Are there any names that you just can't imagine on a baby?

[TheNameNerd]

Each to their own but I just can't picture a baby Frank. It seems such a harsh sounding adult name for a baby especially a newborn yet there have obviously been a lot of baby Franks but somehow I have a mental block when picturing it.

Does anyone else feel this way about a name?

So many😂

Roger
Keith
Victor
Frank
Ernie
Berie

Eric, Mary, Ann, Christine.

I actually really like some of the names listed.

I struggle to imagine a baby Quentin. Or Bertha. Or Boris.

I met a baby Dennis in the park a few months ago, got chatting to the mum & she said he was named after her Dad I rather like it I had an uncle Dennis who was lovely.

Paul

I always liked the name John, but we have a monosyllabic surname which didn’t really work with it.

I know a 3 year old Walter who goes by Walt. He is the most glorious little squidgy bundle of gorgeousness and so I think his name is the ultimate in cool.

Roger
Dolores

@fufflecake oh dear maybe don't tell the scots. I'm Scottish. Nearly every second person I meet here is called Bruce. 😂

Barbara

Dwayne

Christine

My baby’s first and middle name are BOTH on someone’s list here! Haha

Nigel.

I looked after a toddler Richard the other day, felt weird looking at this little boy in a onsie and wellies and calling him Richard.
His family don't shorten it either, it felt really unnatural saying "Do you need a wee Richard?", as if I was asking it of a bank manager.

I've loads.

Denise.
Martin
Howard
Pamela
Wayne
Helen
Brenda
Kenneth
Audrey

I knew a baby Ian but could never have imagined calling my child Ian because it's an automatic 50 year old man name
I think any older name sounds kind of strange but they would usually have been named after an older family member rather than actually just loving the name.

Colin

Malcolm... I just can't picture it on a baby...

Also...Trevor... Colin...Kenneth.. Keith

Girls..

Linda...Maude.. Sharon..Tracey...

I love Delores !!
