Frank?

[MustardScreams]

My grandpa was a Frank and I desperately want to name my next baby after him. Just wondering the general consensus? Is it awful? I have an Imogen, and not entirely sure they go!

I quite like Francis, which would go nicely with Imogen - but I really don't like Frank. Sorry. Totally up to you, though, of course.

It flows better as Frank and Imogen rather than Imogen and Frank imo.

Or you could use Frank just as a middle name, or have official name Francis, Frank nickname.

Frankie might be better?

I love Francis and Frank.

I prefer Frankie xx

I love Franklin, it’s my DS’s middle name

I like it, I hate Frankie though. If the name means alot to you then go for it as you won't regret it. My kids middle names are after grandparents. Not to everyone's taste but I can't imagine them with other names and the sentiment outweighs people's opinion.

Frank is awful. It's such a harsh ugly sounding name.

Frank is a great strong solid name! Underused classic.

Frankie is cutesy and twee and more suited to a little girl.

If you like it though and it means so much to you then you should use it.

Detest frankie but love frank

Frank is a brilliant name. Solid, traditional, retro and cool without being try-hard.

I have one, he's named after my grandad too 😊.

HATE Frankie for boys but love it for girls .

I say go for it 👍.

It’s a nice name but it just makes me think of drugs now

I just can't picture a baby called Frank op. I get that he won't be a baby for long but to me it's like a baby called Gary

I have a Frank and we have many affectionate nn him that we use, Frankiedoodle, Frank the Tank, Franchesca

Oh my poor boy

I think it lends itself to children of all ages and there's another boy the same age as him called Franklin who is still called Frank 99.9% of the time anyway

I would go Francis nn Frank

I love Franklin and Frank is a cool nn in my opinion. Fits in nicely with all the little Stans, Arthurs etc

I think it's a cool name & goes nicely with Imogen.

Frank is nice.

I love Frank. It works well with Imogen.

Frank seems like a completely different style of name to Imogen IMO.

Was your grandad a ‘francis’ With nickname ‘frank’?

I know some baby Franks. I’d agree Francis with Frank as a nn works a bit better or Franklin as a name works better too.

Adore Frank

Love Francis too

Imogen is lovely, Frank not so much. I think it would be better as a middle name to honour your Grandad.
