I’m english, living in Scotland and I’m expecting a baby boy. I love the name Jude but I’m thinking of how it will sound in a Scottish accent. It’s a much shorter vowel sound, if that makes sense and I’m not sure if it will sound so good. I don’t want to tell anyone the names we’re considering so I haven’t been able to hear how it actually sounds. Any Scottish people on here who could help me decide?

A little boy I know has just been named Jude. It's just Jood.

I'm Glaswegian and it sounds nice to me in broad weegie- I think it's a lovely name. I know 2 young Jude's.
