Asking for a non mumsnetter...

[newnameneeded29]

Does Levi make you think:
A) Jewish? (She's not, is that a problem?)
B) that word that people don't like to hear but denotes a particular social background
C) a nice name?
D) jeans

B

Sorry but B.
I picture a badly behaved child who's allowed to run a mock and the parents just laugh and let him get away with it.
They'd have no problems about sizing up the teacher if they dare complained about his behaviour.
Hope I've not caused upset but You or rather your friend did ask.

B & D

B&D.

I love it, but prefer for a bit

*boy

B & D

A and D. First thought on seeing the name was tax collector so definitely biblical and second was Nick Kamen - I loved that ad.

First thought Jeans - but not in a bad way
Religious (Christian or Jewish)
Wouldn’t have thought B (chav?) but maybe because I’ve never met a Levi.

A bit of B but I think it could be a really cool name.

I'm Jewish and don't know any Levi's (well I know one but he isn't Jewish, he is a pain in the arse though). Levy is a Jewish surname, not Levi.

Jeans. There is a child called that in school with dc. I always think of jeans when I hear his name.

Levi is a common name within afro carribean community, there's a few in my family. it's as normal to us as say Oscar for white people and Muhammad for asains

B from personal experience

Obviously makes you think of the jeans however I really like this name 😊

Very much B and then jeans!

Jeans and Levi Roots for me...

C. Cool name.
Possibly A but my DS has a Jewish name and we’re not Jewish, we like the name and decided it was no big deal.

B
My very first thought was Levi Bellfield

I think it has certain religious significance to Jewish people, it would be similar to calling a child Vicar.

Same as FinnegansCake

I thought of Levi Bellfield as well.

< shudders>

Jeans and Reggae sauce for me. No negative feelings about the name.
I associate the name with the Caribbean community so would assume a Levi to have their roots there some where, but it wouldn't cause any more than a brief 'ah' if they weren't.

DH (whose DPs were Jamaican) says when he hears the name he thinks either black and inner city, or poor, white and possibly inner city.

Honestly the first thing I thought of was Brian Harvey from East17s dog

Jeans, hipster, Levi Roots!
