I really like Arthur.
Thoughts on the name in general and any nicknames would be appreciated:)

I can only associate Arthur with the white cat that used to eat Kattomeat (good Lord I wonder what it was made of!!!) out of a tin with his paw. 😉

Love it!

Not super keen on any of the shortenings - I like the full thing.

Nice name but likely to be several in each class.

Its the new jack or callum, really common!

Yawn overused and likely to fall out of fashion and start to sound dated.

I also wouldn't shorten Arthur - it's only 2 syllables

Lovely name. It was the tenth most popular boys’ name in the UK this year.

I know a few little Arthurs- nn Art, Artie, Arts.

Fourth, and it was third the year before. It’s very very popular.

I love it, it was on my boy list but it’s also a family name for me. It’s definitely becoming very popular, and although I don’t like popular names I don’t think I’d rule it out for that.

I like it but it is very very popular at the moment.
