A lovely name and I don’t know any baby Patricks- it is refreshing and classic at the same time.

Love Patrick. It’s classic without being ubiquitous and not trendy enough to date. Would be close to the top of my list for a boy.

Love it. I also think Paddy is a lovely nn

I adore Patrick. Unfortunately I detest all the possible diminutives so it's middle name territory only for me.

I love it, but don’t like any of the usual diminutives.

I loved it for DS but in the end used it as his middle name as I really didn’t like any of the nn which I felt would inevitably get used!
