I love the name Brody for a boy but am not sure if it is considered “chavvy”. What are your opinions?

I know a few, make and female. It's ok, but I prefer Struan or Innes.

I know a couple of Brodies. ( Yes, Scotland!)
I like it.

CammieKennaway · 25/04/2019 17:49

I think Brody is a lovely name.

Know a few Brodie’s I’m in Scotland as well. It was on the short list for dd (15) and glad we didn’t use it now because I know several and I live in a largeish village not a big town.

My dog is called Brodie 😂
After Marcus Brodie in the Indiana Jones films.( not helpful).

Nonameyet1 · 25/04/2019 17:42

Not keen, sorry.

MrsJDornan · 25/04/2019 13:05

I like it :)

Bumsnet69 · 25/04/2019 13:01

It’s a girls’ name around here (central Scotland), know lots from aged from 3 to in their 30s. Always spelled Brodie though.

As a boys’ name it makes me think of Jason Lee in Mallrats.

PlatypusLeague · 25/04/2019 12:58

Not keen, sorry

Icklepup · 25/04/2019 12:40

I hate it but wouldn't say 'chavvy'

MashedSpud · 24/04/2019 20:05

I like it, it makes me think of Jaws.

Bumblebeesmum · 24/04/2019 19:59

Hate it sorry

Shadow1234 · 24/04/2019 19:34

Snooks1971 · 24/04/2019 18:13

OnlyFoolsnMothers · 24/04/2019 18:12

I immediately think The Hills....very American

Peachbubble · 24/04/2019 18:11

I like it - I don't think it's chavvy

YoureAllABunchOfBastards · 24/04/2019 15:51

I teach a couple of female Brodies

Tiredmum100 · 24/04/2019 15:50

I know of a Brody. Yes I think it does sound American but I do like it.

PinkieTuscadero · 24/04/2019 15:49

'Does sound very American. If you’re not then I wouldn’t.'

Why?

cleanasawhistle · 24/04/2019 15:49

I was at an Ice Rink in Scotland and a mother kept calling for her little boy to come back over....his name was Brody....I really like it

NotMyUsualTopBilling · 24/04/2019 15:48

It's a VERY popular name here in Scotland.

I know 15 under 8.

NabooThatsWho · 24/04/2019 15:48

I love it!

Wolfiefan · 24/04/2019 15:46

Does sound very American. If you’re not then I wouldn’t.

Dora26 · 24/04/2019 15:43

Brody is a surname in Ireland so just one more surname making it as a christian/first name - I quite like it
