Gary?

I'm interested to know - would any expectant parents on here be willing or planning on calling their child Gary?
It's a sturdy name, but apparently falling out of favour.
Save Gary!
Thanks

If you think it sounds nice, will you call your baby Gary?
Go on!

It's a horrible name, truly hideous.

I actually really like Gareth and Geraint, not sure about Gary as a stand alone name.

No way. Gary is a 45 year old bloke. No baby should be called Gary Grin

It actually sounds somewhat refreshing and nicer than cutesy names like Archie or Alfie. I think it will make a comeback

The youngest Gary I know is around 19 and even back then. I thought it was dated. Mind you I quite like dated names. They're more refreshing.
I agree save Gary. Although it's a nice name I would use it even if I had 10 boys.
