Thoughts on the name 'Drake'?

Basically as the title says.

DH really likes this name. I like it too, especially the nature connotation, but I know that it is more unusual.

I have never met a Drake, only know it from a TV show called 'Drake and Josh'.

What do you think of this name? Would you think it was a bit 'out there' if someone you knew named their child Drake?

It’s the name of a very famous hip hop artist from Canada.

I really wouldn’t use it.

Nope really never knew it was a duck.

Drake Carne is Demelza's brother in the Poldark books. He was a lovely character.

I thought Dracob was a joke/wind up?

Was Dracob ever fashionable?

Fair point, I doubt it's ever been very popular.
