What person do you imagine when you hear Freddie or Sonny?

Just that really. Would they be chancers? Or could they be academic? Dunno what impression these names give.

Ha ha snap!

Those names make me think of the Godfather - weren't Fredo and Sonny two of the Don Corleone's sons?

oh dear - I thought of gangsters - as in the Corleones. Sorry.

I like all the Freddies I know. Nice, cheerful, straightforward boys.

Sonny - less keen. It just sounds a bit too diminutive - like calling someone Junior. I'd struggle to respect an adult Sonny.

I think Freddie would be a cool , academic rich kid and sonny musical, free spirited , and adventurous.

Cheeky, but sweet little boys. I don't picture an academic boy but nor do I picture a dimwitted one. Just a fairly average little lad.
