My DH and myself love the name Carter for a boy. It doesn't have many hits online, but one I read was someone saying it sounded like a pets name.

What do you think?

Good name?

Not a pets name. Not quite my cup of tea either, but not terrible.

I love it We would've used it if we had a boy.

Carter the unstoppable sex machine for me too!

Oh dear, nope - don't like it at all sorry.

And it makes me think of Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine - great name for a band but not for a child!

I like surnames as first names but I think Carter is my least favourite. Very hard-sounding.

Too surnamey for me.

To American sounding for me and it just makes me think of this

I think of Mopsy, Flopsy, Oscar, Felix as pet names, not Carter.

Sounds a little surnamey to me but if you like it and if it goes well with your surname, why not.
