Jo The reason co-op didn't work first time is probably because you had a full stop before the Co!! THE WORD D O T DIDN'T WORK EITHER)!! I knew a boy at school (many moons ago) called Beverley! I have a grand-daughter called Taylor Louise. I didn't like the first bit when she was tiny cos it's also a surname so I called her by her full name. Now I'm used to it, I just call her Taylor or Tay for short. It's also a boys name. I have a grandson called Jordan, which is also a girls name. There are lots of names which are suitable for both boys and girls these day. Lynne

I heard of one child called Ophelia - I rather leave the surname to your imagination no need to say more.

On the GRO index there are Asda's! I thought those double barrelled Christian names were so yesterday - Helen-Claire, Sarah-Louise (even the naff Coronation Street character has dropped the last name) a rough type in town was shouting to her daughter - Bobbi-Lee (if she's Bobbly perhaps they need a Remmingtons fuzzaway)!! Oh well it provides entertainment!

Hmmm, yeah I can just see someone naming their kid 'MFI' or 'DFS'. Would have been funny had IKEA been registered as a boy's name then if some female happened to ask someone whether he had a sixpack they could reply no, but he's got a flatpack! ::boom boom::
