[Opinions] Re: Irving
in reply to a message by BrilliantBlue
1. What are your thoughts on the name Irving? Irredeemably dated? Old-time classic ready for revival?: I love it! Prefer the spelling Irvine, because I pronounce it IR-vin and drop the g (but that's just my accent lol). I wouldn't call it dated, more rare and underused. Definitely due for a comeback!
2. What about nickname Ving (I much prefer it to Irv)? What would you think if you saw a little kid named Irving? A teenager? A young adult? A grandfather?: Hmm... not a fan of Ving OR Irv. How about Vinnie? Or simply Vin (hey if Vin Diesel can get away with it, why not?!)? I would be excited about seeing someone of ANY age called Irving, its brilliant!
3. Middle name suggestions?: Irving James and Irving Alexander are my favourites for the name (common middle names I know, but I think they're classic!)
4. Would you use Irving or another male name beginning with I? Which name(s) do you prefer to Irving that begin with I?: Irvine would be the only one I would suggest instead :-)
