Is Bruce due a comeback?

[OopsOutnumbered123]

I’m pregnant with my second son and we quite like Bruce as a first name, however it gets a very mixed response off our families when we discuss it. Is it due a comeback do you think? Or are pregnancy hormones disrupting my thinking 🤔😅

I've only ever heard the name Bruce for a pet, a labrador dog and someone's cat.

We had a baby boy in January 2024 and named him Bruce we had a lot of mixed response but generally positive and when people meet him they say it really suits him🥰I was so nervous at first about people not liking it but now I don’t care if people don’t like it how can you not like a baby?! I think Bruce is a perfect name and I think it will make a comeback so I knew I would be upset with myself if I didn’t name him Bruce and then I heard of someone else naming their baby Bruce I would be a bit upset I didn’t go through with it. Have you had your baby yet? And if so what name did you go with?

I know 3 young Bruce’s. They’re all dogs though.

Yep, like Brian - in 20 years nurseries will be full of Pamelas and Patricias too.

Saying that it won’t sound odd to his peer group now, only to adukts.

Someone said that names come back for pets a decade or two before they do for humans, I think that’s probably right. I know a goldfish called Nigel.

My cousin just gave her son Bruce as a middle name.

I know a Bruce who is 12 and it works fine
