I didn't notice many people choosing Romeo. Mind you, Bob Geldof's kids have worse names: Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches, Pixie and Heavenly Tiger Lilly. Now that's cruel.


My great-grandmother was called Kerrenhappuch. It's a biblical name. I'm so gald it didn't become a family tradition!!

I think peaches is quite nice.


If you take a look here, Romeo took a huge jump in popularity :)

Or definitely a girls' name, and pronounced something like 'Cruth' - just makes you sound like you have a bad lisp!


I had a selection of ancestors (female) named Philadelphia but I didn't think I'd revive the tradition.

Unusual is fine, but giving a girl's name to a boy?
