Hurrah for all new arrivals!  I want to call Eyebrows Jnr George if it's a boy- but Mrs Eyebrows is having none of it.

Stupid woman- it's not as if she's even doing the hard bit...

;)

Congrats!

"I want to call Eyebrows Jnr George if it's a boy"

Do you not like children then JEB ? You do realise that no males are called George any more ?
Only girls can get away with that(Short for Georgina,mostly, I think) - your child will be unremosfuly bullied for having such an old fashioned and, importantly, boring name.Give in to Mrs Eyebrows for your potential boy's sake.

Oh,and congrats for those who are due it!

Congrats indeed.  I'm very happy for the man.

JEB, what does the missus want to call the little fella, then?

About my little anti George rant earlier, it is an unfasionable name and all, but George Weston does sound right, if you know what I mean, and will probably be able to get away with it.
George EyeBrows on the other hand...

Too late to back-pedal now, genius!

As it goes, we were at some parentcraft gubbins last night and were told that George is *extremely* popular for boys at the moment- which is why I will be happy to settle on using it as a middle name instead.  If we have a boy.  Mrs Eyebrows is convinced that we're having a girl anyway and has been busy picking out girls' names.  Her only real preference for a boy's name at the minute is that it not be George!

And Peter, I will not be calling my son 'Timmy' Timson. It's just not going to happen...

If it's a boy, will you call him 'Mister'?

"your child will be unremosfuly bullied for having such an old fashioned and, importantly, boring name"

Who by? Etyon? Tarquin? Armani? Quentin? Farquar?

Huge congrats Chris. Great name.

Well, I won't call him "Master".

Congratulations Chris; and welcome to the world, George Weston.

Not being a follower of such things, I was rather caught unawares by the sudden upsurge in popularity of the name 'George'. See, that's the kind of thing that can happen when you go starting wars all over the place.

By the way, I think Etyon's a lovely name, and it's one I'd not heard of before.

No son of mine would get landed with such a burden; but still, lovely name.    :D

Some other George Westons...







And George Weston was the name of the hero in one of the better Asimov short stories.

So, overall, good name and congratulations!
