What do we think of Bruno?

I'm loving boys names that end with an 'o'.
I like Hugo, for the same reason, but I just think it's a bit much.
So, I came across Bruno, and I love it.
But, would welcome any opinions/possible red flags/other suggestions.

I love it but our surname starts with a B and I don't like double letters..

Nigella Lawson has a son called Bruno!!!

The name of a labrador I knew as a child. Bruno and Hemingway. I kid you not.

Sorry.

Floggingmolly · 22/02/2013 20:46

For a dog, yes. For a boy, no.

ellesabe · 22/02/2013 20:51

I love it and would have considered it for dc2 but dd1 has blonde hair and Bruno means 'brown' so would seem odd.

Meglet · 22/02/2013 20:53

Love it Smile. DD was going to be Bruno if she was a boy.

Beatrixpotty · 22/02/2013 21:31

I really like it and always thought of it in the sense of nice Italian name perfect for brown eyed/brown haired boy although when admitted it was on our short list we got the dog name comments & boxer connections which put off DH but had never occurred to me.I've never met a dog called it but have met a couple of lovely boys called Bruno so I would say,go for it!
