Gordon?

[amyjaney1984]

Yay or nay?!

Is a moron
Or a train
Or a bad politician
Or a angry cook
Or an old fashioned expression

My dad is Gordon. Good Scottish name, gets called Gordy by everyone.

I know a little Gordon......it suits him and he is lovely. Good Scottish name

Yay from me. It's a great name - see beyond the obvious associations people! None of your dc's peers are going to give a second thought to Gordon the gopher or Gordon Brown!

Yay! I like it and think Gordie is an adorable nickname. But ice hockey is a big thing in my culture, especially Gordie Howe, Mr Hockey himself. :)

In the name of all things holy - NAY NAY NAY. (My Dad's name - awful - the name, not my dad!)

Nay.

No. I'm Scottish and know loads of old Gordon's. I don't think it's nice at all.

Gordon is the late-middle-aged bloke who wears the same brown trousers all week and eats a scotch egg for lunch at his desk every day. He trades slightly risqué jokes with Nigel and Derek at lunch time and drives a poo-coloured car.

That is how I picture Gordon.

Nope

Nay. Koala has it spot on.

I like Scottish names, but Gordon just seems to have vanished off the radar for baby boys - I know five Gordons and they're all over 50. I think "Gordon is a moron" killed it off, and then Gordon Brown made sure it couldn't come back.

I know a handsome twenty something Gordon !

No

NO

It's dire. Please don't.

Nooooooo.

My best friends dad is called Gordon,
They always laugh and say 'why would they choose that? Who would stick a little baby with Gordon!'

Sorry

All right if you're Scottish. I used to work with quite a fit Gordon when I was at sixth form.

I don't mind it. The reasons people have mentioned confused me. The thing I'd consider would be that it kind of means really super fat in spanish. Gordón
