Harvey?

[Gigi97]

Opinions on this name for a baby boy?

[Cocopogo]

Awful

[stickygotstuck]

Lovely. I also know a very nice teenager with the name.

As for associations, you can't control that. Things change. Take my 44 year old friend Alexa, for example. Still a lovely name which she likes it's her identity. And there's always an idiot or two, and you have no control over those anyway. Go for it I'd say.

I don't mind it. While I don't think Harvey is super popular, it does fit within the current boys name trend of fairy traditional names ending in an 'eee' sound.

Harvey is a common enough name that I don't think Weinstein makes it unusable as there are many other associations too - some people will immediately think Weinstein, but I didn't, I thought Katie Price and her son. I don't see this as a 'bad' association, Katie is not perfect and not everyone likes her, but it's widely accepted that she has been a wonderful mother to Harvey.

[wingsofabird]

I really like it

[WhoppingBigBackside]

It's quite nice

[onedayoranother]

Very old fashioned.

I’m showing my age because I immediately thought six foot invisible rabbit.

[StrychnineInTheSandwiches]

I think Harvey's Bristol Cream, Katie Price's son, and Harvey Smith the show jumper guy.

I think it's a lovely snake and didn't think of any of the connections til they were painted out on here. Even still doesn't over power it

[liveforsummer]

Snake? Bloody auto correct. NAME

[CheeseMmmm]

Most people will surely think KP or Weinstein.

First one no reason not have same name as her son. Just question if want to have same name as he vv well known iyswim.

[CheeseMmmm]

Well tbh my very first was Harvey E17 but thought that probably not most people thing!

[MargotsBumpyNight]

Lovely name. I associate it with the Jimmy Stewart film first and foremost too.

@Snowiscold

I quite like it. I know a super one in his 20s. He’s quite posh, so it has those vibes to me.

Was it Brian Harvey? [Grin]

If so can I meet him?

Used to love E17 back in the day!

[etulosba]

Very old fashioned

I have known several Harveys in the last few years. Age range 18 to early 20s.

[StrychnineInTheSandwiches]

I think of all Katie Price’s children Harvey by far got the best name. Bunny and Princess not so much.

[LondonWolf]

I think it’s a dog’s name. I know so many.

[Blueberryflavour]

I like it, I know a lovely teenage Harvey so only positive associations for me.

Junior and Jet aren’t the best to be fair. Harvey definitely won the baby name lottery in that house! I’d hate to be called Bunny or Princess as a real life person.

[Curiousmouse]

I don't like it

[StrychnineInTheSandwiches]

I forgot about Junior and Jet! Yikes.

[Norts10]

I know a Harvey born last year, I hadn’t associated the name with Weinstein or Katie Price until now,
I don’t think anyone would unless they were looking for a connection.
It’s a nice name.

[Firebird83]

Don’t like it at all

[OverByYer]

I love the name.
My son is aged 20, he is lovely and his name totally suits him.
Its a very old name, from the French Hervé.
I know it doesn't pass the MN test but each to their own.

[TheBermudaTriangle]

Not a fan - too many creepy old men called Harvey and in of itself it is a very "wet" name.
