what do british people think of the name Kai?

[coffeeghost]

Heyo!
someone in another thread told me that they think Kai is a nice name if you have a German or Scandinavian background. (which is the case with me) So I don't really know what British people think or rather why they think it's a "chavy" name. How come?

Kai is a beautiful name.
KAI (gender neutral) This chill little name is multicultural. In Hawaiian, Kai refers to the "sea." In Native American, it refers to the "willow tree." It also means "graceful." The sea represents life while the willow tree represents stability, strength, growth and harmony.
I picked this name for my son. I am British. I working class citizen and it would be ashame for any individual to cast negative judgement on it.
However to those who do... I'm sure within this world there is also someone else with your name who you consider a chav.

I have always loved it and I don’t think of it as a ‘chavvy’ name.

I hate to admit it (because I don’t like the term) but the only name I would class as ‘chavvy’ are names hyphenated with the likes of Rose, May, Grace etc.
