What do you think? Too dated?

I like it

Aquamarine1029 · 22/03/2021 16:06

Love it.

Nice enough, but it’s XH name so it’s a bit tainted for me.

You go for it, though. It would go well with Rowan as a sibling.

My ex's name, so it's a no from me :)

There’s one in my sons preschool, so he’s 3 or 4.
I don’t personally like it as the only Martin I know is a bit of a wet fish.

Lovely. Was a name I grew up with in the sixties but it's time for a revival.

BadMudda · 22/03/2021 16:19

No only because I went out with a Martin .

First boyfriend and utterly utterly vile .

A complete and utter arse so it's a no from me

Every Martin I've ever known has been batshit crazy.

TOWGA · 22/03/2021 16:21

That's my husband's name, and he is under 30 Grin

Makes me think of the Tom Robinson song , and much as I like Tom Robinson it would be a no for me .

Amdone123 · 22/03/2021 16:22

No. A definite no.

I’m not a fan at all. I think this one is very much down to personal taste though, so I’d say go for it if you really like it!
