Conrad

[Leeloo1233]

What do you think of this name for a boy? I think it's kind of cool and vintage at the same time

I don't view it as vintage, to me it feels more American.

I'm not really fond of it, but it might just be that we don't share similar taste on names.

I like it. I've only ever met one.

Has someone watched The Kingsman and picked up on the name? 😂
I like it but not for a toddler it’s deffo a man name

It's ok.
It shortens to Con which sounds cool but is a rude word in France, should that be an issue

I haven't, but definitely will now! Hope it's a cool character!

Oh no, I hadn't thought of this! And his dad is French 😅 ok this is why mn is so good!

HTH

That's why the blunt replies are of value.

Nice change to see an OP who appreciates it. I'd cross off Peter too, as much as I like the name, and don't consider Penny for a girl

If you like Conrad, but can't use then these have a similar vibe to me:

Evander
Alaric
Casimir
Lucian

Caleb has a similar feel.

I like it. I like Connor a bit more though.

It's my favourite boys' name ever - I had a daughter so couldn't use it. I think of Heart of Darkness.

Fabulous name. My friend is Conrad but he’s 44.

Don’t know if any others but that’s why I like it so much.

I have a Conrad and it’s never ever been shortened to Con by us or anyone else

It’s a brilliant name. Be prepared for some odd looks when he is a baby but by the time he’s 18 months he will have grown right into it. Mine is 8 now and much cooler and more popular than I was at the same age

See I think of Conrad and Amber in footballer's wives but that's going back a bit 😁

I love it!

I know a Conrad, who will be in his mid fifties now. Very handsome and charismatic, so that's my association with the name. I'd use it.

I was at school with a Conrad, a very cool arty boy who is now a very cool artist. So I’d say go for it, if it wasn’t for the Con/being French thing.

@User4748294496, I have a Conrad and it’s never ever been shortened to Con by us or anyone else

Not yet.

I love it.

I love it. It was on our list.

I know several Conrad’s ranging from 10-90 years. All still called Conrad, never Con.

I like it because my Polish DGF was Konrad. I always thought it sounded friendly... maybe it reminded me of the word 'comrade'.

I like Conrad.

I know one who's always known as Conrad.

I think if his Dad's French I wouldn't!

How about something nicely Anglo-French like Lucian...

The only Conrad I know is never shortened to Con. Cool name.

Great name but then I studied the author at uni. Conrad Anker is another cool Conrad.
