I really love this name. What do other people think?

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

That was meant to be QUITE like it, not can't like it.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 06/05/2020 19:18

I can't like it. Can see people thinking it was Adrian though.

Sorry but absolutely not OP!

Maybe, erm, Marcus? Justin(ian)?

Please don't condemn your child to the name Hadrian. If you're a fan of Hadrian's Wall, there are some lovely names of places along it. Milecastle 42, for example.

Nice enough, wouldn't use it myself but it's uncommon without being ridiculous which are big bonuses imo.

Absolutely not.

It's the sort of name people use when they're taking the piss out of middle class parents and kids. "Hadrian, come and eat your brioche!" etc. etc. See also Ptolemy and Tarquin.
