An Irish Wyatt??

[Iluv]

So Im from Ireland, and expecting a baby boy this year, the only name me and my partner like is Wyatt. I've not mentioned it to family and have few friends so I've no one to ask. Is it really a typical American name? What do you think when you hear it? I just don't want to have name regret, thanks... help

I think cowboy when I hear that name. Sorry OP

I would have said it was very American but now I associate it with the Planet Rock DJ, Wyatt. He gets to use the fact that he has an unusual name to just be listed as Wyatt, rather than his full name like most radion presenters.

A friend of mine has a ds called Albie Wyatt which I adore!

Thanks for replies, I guess that's what I'm afraid of, that people will associate it as American cowboy, I don't know whether to just go for it because I like it or try and find another name😔

I rather like it. It makes me think of Robert Wyatt

I like it more than most surnames used as first names. I don't think most people will think of the cowboy. If you like it, go for it!

I dont mind it at all. It may be quite American but that doesn't put me off. Its unusual but not made up. If you and your DP both like its stick with it! It can be so hard to agree!

It's a lovely name! It's not common in the UK but nothing wrong with that.

Wyatt Earp is my first thought. It does seem very American but people will grow to love it I’m sure

This thread is from June

I'm curious to know if the OP went with Wyatt, I kinda like it!
