I love Stanley! I know a fab 11 year old Stanley and it suits him brilliantly.

Gorgonemilezola · 20/04/2024 23:01

Me too - great name.

yeah i have a friend called stanley... he's not a nice guy... that spoils the name for me

RomeoMcFlourish · 20/04/2024 23:12

Not keen, personally. But I just don’t like ‘old man’ names. If you like it, go for it.

Road.
(Paul walker cd). Sorry.

Why are you friends with him?

NuffSaidSam · 20/04/2024 23:28

It's very much in the current trend of old man names, which means it will date. I don't mind it as a name though.

I used to know a Great Dane called Stanley, he was a good egg.

Not
It is awful

Cup?

There's a lot of names on Mumsnet that get love but don't in the real world - it seems this is one of them, it's terrible!

SomeBollocks · 20/04/2024 23:38

I'm not keen

LemonySnickets · 20/04/2024 23:55

I love it!

SabbatWheel · 20/04/2024 23:55

Love it! Well worth a revival.

CamaMass · 21/04/2024 00:00

Yep I know as really cute dog called Stanley

DramaAlpaca · 21/04/2024 00:03

I tend not to like this style of vintage male name, but I love Stanley.

boydcrowderfallsout · 21/04/2024 00:06

It's a great name, know one little two year old Stanley

RuthW · 21/04/2024 00:48

Flat Stanley.

I have taught a couple. They were both cool kids, clever and into indie rock music. I like it.

It was on my list for a boy. Love it!!!
