It's OK, but I'm not really one for surnames as first names.

It's my dog's name.

It's my nephew's name. Mainly I think; He came, he saw, he destroyed, he had a temper tantrum, he left Smile

I like it.

The USA psycho cop show theme would be playing in my head if I met a child called Dexter, but I do like it Grin

Its great. The Dexter I know in real life is well fit.

I know 2 under one. I think it's a bit too surnamey for me, and not even a classic sounding surname.

I really loved it 7 years ago before I knew I was having a dd. everyone detested it an was aghast. Then Charlotte church used it and there was the tv series, and it has become more and more popular over the years. I still like it but its too popular for me now. My other boys name choice was Casper, which interestingly has also started to increase in popularity recently.

Reminds me of the guy from 'One Day'. But i like it!

No, really dislike surname names. It doesn't even sound nice.
