We already have an Isaac, there's German/Dutch heritage.

We love it. Particularly after reading The Book Thief.

Is it really bad though?

Really don't like Rudolph at all.

Rudy is cute on a little boy, but I can't imagine it for an adult.

Also agree that there is potential for teasing along the rude Rudy lines...

actually in all honestly, it was right down to the wire between using DD2's name and Rudy - we went between her current name and Rudy before we settled on her name now - may I quickly point out that it got the edge only because my mother said she didn't like it

My favourite boy's name ever

No, it is not cool imo. I really don't like Rudolph and Rudy reminds me of 'Rude'!

Love Rudy soooooo much, would have fought for this if my girl had been a boy!

I love Rudy, we had it on the list but were going to use Reuben with nn Rudy - was a girl though
