I think it's a lovely name and getting more popular but after my massive box set binge on Dexter whilst pregnant, it definitely didn't come anywhere near my short list!

lisaro · 06/02/2012 18:35

Nay, nay and thrice nay!

mumofjust1 · 06/02/2012 18:38

Love it! Grin

PopcornBiscuit · 06/02/2012 18:39

Too surnamey for me, sorry.

RabidEchidna · 06/02/2012 18:39

But he will only kill other serial killers Grin

I really like it

Friend of mine had a son who liked dexter's laboratory but couldn't say it and always said "dexter's suppository" instead :) little boy in daughters school called it and can't help but think of it every time I see him.

Love the name tho

Love it as you can probably guess!!! It was vetoed by DP hence me using it in my user name.

I like it but it's our puppies name. We do ave a friend with that name and it really suits him.

fredandginger · 07/02/2012 13:13

Absolutely hate it, sorry

LaFilleSurLePont · 07/02/2012 13:17

A definite nay from me. It's horrid.

Montsti · 07/02/2012 14:39

Really don't like it - sorry!

ChickensGoMeh · 07/02/2012 14:40

I really like it. Dex sounds cool.

TeWihara · 07/02/2012 14:56

I like it, but couldn't for the same reason as MrsD!

Greenshirt · 07/02/2012 23:48

I have a Dexter Miles aged 6 [so before the tv show!].He is freckly,fab and very cool-just like the name!!

galletti · 07/02/2012 23:54

I know a Dexter, thought it was a strange choice of name when I first met him when he was a baby, but think it is a lovely name now - and agree with Greenshirt - very cool!

JoJoMummy321 · 08/02/2012 00:02

I love it and would consider it. Depends on surname but I like!

ATruthUniversallyAcknowledged · 08/02/2012 00:08

Love it. Was on our short list & I still sometimes wish we'd gone for it.

MayaAngelCool · 08/02/2012 00:20

Super-cool name. Love it.

allieballiebee · 08/02/2012 21:08

Seems like a marmite name then!
