Re: That's not a real name!
Braxton is a super common name over here. I know loads of them. In fact there were two of them in J’s Kindy class.

Re: That's not a real name!
As naff at it is ( sorry Braxtons), it’s another last name as first name isn’t it? I’m thinking of Toni Braxton

I know somebody Cock.ram. Women have married into this surname, taken it on themselves and given it to children. I mean, COME ON.

I think Timotei is male (“three other men...”) but what on earth were his/her parents thinking? I will call my imaginary next child Herbalessences.
It’s like a normal midlife crisis only with more chandeliers and foreign languages.

I'm sorry rosy, I deleted when I realised it clearly said he was one of three men and therefore most of my post made no sense. I did google Timotei as a name, but only got shampoo results. Possibly completely normal somewhere else but I bet he got the piss ripped out of him at school!

Re: That's not a real name!
It’s all good.
My youngest adopted step-sister had an odd taste in names for three of her six kids but she’s never resorted to shampoo for inspiration. Mind you, I wouldn’t be surprised if she had another, and all bets would be off on the name.![Lolling :lol:](./images/smilies/laugh.gif)

Re: That's not a real name!
The equivalent of Timothy in French (Timothée) is pronounced Timotei. One of my colleagues back in Brussels has a young son with that name. I had to try very hard not to laugh when I heard the name.

No Luna! That’s child abuse- how could the parents do that?

Will the real D.erek N.immo please stand up...
Daphne. A perfectly fine name until you spell it Dafni.
