    Hugh - terrible rhyming names?

    OK Hugh is one of my favourite names on our list so far. However DD is at a stage where she loves rhyming everything so when she heard me talking about Hugh she started saying Pooh!

    Does anyone have a Hugh or know a Hugh? Is it a problem? Is it terrible to give a name that could so easily be changed into something negative by other kids?

    I think any name can be turned into something by kids hun - Hugh is a GREAT name, I really like it! FWIW my kids talk about Poo ALL the time, they think it is hilarious to say POO POO and WEE WEE - we just ignore it, distract and talk about something else, novelty will eventually wear off!

    I have a little cousin named Hugh. I think it is a lovely name.

    DD was going to be a Hugh if she was a DS, so we love it.
    I'm with Tan though, mine think anything to do with poo is humorous, and it's offered as often as she can lol.

    Kids will find something nasty to rhyme with EVERY name if they are so inclined. If you love Hugh, go for it!
