Thoughts on the name George?

Where is George at these days in terms of is it considered a nice name or fashioned etc?

Should caveat this by saying I’m Irish and George is currently ranked 84th most popular baby name - so I don’t think it’s as popular as it is in the U.K.

we like the name George as it means ‘farmer’ and we both come from a long line of farmers so a nod to that heritage. Also feel that it’s a strong name, no clear nickname and cute for a baby but also fine for a man.

What are others thoughts on it! We are a bit worried about reactions but Charlie and Freddie and Harry are very popular here so don’t think it’s too out there to use.

George is just a common name run of the mill name so there’s no need to worry about it no one will bat an eyelid
