I love Jude. It's a family name, but I probably wouldn't use it.

I like the name Jude... for a girl. Jude Frances is a character in one of my favorite books. I think the combo is gorgeous and old-fashioned.
I strongly dislike it for a boy, but that is probably because I had never heard of the name until I read that book with the girl named Jude. So I started thinking of the name as feminine and can't picture it on a boy, sorry.

I like it a lot, it's a handsome name imo. I think it sounds just fine.

I adore the name Jude. It is on the top of my favorite names list. I think its absolutely lovely.

I go back and forth on it.
On one hand, it's so reminiscient of Judas Iscariot. On the other, St. Jude, patron saint of lost causes, is my mother's favorite saint, so I think of her.
Objectively, I think it has a wonderful sound. Subjectively, it has so many associations that I can't just consider it objectively! I lean more towards liking it just because it makes me think of my mother in a positive way. The lost cause thing is kind of a family joke.

Jude has been one of my top 5 boys' names for many years. I love it. But I can feel it beginning to gain popularity, which is sad =[

Unfortunately, it reminds me of Judas.

I like it for a girl as a nn for Judith.

Jude is probably in my top 5 boys names. I haven't seen Across the Universe but I do think Hey Jude is a beauiful song.
I actually used to think Jude was an ugly name because I associated it with Jude Law (who is not one of my favorite people). I've gotten passed that though, and now think it has a lovely melodic sound.

I think it's sort of a handsome name, but all I think of when I hear it is the song "Hey, Jude." Although it's a very good song, so it's not like that matters.
