We love the name Roscoe, I first put it to my partner when we originally found out we were having a baby. I have loved the name for years from the song Roscoe by Midlake which is where I originally heard it. The song itself is so lovely, and having looked up its meaning, his name means āroe deerā or āforestā of an old Norse definition. Recently since telling a few friends and family we have had nothing but backlash which has now made me reconsider. People saying itās a dogs name, although our dog is called Henryš and just generally disliking the name. Just wondering what peopleās thoughts on the name are.

I really like this actually! Iād defo be nicknaming them Rossi š»

By the minute it's growing on me. Don't mind them. They'll accept it when they meet him

If you and your partner love it then why not? Will there be a middle name?

Love it!! š¤©

I wonāt lie, I know 3 different dogs named Roscoe and itās not personally my style but it seems like you have personal reasons for loving it and itās your name to choose not anyone elseās.

This is why I never told anyone our name choices. Once the baby is here and named, people will just have to accept it. Before the baby is here, people just have to share their opinion.
