Hi all
What do you think of Frank short for Franklin?
Would love some opinions please, trying to persuade dh, but he is worried it will become the new George!

May I be Frank?

Wanted to be the first to say that.

I don't really like it but I don't really dislike it.

I thought Frank was short for Francis? Or was that just Sinatra? Anyway, I like it.

I like it actually. Frankie is a nice NN for a baby.

Frank is just fab.

If I have a boy next time he'll be Frank....no question.

Frank short for Francis is one of the best boys' names! Frankie is cute for a little boy. Not so keen on Franklin. It isn't the new George yet. We don't know very many - only one in DS2's school, none in DS1's new school.
