I really love Frank but how
popular is it?
Is it a hard name to pull off?

Not my cup of tea, it sounds harsh to me. Though I don't mind Franklin nn Frankie

It's not to my taste, but then it's not my child. So if you like it, there's nothing to stop you using it.

I do know a Francis who goes by the nickname Frankie or Fran. Is it possible to give him another name?Where you can use Frank as a nickname?

I can see it being quite a potential for teasing. Frankfurters etc

Sorry, but I think it's a very unattractive name.

@Sunnydayze43 , Enstein, Enfurter or Spencer?

I don't have any pre-conceived notions about the name Frank and would have loved to have named our first DS Frank ( after grandad Francis/Frank) but our last name is absolutely not suitable to the name! I would have shortened it to Frankie; so cute.

Frank popularity since 1996 (England & Wales).

I love Frank!

If I had two boys I'd call them Frank and Ernie.

Being perfectly honest, maybe even a little blunt, I think it's awful. Forever associated with a bumbling, rather stupid man.

I love it!!!

I've not met many, but I've never met one I didn't like - my placement person as a student, my current boss.
