Help[Opinions] Re: Some boys names
in reply to a message by sprout
Adam: I really like it, but probably wouldn't use it. Still, I find it strong and robust. There's a reason why it's so common.
Frederick: Neutral. It doesn't do anything for me, but I also don't dislike it. Just one of those names that's just there really. I'd probably use it for a character if it suited them.
Graham: I don't care for it that much. I mean I don't despise it; far better than some names out there, but at the same time it just doesn't really do it for me. It reminds me of some guy our family used to know who was a ragging alcoholic and just overall bad news. It also of course brings to mind the crackers and of words like telegram and gram. Still, I far prefer Bram.
Henry: Neutral. It's decent but at the same time overrated, which is why I'm still surprised it made it's way into the top 10's. Like it's a nice respectable name and all, but it isn't that nice. It's at least better than "Hank" which I don't find attractive at all.
Kit: My least favorite from this list. I don't necessarily hate it though. I just find it insubstantial. Short names certainly exists, but Kit just seems like it's missing/lacking something. I'm also not sure how I feel about it on a boy. I guess I can't really see it working as an actual name rather than as just a nn.
Nicholas: I like it, but not enough to use or to even add onto my list. Maybe one day though. It's certainly decent. I just wish I didn't think of the word, ridiculous every time.
Owen: Same category with Henry: Both decent yet overrated. I know so many who named their sons this in recent years, both online and in real-life, but I'm just rather nonchalant towards it. I like it more than Henry though.
Wilbur: This is a particular one for me. I'm of course reminded of the pig from Charlotte's Web, but it's also a name that I have a deep connection to, only with a slightly different spelling. I like it, but then I'm probably extremely biased. I also like the old time-y and old fashioned vibes that that it has.
