The name we've picked is for a dog!

[AliB]

Bosley, Bailey, Baxter, Bellah... what's with this two syllable B-names being accused of being dogs names?!!!

Actually our dog was called Bindi... hmmm!

Hey I was actually tempted at one time to stick with our foetal nickname - Scooby. Now THAT'S a dog's name, no arguments there!!!

[~clover~]

Ok..dogs names we have in the family, or have had.
My 2 are currently Henry & Bella. Mum & Dad's is Wally. MIL's are Belle & Ruby.
Past dogs - Jess, Maggie, Molly, Lucy, Mick, Kristy, Isabel, Zeke.... How many of those are 'dog' names?

I think the only dogs names we had/have are Mooch, Tipsy, Sooky. I knew a dog called Rusty for years when I was younger & thought it wierd to find out my bestie's cousin named her DS that, but now I really really like it!

ETA - When DS was born, we had the dog Jess.....then named him Jesse....lol. It took 4 months for someone to pick up on it though. It was purely an accident! We weren't going to use Jesse just for that reason, lol.

.... i'm not a big fan but having said that it could grow on me

I too thought of Charlie's Angels Boss but nothing more of it !!

[nickers]

go for it! if you guys like it, i havent actually heard of any dogs called bosley but know of dogs called Chloe, Max, Oscar, Toby, Charlie and many many other names that are quiet common boys and girls names!

I love the name Oscar and it was on our shortlist as a very sure contender until I started to run things past people............
then I got ''oh yeah that snice but my mums/friends/nans/cousins/sisters dog is called Oscar''

Has put a bit of a dampner on it and has slipped down past others but I am keeping it as I do feel if he looks like and Oscar then so be it. I love it!

[~clover~]

Shar - I know of heaps of Oscar's! My first thought was Sesame Street though when I first hear it, lol. Now I'm used to it.

we had anabelle picked out as our girl name and when i told my mum she said it sounded like a name for a cow.
