What do you think of the name Hudson for a boy?

Hudson Hawk, one of the worst films of all time, with Bruce Willis.
Paul Newman, played the Hudson Hornet in Cars.

Don't like it at all sorry, doesn't sound like a name to me. Out of the two I'd go with Monty, but neither are great for me.

Sounds more like a surname to me

Hudon Bay or Hudson River

He was a nice enough character in an old butlerish way - a bit like the butler in Downton. I would have thought most 40+s would think of him.

No link worked ok for me - It took me to google with 'Hudson Upstairs Downstairs' in the search box - just had to click on search

Shit link failed. iPad still eluding me on links. Anyway thought Gordon Jacksonnas Hudson in Upstairs Downstairs.

My immediate thought although only those over a certain age will remember him.
