Momentum are getting stronger

All voters are equal, but some are more equal than others.

What somebody chooses to call their children is a absolutely nothing to do with anyone else, particularly sneery people on here.

I agree nellie and if we all did that, we would have to criticise an awful lot of people!

Abuse of politicians for personal decisions, like appearance, sexual orientation, or naming a child as they choose, just demonstrates pettiness.

It is when you've got nothing else to contribute to the discussion niggly. And these are the same posters who get arsey when posters "don't stick to facts". Sigh.

Going on and on and on and on and on aboutit shows nothing to say either, so you may as well let the thread sink..

I assume the latest link to voxpox was an attempt to mock the name of Rees Moggs sixth child?

At least he wasn't advised which name to choose by the advisor who has advised Corbyn to vote for someone named Marcel to win a programme called .love Island

Indeed, if all posters stopped posting when they found they were repeating themselves or talking round in circles, many threads would shrink away.

Let a thread on Momentum sink? Why? we have had equally unpleasant topics on other threads

A couple of centuries ago, when all educated people learnt Latin, calling a child Sixtus would not have caused anyone to blink. Unusual names are popular at the moment, Perhaps he will start a new fashion for Latin ones?

Some worse ones from 1875 - www.britishbabynames.com/blog/historic-names/

And curiosities of the 18th Century - www.britishbabynames.com/blog/2011/06/curiosities-of-the-eighteenth-century.html

Just think - he could have chosen Onesiphorus.

The other children's full names are Alfred Wulfric Leyson Pius, Thomas Wentworth Somerset Dunstan, Peter Theodore Alphege, Anselm Charles Fitzwilliam and Mary Anne Charlotte Emma Rees-Mogg.

As you are still going on about children's names.

How touching that you know so much about him...

No, you are durhamjen ......nobody cares.

I rsther like Armageddon Danbury , interesting link Elegran, thank you

Back to Momentum anyone?

If Sixtus has four names as well, that is 24 among the lot of them. Must take him ages to fill out a census form.

Which itself is a bit Latiny.

Does he still take his nanny with him when canvassing?

Time to go and eat. I'll leave the names and let you return to Momentum (fascinating website though).

They wouldn't all fit, Elegran.
Easy to trace, though, in the future, although I bet he has a family tree on the ancestral walls.

I wonder if Moggmentum will be on The Last Leg tonight?

Off topic for one post, when I transcribed the BMD for a North Wales county I was surprised to find an Appleonia in the early 19th century, perhaps named after a boat

Apparently he is one of the most rebellious of MPs - clearly a lot in common with Corbyn.

Possibly meant to be Apollonia, a Roman woman's name.

I've just seen Butler Barnabas - I wonder whether that is a clue to his father, like calling your child Milkman?

Last month.
