Doug?

[nothingbreaks]

What do you think of Doug?? DH loves it! I'm unsure...

I quite like the full name Douglas. I'd only consider it as a middle name though, because I'm not keen on Doug or Douggie/Dougie.

I think it's quite dated.

I like it. I feel it's a classic though I'm Scottish so maybe that makes a difference.

Love it!

I don't mean to be unkind, but I genuinely think Doug might be the most plain and boring name there is...probably an opinion entirely based on the cartoon Doug. He was very plain and boring.

Hate it. Dated and dull.

I know a little boy called Doug (Douglas) he’s about 4, older sister Robyn.

I dislike the sound — it’s a sort of grunt. Also unpleasantly like dug or dugs.
Douglas would be a great middle name.

Unless you want him to be called Hey Duggee! Forever I'd find another option. Not a fan either.

I really like it!

Douglas, yes.

If it was Douglas then yes

Good Scottish name

Like it short for Douglas.

What do you call a man with a spade on his head? Doug
What do you call a man without a spade on his head? Douglas

So it's a no from me as that's the first thing that came to mind. Sorry op.

Douglas is great actually, as long as he's a wee Dougie for short

But 100% flat NO to 'Doug' as the full name, if that's what your DH means. Appalling.

Husband is called Douglas. Horrible name

I like Douglas, Doug for short

I actually really like it, it's one of those names I really like even tho it's out of my usual taste in names. I think it works for every age too, it's a lovely name :)

Doug - no. It's an abbreviation and I've lost count of the Scottish dogs I've met named Doug (because of the similarity in sound).
Douglas - not my favourite, but a perfectly good name.
Dougal - I really prefer, but that's perhaps because I've met several nice people with the name.

Nice short for Douglas. Dougie is cute too.

I love it! Under-used classic. I'd probably go Douglas on the birth certificate and Doug or Dougie as the nn.

I knew a Dhuglas. I love that spelling.

Surely Dhuglas would be Do-Glas not more Dug-las?
I quite Douglas / Doug/ Dougie, I know a few of varying ages so it doesn't strike me as dated.

I Scotland, as others have noted, it's a mainstream, unobjectionable first name.
