Is Vinnie a popular name ?

[Roxx1516]

I don't anyone called vinnie personally but just wondering is it a popular name or ?

Not popular at all

I only know one, aged 7.

I do like the name vinnie, I don't want a popular name but don't want an extremely un popular name. Would you say the name Vinnie/vinny is a lower class name or middle or upper ? Like i personally cannot imagine a posh family having a Vinnie, I always think posh families have popular traditional names if you know what I mean

I know about 5 baby Vincents or Vinnie. All hipster London babies.

I know a 55 year old Vinny, also known as Vince.

Was on our shortlist, (DH likes motorbikes) but discarded as being a bit mockney.

I know 3 dog Vinnies, one human Vince (aged 70ish)

I would put Vinnie, (on the bc, rather than short for Vincent), in the same bracket as Alfie, Archie, Rudy, Charlie etc. Trendy, ‘cheeky chappy’ Type names.

I only know a dog Vinnie.

It's not super popular but it's on trend with that hipster ish rediscovery of old fashioned names.
In an older person Vinnie (rather than Vincent) would put me in mind of a working class bloke.
But it's not what working class parents are calling their boys now- so it's not likely to have that connotation when he grows up.
I actually like it a lot. I would give him Vincent on the birth certificate though so he can chose when he gets older.
I have a Jimmy (birth certificate- James) though, so obviously I like that asthetic!

Not popular. But I know a Vinnie, short for Lavinia.

Will Vinny/Vinnie have a cousin?

A girl in my DD's class is Vinnie (Lavinia).

I don't think Vinnie is a popular name. I have yet to meet someone with that name. Maybe Vince, Vivie or Viviary.

If you only want to know how common it is, OP, this is a useful website:

names.darkgreener.com/

Vinnie has been going up over the last 20 years but is still very uncommon. Vincent is also uncommon and I'd guess that only a few of those go by Vinnie.

hmm seems to me it's not that comman then, but it's also not unheard of, I want a name that's NOT in the top 50 most popular names, but I don't want a name that's totally un heard of. I think vinnie is a contender then in my book as that's what I want, I want a name that's in the middle of popular and unpopular

I know 3.
One is 78, and 2 four year olds.

2/3 are Vincent's.
