Papa!

Like it!

Headlesschic · 05/04/2020 22:55

Dated.

Reminds me of 90s pop stars

soupforbrains · 05/04/2020 22:58

I really like it as a name. I know a few, but all from different age groups ranging from 15 through to late 50s

I think it’s a really lovely name.

McMaman · 05/04/2020 22:59

It's pretty

TrophyCat · 05/04/2020 22:59

Hate it.

ofwarren · 05/04/2020 23:00

I think it's a very nice name. You don't see it very often.
Lovely sounding name.

ParsleyPot · 05/04/2020 23:11

I like it

VenusClapTrap · 06/04/2020 18:38

Don’t like it. Reminds me of a rash of Nicoles who pronounced it Ni-coal when I was young.

pilates · 06/04/2020 19:08

It’s ok, don’t love it

MikeUniformMike · 06/04/2020 19:26

Dated and downmarket.

DariaMorgendorffer · 06/04/2020 19:27

I love this name, always have.

Standrewsschool · 06/04/2020 19:27

Pretty

rollonoctober · 06/04/2020 19:27

How else do you pronounce Nicole if not Ni- coal?!

I like it OP. Definitely not downmarket!

SipChampagneLikeWeThirstay · 06/04/2020 19:28

It’s dated, but I think eventually it will have classic status. Similar to Simone. It’s a nice name, simple but classy.

Toilenstripes · 06/04/2020 19:28

Lovely as a middle name

OuterMongolia · 06/04/2020 19:30

I like it.

MysteryFrog · 06/04/2020 19:41

@VenusClapTrap is that not how it should be pronounced?

I’m not a fan, largely because I went to school with a few Nicole’s and none of them were very nice!

PaulinePetrovaPosey · 06/04/2020 19:45

The K sound in the middle is quite harsh.

Naomi?

AJTracey · 06/04/2020 19:47

Most Nicoles and Nicolas are in their 30s-50s so its due a revival!

VenusClapTrap · 06/04/2020 19:51

The o is short. Pronounced Nicol, as Papa does in the advert.

MysteryFrog · 06/04/2020 19:58

@VenusClapTrap I had no idea! I prefer it like that (also I don’t know the advert)

AderynOren · 06/04/2020 20:34

I think it's an ok name. It does sound a bit dated to me. I prefer Nicolle/Nicol - pronounced Nic-oll
