[Opinions] Re: Clyde
Name-wise, just about anything goes, so asking if Clyde could still be a name today isn't very helpful.

I wouldn't want Bonnie as my first name, either, lol.

I could live with being Bonnie ...At least it's a compliment. But Clyde sounds like a big, clumsy, messy person who is always causing accidents. Like a clod, only worse.
Bonnie and Clyde would be good names for a pair of dogs or cats.

I just happen to really dislike Bonnie.The Clyde I knew was nothing like that, and when I hear the name I think of him, so that's not my perception of it. A case of a positive association making a name more likable, which is the opposite of what we usually talk about.

I knew two liver-and-white Dalmatians named Bonnie and Clyde! You're right - it suited them perfectly.
