I like Theo, but I really dislike Theodore. :(

It's ok. Definitely usable... I'd rather see that than tacky trendy preppy names and surnames. It's even relatively pleasant.

I don't like it. I think nn Ted is fine, but Theodore - esp with nn Theo - seems spineless, airy, and effete to me.

Love!Theodore easily makes my top 10 for boys. I love the sound - to me it's masculine but not harsh. I also love Theo. I'm not a fan of Teddy as a nickname. I also like Theodora.

Theodore sounds like the name of a charming gent. I really like it. I prefer just Theo, though.

Love love love it! My nephew's name is Oliver for their second, I was pushing for Theodore. Ollie and Theo? :) Ollie and Teddy? :)

Aww, Ollie and Theo are so cute! So are Ollie and Teddy! That would be a great sibset! :)

I think it's nice, especially the nn Ted. Theodore is kind of comically pompous to use for everyday though.

I love it. It's so handsome and warm and kind and cuddly and smiley. If we were having a boy it would be in consideration!

Theodore is my favourite masculine name! I always imagine a powerful Russian emperor. It's so versatile: he can be the grown-up and professional Theodore, the artsy bad-boy Theo, the all-around-good-guy Ted, or the cute-but-tough-as-nails Teddy. It's not a scary biblical name, it's traditional and classic, and it's not exceedingly popular... what's not to love?
