I love it, ds3 was going to be called sonny but dfil died so hes named after him. Was going to use it with ds5 but dps cousin had a baby 2 weeks before us and named him sonny. (After dps grandad)

I don't care for it as a given name, but I think it's quite a sweet nickname for a little boy.

NadiaWadia · 08/01/2014 17:29

It's not a real name. Please don't.

Frikadellen · 08/01/2014 18:56

I don't like it but mostly because it rhymes on my own name and I hate my name.

Frankie is awesome.

Also have Manny, Joel, Linus and Murray on my theoretical boys' list.

Stupid name
Be ridiculous on a 6'4 man with hair hands etc
A bit like the name Jamie in the 90s - still sounds silly on an adult man

Hate it!! Stupid name, in fact it's not really a proper name, it's a nn.

Joey is ok, but again I wouldn't use it except as a nn for Joseph.
Jack is ok but a bit blah!

Frankie is ok for a child, but again I would only use it as a nn for Frank or Francis

I like Joey and Jack. Not a Frankie fan.

LondonNinja · 09/01/2014 17:38

Sonny is awful.

What's it short for? I like it but I'm sure Sonny in The Godfather was called something else.

I hate it. I think I'd actually be put off an adult man in a bar if he used that name to introduce himself to me.
