Thoughts on the name Hudson

[lil812]

Since everyone wasn’t a fan of Prairie 😂, I thought it was kind of cute. How do you guys feel about the name Hudson, for a boy of course

No. It's a surname. Bay, River, Kate, Rock,

'Kind of cute' is fine when you're naming a labradoodle but your son isn't going to be a chubby little baby for ever. At some point he'll be an adult male/rocket scientist/bar manager/planning officer.

Most of those names are really popular, with the exception of Jaxon, as Jackson is more well-used than Jaxon. All fine, well used names that wouldn’t raise an eyebrow really

Depends who you mix with. They’re the names of the ‘spirited’ boys in the class.

I see. Glad to know all the ‘spirited’ boys are named Jackson, Kai, or Mason. It must be such a comfort to know all you need to do to ensure your future child’s good behaviour is pick a mumsnet-approved baby name.

And I say that having worked with children for years. Lots of naughty boys named Jackson. Lots of naughty boys named Oliver. Lots of nice boys named Jackson, lots of nice boys named Oliver.

Not round here they’re not.

Exactly

I hate surnames used as first names

I love it

I think it's okay. A damn sight better than Percy and Rupert which I've seen people rave about here.

I really love it. The surname thing wouldn’t put me off, there are loads of names that are also surnames … Thomas, Oliver, James, LOADS!

I definitely think of the Hudson River, which is a great association IMO. Go for it!

Sounds too trendy, don't like it but that's just my taste
