Adam

[Prettyinbeige]

My sister is about to have a boy, they have narrowed it down to 2 names but the favourite is Adam.
I like the name.
We were looking for a few opinions on Adam?

AngelsInWinter, my Adam is my second son which tends to cause confusion for those who don't know us so well as the presumption seems to be that he would be the first son.

Longtime... Wow, really?! I don't think anyone has ever put 2 and 2 together with my Adam!

Wow after reading perspectives post it just occurred to me that my Adam may be a DH one day. It made me feel a bit actually. He's only so a long way off yet but that thought had never crossed my mind before... Omg I will be a mil!!!

I'm marrying one and he is amazing! Its very much the kind of name you can imagine in any profession, my Adam is an engineer and I work with one who is a film maker. Brilliant choice

I don't like or dislike it. It doesn't excite me as a name.

I have an Adam :)

He calls himself Addy.

DH is an Adam
He gets called Ad, which he hates, but marginally less than his surname based nn.
It's a timeless/classless/ageless name though, and always fits on forms.

I'm considering this for my boy (pregnant with boy/girl twins). Still a bit hmm though, so interesting to read.

Angels, yes, I found it a bit odd as we are not religious at all. I'd understand it if we lived in the bible belt of the US but we live in Belgium!

I just remembered that there was a nice-looking doctor in neighbours called Adam around the time my Adam was born. Looking at him now, I don't know what I was thinking!! www.perfectblend.net/neighbourhood/bio/willis-adam.htm

That's interesting everlong. I know 2 Adam/Sam pairs.

Haha I also have a Sam(uel)

I know an Adam who is known as 'Ad'. His mum chose the name because she didn't want one that could be easily shortened but kids make their own choices. I like the name Adam & only know two, one being 32, the other is 18.
