I have thought of a name that I will call my daughter (If I ever have one) Do you like it?

Question

I have been wracking my brains for a name that I have never heard before and I have come up with the name of "Pencil" As my surname is Ryder if her mums maiden name is say Scott then her name will be Pencil Scott.Ryder. Fantastic. You may not like it but i bet that she will be the only girl in her school with that name although the other kids will probaly call her "Pen"

Tell me you like it?

Answer 1

You need to do the name test.  Try out your potential daughter's name as president, speaker for the house, etc.  If it sounds awkward there, then it is awkward.  I can't pass judgment on the name.

Answer 2

wow, people really don't take in to consideration how their kids will feel. you may think its funny but i can assure you she will hate it. do you think she will want to be 60 years old and telling people her name is pencil and her parents thought they were funny.

Answer 3

Yeah and when i have my next child I'm going to call him stapler. You like?

He will be the only child in school called this. What could possibly go wrong!?!?

Answer 4

sorry to tell you but i don't care for it . They might not call her pen the might tease her about her name.Sorry.

Answer 5

ha ha ha you are so funny for a 10 years old kid

and yes my name is a billion times better than the one you make you little troll

Answer 6

Chavs will copy you, you are right on that one,

Your poor Daughter,

Have you thought the other kids might say she, Pen & Inks = Stinks? ( cockney slang )

Answer 7

its quite charming,but have you considered Biro ??

Answer 8

I'm not sure sorry but pencil i mean do u want your daughter to feel embarrassed all of her life and u know that will be mean of u you if u want u can go to www.girlnames.com they have nice names u can go to this site it can help

Answer 9

lol she will indeed be the only one called pencil

but every time people say the word pencil she'll think it's her they want

what is it you want?

pencil

they'll think they'll mean her lol

but it is original

however as kids grow older they won't be as open and more prone to teaseing

and when they start learning about s*x they'll know what a pencil could also refer too and call her pencil ryder

Answer 10

i suppose its better than my hungarian aunties nieces name as her name is f.a.n.n.y i had to put those dots incase they blocked me saying it..... its hungarian like but in english its wierd calling this little girl f.a.n.n.y

ok i would call her penny if her name was pencil in school.

Answer 11

that would be  a shame on the poor girl, people will give her wise cracks about what shes gonna do wiv the pencil.... i suppose you could and people could just calle her penny

Answer 12

I don't wanna be mean or anything, but no. She will be teased her whole life, trust me! How about Penny?

Answer 13

Why in the world would you ever do that to your child? It's original, I'll give you that. But since when does original mean it's actually good? It sounds like pencil rider, like "Oh lets go ride some pencils." Boys are going to make jokes about her, and then her size will come in to play and they will make more. I think that name is just horrendous.

Oh, and BTW, I don't know any woman who will let her husband name her child PENCIL.

Answer 14

Sorry. I think that borders child abuse.

Pencil Ryder I ask you???

There is a reason it has never been used before.

If you wish to give your daughter an uncommon name, at least make sure it's an actual name!

Answer 15

WHO CARES IF SHE HAS A UNIQUE NAME OR NOT? she'll hate your guts for it ! c'mon now. she'll be teased to the death. i know your looking for a name that is a "first ever" but be reasonable here.

Answer 16

If you do change the spelling Pynsil or Pynsal

Answer 17

I suppose you could spell it Pencille, though personally I prefer Mobile (pronounced Mo-bee-lay). Isn't there a list though that they have at the registry office to check if you're calling your child an acceptable name? I don't think yours would be on it (or mine really).

Answer 18

Your poor child is all I can say!!

Answer 19

I don't like it. But that don't mean a thing as it is a matter of taste.

I would give you advice however. At choosing a name, you should first put your thoughts to the one you are naming and how it fits. What you think about a name should be second plan.

Answer 20

She would get bullied!!!

"Pencil have u got a pencil i can borrow hahaha"

or "Pencil can i use u....?"

Nice one i think she will love u for calling her that!

Answer 21

PENCIL hahahahahahahahahahahaha you guna use her to write on paper? SAD, and for your own information i like MY NAME GRACE!

Answer 22

Your an idiot!

Answer 23

I think you're an idiot honestly. If my parents named me pencil, or any other school supply for that matter, I would disown them.  Pencil Ryder?  God the jokes are just flooding in my head, especially high school aged jokes.

Answer 24

Pen as a nickname is cute.

Pencil is retarded.

And honestly - what's with the 'people have been following what i do and say for years' speech...who the h**l even are you?

somehow - i don't think 'pencil' is going to catch on.

Answer 25

I like i think its very unique and love the nickname Pen or Penny.People might think its funny but eventually they will get used to it.People might call her penelope though.

I LOVE IT!!!

LOVE IT

LOVE IT

ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!

Answer 26

Im Love-in It

Answer 27

I think you should met a woman with a more adequate surname if you are going to give her a sharp name like pencil !

Answer 28

I like your style. Besides, the way things are going with education, kids won't know what a pencil is in ten years. I was one of FIVE girls called Andrea in my class at school. I wish I'd had a unique name.....

Answer 29

Thats great! If she has a brother you can name him

Eraser. What an imagination!

Answer 30

saying it out loud i actually like it, but maybe with a different spelling? like Pensil Ryder...so that she doesnt get the mick taken out of her too much.

Answer 31

No, I think it's terrible. Who cares if nobody has ever heard it before? That doesn't make it a good name.

I won't be copying you or anyone else, either. I'm a woman, not a sheep.
