Is Vincent A good name??

[EmmaRay]

Any ideas on whether Vincent or vinnie would be a good name for our DS??

I love Vinnie, but would use it as a nickname for Alvin as I don't love the name Vincent.

Vincent is a great name.

No , Im not keen at all!

Absolutely love it and have only met lovely little boys called Vinnie/Vincent. I also think it’s great that it can sound more adult as Vince when they’re older. I would have used it myself if it hadn’t been vetoed

Yes!

Very aggressive sounding name.

No

Yes, great name

I like the name. Have to say though that all the Vinnies I know (only 3 of them so may not be representative) have been complete nutters.

I like it.

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul....

But I agree Vince/Vinnie sounds like a gangster. Or a footballer.

I like Vincent a lot. I know a fab 22-year-old one. It’s a great name. But Vinnie is not. It has a completely different mage, not one I’d want for my child.

Horrible name but who cares what I think? Cal your kid what you like
Why do people want to please others with their kids names ?
I dislike everyone else's name choices

Vincent is a good strong name but always makes me think of Vincent Van Gogh which always makes me so sad. So for me it's a name associated with a troubled life.

The only Vinnie I know of is that twatty pretend "hard man" footballer Jones. So again not the best association for me.

But all babies become their names so if you love it use it.

I love it. We have a very dear Uncle Vince (sometimes called Vin too) he's one of the loveliest and happiest and coolest people I know, despite being in his 70's. I would definitely use it!

I always think of Vincent:/Vinnie as being a hard man/thuggish name. Sorry.

No. I work with two men called Vincent and they're both tossers. I would avoid it like the plague.

Love the name Vincent, and also Vince as a surname but can’t stand Vinnie for some reason.

*nickname

Not a fan X

Sorry but no, I detest this name.
Vincent is a Hyacinth Bucket trytobeposh name, and Vinnie is a burglar.

Vinnie is a burglar

I love it.

Yes! Like Vince as a nn but not keen on Vinnie

Boy aged 13 friends with my Dd is constantly made fun of at school for being called Vincent
