Dated!

Mycraneisfixed · 05/08/2016 09:57

Dates. Boring.

Makes me think of my friend's ExH who is an a absolute cunt of a man.

Surely these 30 year old men called Craig were once babies that went by the same name Confused

leedsladyx · 04/08/2016 12:46

It's not a baby name any more, It's a 30 year old man name. I don't understand how a baby would suit the name Craig.

squoosh · 04/08/2016 11:36

Not good. Reminds me of 1980's popstars like Craig from Bros and Craig McLachlan of Neighbours fame who charmed the world with his wonderful ditty 'Mona'.

I prefer Greg....
That's not scottish though

weebarra · 04/08/2016 08:15

It's a good Scottish name. I know a three year old one, he's very cute and it suits him.

Don't like it, for me it's a Keith, Kevin type name. Think it has died out for a good reason ...

I think it's awful I'm afraid. Really blunt, not very nice or friendly sounding, and outdated. Also a bit 'common' although I realise that makes me sound really snobby.

Honestly, I wish it was my surname! It was the surname of a boy I fancied when I was 12 and I think that's why I like it Blush

It's my surname. I got a lot of mileage through two pregnancies that I would call my baby Craig Craig.

Love the name.. Not too popular nowadays but kinda expect a resurgence in the future.

Mottled · 03/08/2016 22:30

Similar to Darren & Lee

imwithspud · 03/08/2016 22:24

Nothing wrong with it. It's just a nice, ordinary name imo.

neonrainbow · 03/08/2016 22:23

Its quite 80s/90s but if you like it go for it :)

PotatoBread · 03/08/2016 22:19

Bit too 70s & 80s for me

Raines100 · 03/08/2016 21:40

Think he has a list...

Sophronia · 03/08/2016 21:09

It's a bit dated, but I like it.
