Opinions on Grant. Too dated? Handsome? Hate it? Thanks

I knew twins called Grant and Phil when I was younger. 😂 they'd be maybe 30 now. I always felt a bit sorry for them but they were awful feral little shits back then so only a bit. 😂

There's nothing actually 'wrong' with the name but I can't imagine seeing a baby Grant these days knowing the Mitchell connection!

Grant Schapps would be enough to put me off it permanently. Though he did go by an alias too so there's an idea.

I say Grant , short A, and DH says Grant, long A, so there's that as well.

Too close to Grunt so conjures pig imagery to me.

I personally love it because it makes me think of money being given and things being allowed. It’s a power word. I think you should go for it.

Don't like it. Reminds me of my great-uncle who was not a very pleasant character. He'd be 120 if he was still with us.

I think of it as a decent Scottish name, a bit out of fashion now but not bad at all. I do think accent matters though.
