What do you think? Obviously for a boy. Have 2 dc already, with Irish surnames beginning with B, and thought that Carson would fit in nicely.

I knew a bloke at uni called Carson. It doesn't offend me as it seems to have offended the others but I just feel there are nicer names out there iykwim?

on the other hand if your other kids both have Irish surnames for names (or did I pick that up completely wrong) it would go well and be in keeping with the other names

my FAV name from Ireland is Tadgh - I love it

No. No. No.
Wasn't the camp guy from one of the those American make-over progs called Carson?

I was talking to someone the other day who had considered it. Its one of those names that would grow on me.

I don't love it but I don't dislike it either.
