[Opinions] Michael

Gorgeous name, but definitely overused. I guess it's ok as mn, even if there's other people in your family who have it.
ya totaly if you don't use it as a first name because of popularity and use it as a middle name your not going to call your kid blank Michael it would be ok
Michael is one of those names I got sick of as a kid. However, because it is so popular and has been for decades, I can't really judge it objectively. I may simply not like it because I got tired of hearing it.
If you don't like the name but want to honor you grandfather and uncle, I would use it as a middle name.
But if you like it, then all the more reason to use it as a first name.

I don't care for the name, partly because it's overdone, but not only that, I don't like it anyway. BUT if it's to honor family members, I would still use it, even if I didn't like it, as a middle name. I think the middle name slot is perfect for a name you don't particularly like but want to use to honor someone. I gave my daughter a middle name I didn't like to honor my mother and grandmother.
I realize that you didn't say you didn't like Michael, but if you do like it, that's all the more reason to use it, even as a first name.

I would still use it, if you feel like the confusion level would be low enough. I love Michael as well and it's my dad's name (and in a sense, my name. My name Michelle was chosen because it was derived from Michael). But if one of my siblings beat me to using Michael as a first name, it will definitely slide to a middle name-only status.
I love names that honor. I would definitely use it as either a first or middle name.
I'd use it still. I think Michael is a great name. It's been really popular for an incredibly long time, but it's a traditional name and not a trendy one, so to me the popularity wouldn't really matter because it wouldn't date it.
I'd use it but only on a girl for me.
