How would you describe this name?

[Avocadosmoothie]

Hugo!

I can’t say it without sounding really posh - same with Hugh and therefore would avoid at all costs.

Parents are tossers unless they are landed gentry

Posh, chinless

Wonderful name for a Frenchie or pug

I can’t read it without imagining it being read in an overly posh,mocking tone.

Every Hugo I know is perfectly normal, it was on my list!

If mine had been boys one would have been Hugo. Love it.

My fav. boys' name. Sadly it doesn't go with our surname. We are far from posh! It's definitely making a comeback.

I've never met a Hugo. First thoughts, posh with lots of properties.

Like fog; wet and thick.

 bit in the Fox/Oscar/Arlo mould - upper-middle-class try-hard.

It's a perfectly nice name . I do find all these connotations putting me off now.

Quite posh, frequently bewildered but kind. Probably has dark hair.

I think it is a very nice name, OP.

Wonderful. Makes me think of victor hugo, was on our shortlist both times. Very nice, nuetral name.

Posh, privileged, self important, arrogant

Parents are a tad affected.

I had an inflatable alien called Hugo years ago.

Parents trying to be posh

...unless it's a genuine nod to Victor Hugo per Ttbb by parents who have actually read Victor Hugo

Pretentious, privileged, annoying

I love it, it's one of ds's names but me and dh had different opinions on it, I think preppy, he thinks fat!

I have a Hugo! We're not trying to be posh and he isn't fat or chinless. It's a French name (DH is French)

He mostly gets called Hugs or Huggsy

My dog is called Hugo so I love it. I have a friend who named her son it though and whenever we’re together and someone asks ‘How’s Hugo’ I’m like oh he’s great!!... oh yeah... baby not dog my bad!’

StatueInTheSky,

That sign's brilliant!

OP,

I'm undecided about Hugo. I like the name itself, esp the meaning "mind, heart and spirit", and it works internationally.

I know one adult Hugo (late 30s), who is about as far from the stereotype as it's possible to be, and has the sharpest sense of humour ever. Have occasionally come across the 'old money/ family connections/ traditional' kind of Hugo, but wouldn't pre-judge before getting to know them better.

No little Hugos around here, but several Hughs.

Really like it. shortens well (Hugh or Hew). Middle class or posh. Well behaved child
