Since everyone wasn’t a fan of Prairie 😂, I thought it was kind of cute. How do you guys feel about the name Hudson, for a boy of course

It sounds very American.
Henry Hudson was a Brit.

Feels a bit common to me, like Jaxon or that sort of name.

Is he a hawk?
Or a river in New York?

TheGriffle · 13/09/2021 20:37

I just think of the river, so no good or bad connections. It does feel very American a to me for that reason though, obviously.

I live by the Hudson River. I think it's a lovely name for a boy.

BirdyBee · 13/09/2021 20:32

I love it!

I think surname…Kate Hudson

MrsRobbieHart · 13/09/2021 20:32

It’s a river in New York. The one where the plane landed. That was my first thought.

Love the name Hudson, it’s one of those names that just some how manages to sound strong & soft at the same time…kind of like the name Noah
