How popular is the name Archie where you are? If you could also put where you are from just so I can see popularity in area's as where I am from I do not know a single Archie..

It is a family name and I really love it

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

If you love it and it has a meaning to you then use it.

I'm in West Sussex and I haven't met any recently

I only know one Archie, who is 2. I’m in the South West.

Whatsyourflava · 03/07/2020 21:03

I've never met any!

Two Archie's - 13 and 17 and both very lovely young men

I'm a teacher fwiw and I haven't met any Archie's in either of the schools I have taught at. I did however teach and Archer and thought it was pretty cool

Know of one aged 12. We're in the North East.
If it has a special meaning then I'd used it. One of my dc has a family name which is consistently in the top 10-15 names however in her school there is only one other child with her name. There are a few rarer names with multiple children having them you can never guess what will be common/rare by the time they reach school.

I'm a teacher in the North West and we have 4 at my school at the moment (out of about 350 boys).
If you like it and it means something to you, then go for it!

Midlands.
There are Archies in almost all the Nurseries I visit, but they aren't over running the Nurseries.

East mids here and I know 5 under the age of 4.

North East here, I only know two. One is my godson who's 6 the other is 3 (not 100% sure on the age as only know of him as I went to school with his mum)

South East London here and have only heard of one Archie, the son of an ex-colleague.

It's quite popular here in the SE. Also lots of Alfies and Alfies.
Not keen, sorry.
