Both of Josh's children's names have been mentioned previously on the pod
Google the son’s name!
oh come on who calls their child Google?
I think Josh has said before that he just doesn’t use their names because Rob doesn’t, and it would be weird if he did
Yeah, I remember him saying that too.
As Josh would say "bit of fun"
Don’t dislike it
I think it's an old lady name - which I love as both my children have "old" namesI think it’s pretty middle class - what does that say about me?
Josh’s kids names are sooooo middle class , what are you lot on I don’t hate them but come on !
I don’t hate them but come on ! Pearl and Cassius !!! I live in Kent and I’ve never heard such names
There are 2 pearls at my kids school, definitely not middle class. And I used to work with a Cassius, again he was DEFINITELY not middle classJosh’s kids names are sooooo middle class , what are you lot on
Pearl and Cassius !!! I live in Kent and I’ve never heard such names
Edited to add. I think the context in which you first hear the name, makes you think that where it belongs. You first heard them as Josh’s kids. It if you heard a mother on a council estate shouting then you wouldn’t thing they were middle class. I have always thought pearl is a normal name as I have known a few growing up. Doesn’t seem remotely middle class to me.
I thought the Oedipus reference was an oddly sexual lens for Russell to be viewing his relationship with his own daughter. As a child, you can struggle with the want to be the centre of a parent’s world without wanting to be their partner!
I thought the Oedipus reference was pretty gross and extreme too, and a weirdly sexual lens for Russell to be seeing his relationship with his own young daughter through.
Guess we’ll have to agree to disagree ! I think they are typical middle class arty couple east London names - which is exactly what Josh and Rose are so it fits ! My husband works at a private school and those are the types of names he has there , there aren’t many kids with similar names at my son’s state primary !There are 2 pearls at my kids school, definitely not middle class.

Cassius is posh but Pearl just screams old lady wearing an apron with her hair in rollers, smoking a fag!Guess we’ll have to agree to disagree !

I think the name Cassius sounds proper chavvy. It would definitely be seeing as working class when I am. I know a few Pearls-not middle class.
But like someone said, if you’re only ever hearing those names from ‘posh’ folk then you will think they’re posh.
Cassius is a name round here that chavs would shout.

my friend has a pony called Pearl I don’t like Cassius but Cass for short is nice.
I don’t like Cassius but Cass for short is nice.I find them a little bit jarring because for me they both conjure the Deep South in the US and Josh’s family is really not the same demographic
Deep South of DevonI find them a little bit jarring because for me they both conjure the Deep South in the US and Josh’s family is really not the same demographic
