HELP with a potential new name for Chico?


OK, I'm not sure if Chico really floats my boat as a name Just been chatting about it with OH who intelligently suggested Groucho . . . he's a Marx Bros fan I like Theo as a potential name as it has a similar balance to Chico.

Would love some alternative suggestions for a name - I don't want to move it too far from Chico as I don't want to confuse the poor fella, but just something a little more fitting and a little less, well, whimsical!

Maybe we can put it to a vote early part of next week ?

Hmmm will have a think I did actually think of a name for him while collecting him as the name Chico did not suit him in my opinion.

But its not like Chico will have a think about a name similar to Chico.

Karen, if it's a name not like Chico I'd still like to hear it. I'm sure he'd get used to it quickly enough, and if it's right for him them he'd HAVE to get used to it; poor thing

Re: HELP with a potential new name for Chico?


Funny, I was thinking about that last evening: Chico just doesn't really fit with Fifi and Balie...and he doesn't look like a Chico. That said, I can't think of a better one, but will let my subconscious work on it a bit...

Now see that's exactly what OH and I said about his name lol, he needed something more dignified. He thought something like William or Colonel lol, 'cause he looks like one!

He does look dignified in his pics. Pasha, Roi, Louis (French pronunciation), or maybe another Sultan .....

With Sultan I'd have to corrupt it to Sultana just my odd sense of humour I suppose . . . I can just see Chico being called 'my little sultana . . .' as a term of endearment
