Some pig
I really love it and I think it'll start cropping up more over the next few years, but right now I think it would take a bit of bravery to use.
I do like most Wil- names, though.

Did anybody ever see that old Disney short where goofy goes fishing with his cricket? (Or something, I haven’t seen it in years.)
Anyway, because of that all I can hear is Goofy shouting “Wiiiiiiiiiiilbuuuuuuuuuur!!!”

I think of the horse in "Mr. Ed" saying "Wiiilllbuuuur."
I don't like it, but talking to thousands of people in the course of over ten years on the job has led me to believe that no name is really unusable.

I find it unbearably ugly and completely unusable.
Outside of Charlotte's Web, I don't think it's usable.
No, not usable, not since Charlotte's Web got to be so popular. It was already uncool at that time, probably.
Perfect for a cartoon wimp. I actually prefer Wilfred, and that's saying something.
Can't get past the pig in Charlotte's Web.
I don't think it's that bad. It's only a small step beyond Wilfred.
I think hearing Wilberforce made me like it more; it seems modern compared to that.

I dont think so
It’s definitely usable. There’s one in my son’s music class and I’ve heard of a few others as well.

I love Wilbur and totally think it's usable.
One of my favourite Wil names. Definitely usable.
It'll be back before you know it. I think it's starting to come back across the pond.
I think it's ugly but just about poised to see it as cute.

It has that old-timey, vintage but charming feel to it. I like it. Then again, I don't want to come across as fully biased as this actually happens to be my last name, only with a different spelling.I'm proud to carry it and plan to pass it along onto my kids if presented with the opportunity.
I do think it's useable, although I'm definitely more used to seeing it, well, as a last name, outside on a few associations and characters.
