What is your opinion of the boys name: Heath?

Just looking for thoughts really.

We like strong, slightly uncommon boys names but nothing too crazy/out there. Just wondered how it would be perceived on a LO.

Any similar names, or middle name suggestions appreciated!

So nice and strong, lovely change from all the cutesy names (Alfie, Archie, Ollie, Teddie etc)!

Sounds like Keith to me

I love it. An American friend's son is called Heath, and he is adorable. He suits his name perfectly

Beamur · 29/06/2020 13:42

It's a great name. I know one little boy called this.

Rafflesway · 29/06/2020 13:45

👍👍👍!

PersonaNonGarter · 29/06/2020 13:46

It’s great.

emmathedilemma · 29/06/2020 13:56

ooh no, very American and i think you'd spend a lot of time saying "no, not Keith...."

PaulinePetrovaPosey · 29/06/2020 14:04

My first thought is 'Heath Ledger was hot in his heyday, my second thought is that it's a naff name. Sorry.

DanniArthur · 29/06/2020 14:06

I'm another person who thinks "Heath Ledger" and then "Heathcliff" from wuthering heights. I do like it as a name though, it's unique without being silly and I generally like nature names.

Edenember · 29/06/2020 14:49

@CathyWuthering lovely. Comfy to wear but not dull.

FizzyGreenWater · 29/06/2020 15:23

Yes, like a lot.

Lavenderbluesy · 29/06/2020 16:11

How does Heath sound like Keith Grin? Do you not pronounce the first letter?

SumAndSubstance · 29/06/2020 16:27

Er, they rhyme?
It makes me picture a surfer dude. Which isn’t necessarily a bad thing!

sibbys · 29/06/2020 17:58

What a great and solid name!

Tigger001 · 29/06/2020 18:15

Love it , I actually love heathcliff, but would choose Heath as its great name.

Nellydean21 · 29/06/2020 18:17
