Neeranam Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 Does anyone know of any lists for boy's names(Thai)? Also, would the names 'Hamish' , 'Dougal' mean anything silly in Thai? We're expecting our second soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lost_in_space Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 one of those thai language books by benjawan poonsam becker has a list of names in it. can't remember if it's the beginner or intermediate book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leftcross Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 we're calling our son a farang name as we think it will be better in the long run (education abroad etc) also, thais use nicknames for each other anyway so he can have a thai nick and a farang name on his passport. you should be able to find a list of decent thai names on the internet ... a good one that works well in both languages is Arun. can't remember seeing hamish in there though!

Barney_the_Dinosaur Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I liked the name "Kraivixien" for our little prodigy, (its the name of a hairdressers in Central Chidlom dept store), but the wife thought it was over the top. Recommend you don't go for 'Somkid', because its very old-fashioned - like "Ernest". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brubo1 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 we called our son JETHRO. Although Thais have a hard time getting their tongue around the "th" - I figuered they could give Jet as a thai nickname! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
