Yep - everyone will think Dennis Quaid, Arnie - or the new one, whoever he is...

I don't really like surnames as first name but this one does sound particularly odd.

I like it!

The Dennis association will be completely irrelevant to the little guy.

Also, he'll never be given one of those horrible Winnie-the-Pooh birthday cards with child's name on. (Don't get me wrong, I love W-the-P. He can do no wrong. Love the books ? but the merchandising around is bleegghhh.)

I'm 24 and know who Dennis is. But suppose I'm technically not a youngster anymore :(

Yes Quinn?

Mind you I expect I am showing my age thinking Dennis. Youngsters won't have a clue who he is.

I think Dennis but that's not really a massive issue,I quite like it. But I do prefer Quinn,which has a similar vibe.

then Dennis

then I think of someone called Dennis with a tumescence in his pants.

Sorry.
