Red

[GRW]

What do people think of Red or Redmond for a boy? I saw the American Red Gerard win Gold in the slopestyle snowboarding today. I hadn't heard the name before but like it.

I quite like it.

After all there are plenty of Rubys Ambers
and Siennas running around all colour names.

Dh's cousin is Redmond. Red is his nickname. I think it's a great name. He is a very cool guy and I think it really suits him.

My first thought was Red Alderton, so I don't like it...

Great, but I'd give a longer full name.

Quite like the idea of Rufus nn Red!

Hate it. It reminds me of a lot of other crap American names like
Chuck or Chad

My dog is called Red. Reddington is his full name as a massive Blacklist fan.
Not sure about Red for a baby though 🤔

I'll have some of whatever you're drinking.

There was an old Irish man called Redmond who was heavily involved in my church growing up, he was really grumpy and rude and rather a hideous person to be honest.

The name is normal and Red is a nice shortening of it though.

They used to be an American firefighter called Red Adair. Always thought that was a cool name.

Simply Red?

I just Googled it - Red Adair’s name is Neil.(Don’t google Reds Addaire...)

I heard of a 5 year old Redvers recently, shortened to Red , it’s an old English name.

Whilst deciding on a name for my son I called him red (because of his complexion) it really grew on me.
I'm not hippy enough to use it unfortunately & it would make no sense with my other children's names but I love it

Don't really like Red. Sorry...

I really like it!

We have a Redvers in our family nn Red

It would be a strange name unless the baby had red hair I think.

I like it.

I'm so disappointed I didn't call my son's Red and Green as I'm called Amber 😂😂😂

Red is not a name, it’s a colour.

I know a Red. Female though not male.

Redmond?... Unusual but wouldn't look too out of place today, on the upside he'd stand out in his class.

I saw this guy too 😂 yeah I was a bit curious about his name, although it’s nit the first time I’ve heard red it’s the first time ive heard redmond 😊 I kinda like it 👍

What if he has red hair?

I knew a Redmond , known as Reddy ; I always thought it sounded a bit rakish.

Ironically, Redmond, the US snowboarder has the sirname Gerard. I iniatially thought they were calling him by his sirname and his first name was Gerald.
