Thoughts on Eugene

[17caterpillars1mouse]

What are your thoughts on Eugene for a boy?

Really don't like it- sorry

Really dislike it and I can’t really explain why. It just seems a bit wet and creepy!

No.

Makes me think of grease and I’m not a fan sorry.

But frankly if you like it, who cares.

I think of a rather outdated US oil baron.

Taking the old man naming trend a step to far in my opinion

Careful with that Axe, Eugene!
Pink Floyd. Probably not relevant
.

Awful.

I like Gene, as in Kelly, and also the Guv' no r in Life in Mars.

Sorry no

I like it.

Awful

What about Gene for short?

I like it!

Awful, sorry. it's my dads middle name and even hates it!

I prefer Yevgeny, the Russian version. Eugene is just.... eh... I can’t explain it. It makes me think of a really old guy in a plaid V-neck. There are some names that are horrible in English but work in other languages for some reason. Like Irene in English versus Irene in Spanish, which sounds much prettier.

I prefer Gene

I like it in Russian too.

I thought of Grease straight away. I’m not a fan of it.

Gene is fine, but Eugene is awful.

Awful. Sorry

I don't like it at all.

Call him Gene - much cooler.

Love it!

I quite like it. I like Eugenia for a girl too.

I don't really like it. It gives me a weird image of slicked bad hair and oily skin. I don't know why, maybe it's the way the name sounds when you pronounce it...

My weirdness aside, it is your child Though maybe as a middle name?
