See I wouldn't name a girl Rio, my neice is called Milan xx

oh i dont think chelseas chavvy atall x

My sisters name is Chelsea lol! And maras daughter is Chelsea too xx

I think alot of 'chav' names depend on where you live and who you know with that particular name?

There always seem to be a phase where everyone calls there kids the same thing here, so some people try to be 'different' and end up with some random names!

ooh ive opened a can of worms here

I just don't like names that aren't proper names, there's a girl at my mum and baby group called London and when I was pg my midwife said someone had just called their little boy Flash!

i guess it depends on what you call 'not proper'.Some might say my boys dont have 'proper' names as they are so unusal, but i promise you they are not made up!

To me a chav name would be something like Chardonnay or as someone said above somewhere Destiny xx

i agree totally!

I guess the right thing to do as a parent is to never bestow a name that will entice a school yard ass kicking! xxx

I think it is an area thing.
Around here the chavvy names are Chantelle, Channel, Charmaine

Lol Pen!

i just asked OH what is the chaviest name he can think of and he says chelsea for a girl and kai for a boy !
he dont like mckenzie either ,, thats what i wanted to call danielle
we are just discussing names that are barrelled with lea/lee/leigh can be quite chavvy
charlie for a girl
brittany !
cher,,
i guess it really does depend on personal taste and experience on ppl you know of with your hated name ,

it also depends on if you like traditional names or something thats a bit different (within reason of course!)

Personally a tradional name was never an option for us,although we both like a lot of traditional names we just didnt want to use them for our children.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Errrrm Blanket? lol

he doesn't have a real name!

Michael Jackson II i think

I think this thread could be risky. It all depends on your own personal context. For example Caelyn's middle name is Sandi which seems incredibly chavvy until you know the reason it was chosen. My mum is Dianne and Neils mum is Sandra - San-Di. Shes named for her grandmothers.

I think you're right Kell it depends where you're from as well, Im in Durham so most people have strong Geordie accents, so when they're shouting for Destiny and the like it just sounds funny!

Some people probably think Ava's middle name is chavvy, it's all a matter of taste!

i like the name kai for a boy but wudnt actually call my son it!
i like unusual names, i wanted to call evan keir but cos my nephew is called kerr we thought it was to similar
oh wanted to call him cameron and i let him go thru with it the whole pregnancy cos everyone thougth i was havin a girl then 2wks before i had him i heard evan on tv and fell in love with the name!

i hate names like that are named after a city or a fruit thats jst to odd, well mayb not all cities i guess some are fitting!

Lol this is my daughter@ Torquay

See if this beanie is a girl i like cameron for a girl. Ive seen it spelled Camryn which is def more feminine and Caelyn and Camryn seems nice but im worried it looks chavvy

I think Camryn is a lovely name, I wouldn't class that chavvy at all.

I really wanted to call Caitlin Cord if she was a boy.

My OH, family & friends laughed and said it was like calling a child rope or string. I asked about it on AB and most agreed it was stupid. Looking back I dont think I would have done it but if I ever get PG again I do think id put it on my name list and ponder again much to OHs horror!
