Bernard? Completely bonkers or pleasingly retro?

I love it and so does dh.

What do you think? Would it go with a 'posh' double barrelled surname....

I love it, so, so much, and have tried to persuade dh in every one of my pregnancies.
Very cute as Bernie, and Bernard is a lovely gentlemans name.

I really like it but think of Bernard the naughty boy in the Shirley Hughes stories. Annie-Rose (Alfie's little sister) calls him 'Durnard'!

It shrieks "Blackadder" to me!

Imo it would have to be Bernie for the baby years.

Have you tried shouting it in the street, that's the only way to test names.
