Idiotically we called our oldest Captain Kangaroo (after too many watches of Pulp Fiction). :ffsparr::shootself

Countin' flowers on the wall
That don't bother me at all
Playin' solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one
Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me I've nothin' to do

Oldest was going to be Ella (old family name) but mother-in-law said only black people and cleaners are called Ella so Anna Rose Ella (notice Ella is now in the top ten). Daniel Charles (no longer in top ten)23 and Arthur Howard 21 tomorrow (hope god father on here is reading). Arthur now in top 10. Naming fashions huh?

No children for us, but two nephews which is more than enough to cope with.
Have a cat called Bertie, as he's all-sorts of types in him.
If that qualifies.

* Childrens' names

I have always though this but I regularly see the Formula One team and other plurals of what already looks like a plural being referred to as the Williamsis rather than just the Williams regardless of how many cars they are talking about

The plural should always have ‘ on the end too rather than being written as “belonging to”

Not explaining this very well but hopefully you get my drift.

He is wrong children is the plural of child so it is children's names. Names belonging to the children. Spoken language is quite often different to how it should be written.

Yes I think in retrospect that you are right but I stand by my other point :smile:
