Names a la Mode: Fashion icon names
Thierry Mugler
This totally original French designer presents stylized superwoman images featuring sharp, broad-shouldered silhouettes, giving him the epithet translated from the French as “creator of shock.” The name Thierry, which is megapopular in France, is pronounced much like Terry, but with a slight twist: tyeh-REE.

I love the names Paco and Kenzo, but much more as nick names then full names. Like a boy named Kenneth and called Kenzo, or Patrick called Paco! Although Paco was one of my nephew Jasons many nicknames when he was little.
Also, I totally want that dress on image 3!

Surprised not to see Vivienne Westwood, Elsa Schiaparelli or Betsey Johnson.

I love fashion, but I’m not really loving any of these names.

Love Coco Chanel, but I’m planning on using her birth name Gabrielle , which I love as much as I love her for it French flare and femininity, instead of Coco, although I might opt for the latter as a nickname.

I like Kenzo a lot, and Kenzie, for a boy. Totally handsome.

Just gotta add a correction- Rei is pronounced like Ray not reh-ee.

love zandra rhodes – the person, not the name. and i went to school with a boy named hardy…but his last name was cox. so, um…definitely think twice about your last name before giving your son the name hardy (this comes from much experience).

I find Paco irresistible! But I really liked the inclusion of Thierry; I’ve been thinking about using it as a middle name to honour my dad, Terence.
