Been kicking some names around and Thatcher came up the other day and was wondering what your thoughts on it are? I like it but Im not sure if it should be on my List list or the theoretical list...

Thoughts?

Reminds me of Knight's Tale. It's Heath Ledger's dad's job.

Sorry OP, but ew. Thatcher reminds me too much of hatch. Like something you close.

It sounds very privileged and spoiled to me. Wasn't it the dad's name on Dirty, Sexy Money?

I don't like it. I think of Margaret Thatcher.  It doesn't sound like a first name to me.

Didn't people used to whip their kids with a thatch? Or was it a switch? Maybe both were used interchangably?

Either way...

Margaret Thatcher was my first thought as well.

I probably wouldn't pick it, but I don't object to it either.

Really.  And then my next thought is that the person choosing the name must be ignorant because who would give a child a first name that is associated with such a noteworthy last name, unless that person didn't know who Margaret Thatcher is.

Thanks Ladies, Its been crossed off the list. Also, No I didnt know who Margaret Thatcher was until she was mentioned here and I looked her up. Learnt something new today  Funny thing though is Margaret is on our top 3 girls names, after DH's grandmother. 

Anyway, thanks again for the input and now we are back to the drawing table for boys names....
