Too dated?

It's dated but not so dated that I'd call it unusable

SuperBeagle · 02/07/2017 01:34

Too dated.

pilotswife · 02/07/2017 02:09

No

squoosh · 02/07/2017 02:12

Probably having a resurgence in Canada.

Cavender · 02/07/2017 02:49

I like it.

Ankleswingers · 02/07/2017 03:25

Makes me think of Mr Tumbles.

I can think of better names tbh.

DownUdderer · 02/07/2017 03:27

Don't like this name

The Bieber connotation fights with the Trudeau so I think they cancel each other out Grin

KoalaDownUnder · 02/07/2017 03:44

Too dated.

The Justins I know are all 40 and have sisters called things like Lisa and Michelle.

Stopnamechanging · 02/07/2017 04:21

I like it, a change to all the Jacks, Harry's, Oliver, Theo's etc.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 02/07/2017 05:45

It's dated, but I love it

GinIsIn · 02/07/2017 05:52

It is dated but not terrible. Unless your surname is Case..... Grin

I had a cat called Justin after Justin Hawkins in The Darkness.

petitesassygirl · 02/07/2017 07:15

Ooh no

Fueledwithfairydustandgin · 02/07/2017 07:27

I would always want today time after it bit iwrote off so many names with my weirdness Blush

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 02/07/2017 09:05

No, no, no...

Mrsknackered · 02/07/2017 11:39

First thought, The Darkness dad was a superfan

Second thought, Mr Tumble

Neither great connotations!

Giantwhoopsie · 02/07/2017 11:50

Too dated.

Lulue45 · 02/07/2017 12:24

Makes me think of Mr Tumble-oh how I hate that man! (Cue singing 'Justin's House theme tune in my head on repeat)

zeebeedee · 02/07/2017 12:50

Bieber
Timberlake
Trudeau (sp? sorry)
Mr Tumble
The Darkness
..... Case
...... Time

sorry, it's a no from me - that is I wouldn't use it - lots of people obviously would/have or there wouldn't be so many connections

HelenaJustina · 02/07/2017 12:57

But Trudeau is the man... I really like it!

I think a lot of you are right in that it's too associated with a lot of celebrities / famous people. Trudeau is a good association though! Bieber not so much...

How about Credible as a middle name?
I'm not mad about it but it is OK. At least it is a change from Harry, Oliver, Jack, Noah, Elliott and Theo.

Montsti · 03/07/2017 22:13

I really don't like it...
