Any views? I am not sure how I feel about it.

We chose John as a middle name for DS1, we really like it and it's also DHs middle name and my Dad's first name, so tbh was chosen for sentimental reasons really. But I do really like the name.

John for a girl.... no gotta say, say never thought of that! It's for a boy.

It's a good solid name. Won't set the world alight but also it'll never embarrass him. Unless you're being very trendy and meant John for a girl? :)

Johnny is a great nickname.

I like it and would use it.

A good, strong Biblical name; easy to spell and pronounce; good for a builder or a doctor or an artist - anyone could be a John; ticks my boxes.
