will anyone ever be called roger again?

[erics44]

what were going through peoples minds when they were naming their children in the olden days?

who in their right mind would call their child Roger? or Barry?

[ryanman]

Good thread.
I think there will be 7 more Rogers born in the UK in total.
Same old names did make a comeback - George, erm, a few others, but Roger didn't make the cut.
I wonder how many new 'Waynes' there will be. Not an old name but surely completely discredited.

[Memphis]

What about Keith?

For me Keith was dead and buried as a name. I only ever knew one Keith and he was a twat so had to beat him up. Im sure though with the popularity of Mr Lemon there will be a few Keith's popping out. Probably 4.

We've got a Wayne in work. Good looking chap, good at football. All the ingredients are there for a decent bloke but something is weighing heavily on his mind, you can see it. Must be the name.

Maybe work only employed him to qualify for some equal opportunities register?

Arnold
Arthur
Frank
Fredrick
George
Harold
Henry
Keith
Nigel
Norman
Oscar
Roger
Stanley
Theodore
Victor
Walter (my granddad name)

I'm sure I missed some but just a list of idiot names hat are so outdated or horrible.

[Beanz]

I have always thought that Graham is a lovely name for a girl.

[Andre]

Nigel takes the cake.

Makes me think of this dick.

From the that list George and Oscar will survive. Harry will pick up as well.
Alfie seems popular at the minute as well. Expect middle names to be old school as people stick parents/grandparents there.

i cant watch the vid at work, one of my good mates is called Nigel

[Master]

Names become fashionable so Doris, Ethal and Betty will come back!

Names like Sebastian and Archibald need shooting.

I have always like names like Ethan and Fabian.

[VictorCharlie]

To me, Nigel is the quintissential British name. I guess that is what I get from watching too much Famil Guy. Is it common for black britons to use infuse African culture into their children's names? I went to school with a lot of Shaquitas or a common name with a "La" thrown on the front ie LaMichael.

That must be an African American thing.
