corsa.

My better half you grew up in the States finds it bizarre that so many middle aged and older Irish women were christened with saints surnames like Magella and Goretti being common but more bizzare ones that I've come across are Mazzarella, Loyola, Alacoque, Laboura ( that's right) and Cabrini, and one for the boys, Bosco, these are all Italian and French surnames.

Sardonicat

Alacoque.? Oh dear God, could they not draw the line of life long penance by naming at Assumpta or Gobnait?

Cork, sorry that should be Majella with a j not g.
I was informed by the woman called Laboura, that her mother had great devotion to St Catherine Labouré.
