Frank

How popular has this become near you recently? Pretty much set for DS2 but heard of a few recently.
Brother for Arthur

Lovely name x

If you are in England and Wales, here is the recent popularity for Frank. It’s on a general upward trend, but still not near the top hundred. It’s worth noting that Frankie is top hundred, and Franklin is also rising, but all together still not as popular as Arthur.

Doesn't seem popular where I am in the North East. I know 1 teenage Frank. I do know a few Frankie's all girls.

To me it sounds very old fashioned. Like an Uncle Frank from the sixties. But hey, names come and go.

Cute without being twee cheeky-chappy.

I like it.

Haven't heard of any here and I do love it. Had an Uncle Frank who was a bit of a war hero.

I like it/ I'd go for Francis nn Frankie

I've only met one child, well baby, with that name. It's one of the ugliest names ever though.

I agree with this bloke.

Francis is a lovely name and offers the option of Frank as the nickname or the known by name. Plus if Frank should fall out of fashion Francis is a good solid fallback name - seems an ageless name to me.

Love it. I know of one in my daughter’s friendship circle and I’ve only ever heard it one other time when we’ve been out.

I love the name Francis!
