Not considering using it but heard it today and realised I haven’t heard a child called graham in years! Anyone know a little graham, thoughts on it? Is it due a comeback?

The name Graham makes me think of a 65year old driving instructor who likes to wear knitted cardigans in all weathers. Definitely not due a comeback.

I think the Graeme spelling is nicer, but it's a good name; classic without being overdone. Well due a comeback, in my opinion.

It's quite an unattractive name. I would lump it with names like Judy, Clive, Vincent, and Brenda that I would happily never see 'comeback'.

I've had so many next door neighbours called Graham. They've all had busybody tendencies! I haven't heard of any young ones though.

Arthur is a favourite x

No, not Graham x

I don't think Graham is quite ready for a comeback yet. Probably needs another generation.

RevoltingHumanHead · 20/06/2022 16:39

It's quite a sad little name.

I know a Graham who is 15. Not so little bit still young.

I wouldn't say it's due a come back. As much as I love Graham Norton there is no way I'd inflict that name on a child!
