Patrick-how many do you know?

[higgidypiesarethebusiness]

I love this name and have never met a little one named it.
But I've also never met a little Henry or Reuben and apparently these names are v popular.

So IRL how many little Patricks do you know?

I know 2 one is 24 other is 31 x

My DS aged 13 is one, a 73 year old is another. DS was the only one in primary and is the only one in secondary. Have a GS 15 weeks called Henry.

Here in Scotland I know 3 that are ds's age (10)
I know 2 adult ones as well

Loads, I'm Irish though. Met some non-Irish toddler Patrick's here in the UK so it's relatively rare. Haven't heard of an Irish baby Patrick in years, but a fair few Padraig's (Irish version) and Paudie's (Irish nickname). It's a lovely name.

I don't know any, maybe for a reason. Sorry, I think there are so many nice names out there.

Sorry, that was a bit harsh considering you didn't ask for opinions (I had it in my head you were seeking opinions when replying for some reason). Apologies.

Only my 33-year-old husband

One. He's in his 20s and is not Irish.

I know one 4 year old. Surprisingly underused name. I really like it!

None.

Loads! Paddy is very popular in Ireland. I love it.

I like it. I don't have any in my family. It's not that common

Two. One is five and one is about eight.

Adult Patricks I know are at least 50.

Loads of all ages in Ireland.

In my experience UK Patricks tend to be posh army types.

I know one who is about 8 and one who is about 17.

I know 5 Patricks. They are all children at my daughters school, it's a very popular name at her (catholic) school.

My partners Irish, let's just say I have no problem remembering the names of any of his male relatives
