What do you think of the name Kenneth Andrew with the nickname Kenny? What do you picture a boy with the name Kenny to look like? Also, what are some other names that would go with this as a sibset? Thanks in advance!

As much as I do not like Kenneth or the nn Kenny, Kenneth Andrew has a very nice sound to it.

I love the name Kenneth. Probably because of the associations I have with it (My great-grandpa, uncle, and friends). I know quite a few 'Kennys' now that I think of it. I really dislike the nn Ken though.

I think of my drug addicted drunk uncle. I don't think people usually grow out of nns. Can you picture a 30 year old named Kenny?

Funny coincidence...

One of my characters in a story is Andrew Kenneth.

I think Kenny is okay. But it's somewhat dated to me.

Omg! They killed Kenny!

that's the FIRST thing that comes to mind, lol...
I really like Kenneth Andrew, but I don't really like Kenny as a nn...

(edit: i asked: What about Ken? but i just read you don't like it...)

Exactly what I though. There could be some Kill Kenny jokes if you choose this name....

I don't like Kenny or Ken. It seems dated.

ETA: I like Andrew. I would use Andrew Kenneth with the nn Drew.

I kind of picture Kenny as a black boy, thanks to the Cosby Show, or a character from South park. I don't really like it. Or Kenneth either. I especially dislike KEN as a nn. Andrew I love though! Andrew Kenneth is a little nicer, I think. :/

I dispise the nickname Ken, too. I'll consider Andrew Kenneth but I'm not a big fan of the nicknames for Andrew and as he gets older in school, people will probably start calling him Andy or something and like I said, I don't like tha =/
