Bruce as a mn?

After FIL?

I don't want to say the first name in fear of outing myself to relatives on here!!

We aren't sure if there's a good reason as to why it's rarely used or if it's a good, bold middle name?! It sounds good with the first name but we're just not 100% sure!

Thoughts please Smile

❤️ Bruce.
I would definitely use if for a first name also !

RedDwarves · 03/05/2018 22:23

I love Bruce.

As a middle name, especially, it's fine.

I think it's a great name! We rented a house from a Bruce. He wasn't just 'a Bruce' he was 'THE Bruce!' Such a character...

Wouldn't for a first name but as a mn it's fine :)

We are currently in the process of adding Bruce as a mn for ds, by deedpoll.
Outstanding name!!

My nephew has two middle names, one of which is Bruce. (after Mr Springsteen!)

daisypond · 04/05/2018 18:30

Yes. It's good.

overnightangel · 04/05/2018 18:32

You've got to balance the Springsteen with the Forsyth and make a decision

IceBearRocks · 04/05/2018 18:43

I know one if the most beautiful Bruce's in the world!!!!!

Auntyirene · 04/05/2018 19:38
