Megan Trainors called her new baby boy Barry.

Baby Barry?

I never thought I'd see that one make a comeback!

Oh yes, I could never work out if the ditched-at-the-wedding ex of Rachel's in Friends was 'Berry' or 'Barry'.

Kevin and Sandra’s

I doubt it has the same connotations as it does in the UK. There’s a US tv series, Barry, about a hit man. Here, it would have invited sniggers.

My toddler's middle name is Barrie I didn't love it at all at first... but it's a family name for my husband's family, so I went with it. I actually like it quite a lot now tbh!

I do think a lot of names from that sort of era will be back within 10 years or so.

I genuinely really like Sharon 😬 I also think Sandra will be a trendy one in about ten years.

Well, I kind of like it.
It's only one letter different from Harry which is and has been mega popular for ages. So the sound is already familiar, and I think it will be an easy one to make a comeback for that reason.
But my daughter is called Shirley, so don't listen to me 🤣

I love the name Shirley. It's a real pop star name.

I love the name Barry Bruce Trainer for the new one.

I was reading a thread the other day where a woman had met a man and hated his name. It was almost enough to put her off. His name was Barry.

I know a baby Martin, and my cousin had a baby Roger. They do stand out amongst all the Noahs and Reubens. In a good way.

I used to work with a lovely man called Barry so I like it!

@AutumnCrow I wrote off for a signed photo of Barry Grant. I pretended to be my own dad, asking for it for my birthday.
🤣

Barry round here means 'brilliant' Roger means something rather more rude in one meaning or just associated with someone dodgy in another so I'd say Barry is actually far better 😅

Barry from Eastenders and Barry from Extras

Nowt wrong with Barry. It's a proper name.

There is a Barry in pokemon... it's cool

If he's as cute as his brother he'll own it.

Baby Baz, already a legend

I suppose Americans don't have Welsh lorry drivers.

I don't understand the attraction of cute names like Alfie, yes they're cute as a name when the child is young but I don't necessarily think they age well .
