    Like Pish, I also don't like to be negative about names. It is important that the parents like the name. After a while everyone in the family gets used to a name and can't imagine the child being called anything else. And I have known some kids with some unusual names - Feather, Yogi, Chai...but I got used to them and it never made me feel negatively about the child.

    In relation to Pogue, my first thought was the band. Then I said it out loud a few times, and I wonder if it could get misheard as 'Poke'.

    I really like it - I love the band, and the name has a good ring to it.

    I am not a fan, sorry!
    Yes it is different and unusual, but I think it is just too weird.
    And TBH, it doesnt sound nice.
    Sorry!!
