What do you think of Victor?

[Marbles321]

With James as a middle name?
DP loves it, I move between loving it and feeling like it's a bit too bold. Thoughts?

Too harsh. I see a stern Russian fella lol

Meldrew!!!
Seriously though I know of an elderly man with the name and he's horrible. So, no from me

Sorry don't like it. James is lovely though 😊

Absolutely awful.

I’ll go against the popular opinion here and say i think it’s lovely! Bit different but not too out there. I don’t think many people under 30 will think of the Meldrew association either

I like it. Different, strong and I like a name beginning with V.

I like it . It is my BIL name. Was on my list had either dd been a ds. Xx

I really like it. It’s on our list!

Horrible name.

I dislike it, sorry. Vincent is nicer, less harsh sounding. I love James though.

I love it.

Love it - very strong name

Like it. Vic for short.

I like Victor! We had Vincent on our list if we had a boy, I like names beginning with V, they seem just the right amount of different.

Victor’s a great name, my cousin has it.

Not a fan. Much prefer Vincenzo nn. Enzo / Vince. :)

I like it.

I know a lovely teen called Victor. Cool kid, bright, handsome and well mannered.
Therefore I have positive associations with the name and like it .

Its very polish. I like it.

Thanks guys! It's a real marmite name isn't it? We are after something strong and masculine, but want to avoid anything that is too common or too "out there". I also like Fredrick but DP isn't keen. Other thought was Dominic, but that's possibly a bit 'fancy ' . Grateful for any other suggestions that come to mind along those lines though!

I like it OP.
Other similar feel ones to me are:

Magnus
Maxim
Rex
Alexei
Raymond
Valentine

It's an old drunk in a pub with missing teeth kind of name. Sorry.

Anyone says Victor and I automatically think Bet Victor and I don't even gamble

Don’t like victor sorry

Humphrey?
Robert?
John?
Alfred (Freddie)?
Franklyn?
Austen?

Maxim (max) nice too
