Denver for a boy

[candr]

What do people think?

No. Isn't it a town in Colorado?

No.

I like it

No. I prefer a more English name, like Croydon. Or Henley if you`re posh

Don't like personally, a bit 80's not cool. How about Denny Derry or one of their type?

No. Have you been there? Not worth naming a child after.

No, too 80's.

There was a crooner called John Denver (wrote Annie's Song, currently in an ad) who died/killed himself in his own plane (crashed) after a battle with alcoholism. Personally I'd have trouble with that association, although it's a bit niche.

My first thought was "the last dinosaur"!

I actually don't mind it, I wouldn't pick it but wouldn't find it odd if someone said that's their childs name.

I like it and I love John Denver. I don't see it as 80s at all.

Also maybe you would like

Hunter
Evan
Cooper
Ethan

What is it about the name that makes you like it?

It's not something I would choose myself

I personally like it.

Nice!

I don't mind it, its very american.

How about Devon as a british alternative?

DS has a place name but not well known and unusual so wanted DS2 to have unusual but not wierd name too. Does not have to be place name but saw Denver in a book. Love John Denver music too. Know 2 kids called Devon round here. Croyden is near my parents and not a favourite place and live very near Henley so bit strange. Other ideas welcome.

What about Marlow?

Taran (after Taransay the island in scotland)

Sydney

Dallas

Brae (after skara brae in scotland)

John Denver.

Paris? Place name but also classical (the Iliad)
Sydney?
