This name jumped into my thoughts last week and I haven't been able to get it out. What do you think? Is Shad a good nickname, or would most people think of the type of fish called shad? Does Shadrach even need a nickname? Any mn suggestions would be appreciated, and as always, feel free to be honest. Thanks! :-)

I don't like it very much sorry, but it is kind of cool and quirky at the same time.
I don't think a Shadrach even needs a nickname but he would probably get one when he started school and Shad sounds really cool. All up, although nmsaa it isn't too bad and there are so many worse names out there!

Middle name suggestions:
Shadrach Ezra
Shadrach Elijah
Shadrach Milo
Shadrach Jackson
Shadrach Thomas
Shadrach Nicholas
Shadrach Robert
Shadrach Giles
Shadrach Hollis
Shadrach Isaiah
Shadrach Miguel
Shadrach Lysander
Shadrach Landon
Shadrach Benjamin

I LOVE this name! Shad is a cute nn I also love Meshach, and Abednego

That's cool. I've never heard it before, but I really like it. The nn Shad is nms; I think the name is best without a nn.

I can't say it without following it with "Mesach Abednago." (Beastie Boys song)

Seriously it's way too old school biblical for me personally.

Immediately I think of him, Mesach and Abednego standing in the fiery furnace;)

Way too biblical for me!
