How many Jude’s do you know?

[Lilyrudi93]

I’m thinking of calling my second DS Jude but I am worried about its popularity. I’ve personally never met a male baby or adult Jude but have seen about 5 influencers on Instagram naming their child this! It does put me off but would it be silly to not use it for this reason even though I love it? I had the same issue with the name Ezra with ds1 and in the end didn’t go with it because it suddenly got very popular when I thought I was being unique! I really don’t want a ‘trendy’ name for my child that will date badly. Is Jude one of those names??

I work in schools and it’s not one I hear often.

i know one person called Jude . He is in his early twenties

3 - one woman in her forties, one woman in her twenties, one teenage boy.

2, one a baby and one who is about 8.

The only Judes I know in person are middle aged women.

One person. The family are Christians.

One man in his 50s.

Jude was on my boy list. With Miles, Giles and
Julian.
We have met one Jude in baby group so far.

None

Women in their 60s and ice cream.

3 boys. One a toddler. Two primary school age.

I know one almost 4 year old. And it's bloody adorable on a little kid. It's also one of those great names that everyone knows but not many people are called so you won't have that awkward thing of a new teaching staring at a register trying to work out the next name that's written down.

Two kids in my sons class (primary)
Three Jude’s in senior school
Two Jude’s from football

Popular around here I guess?

I don't know any but it was on my short list for DS. We have a long surname and went with a two syllable name instead just because it felt more balanced

This uses American data

Never met a jude

One in DS class, aged 7. Son if a wannabe influencer. I like the name.

2!

Worked in schools and nurseries and never known a boy called Jude. I like it!

Law, Bellingham, Hey, ice cream.

The only male Judes I know are law and Bellingham, none in real life.
I really like it - it would have been on our list if we were having a boy

I know one female who's actually Judith but has always gone by Jude. She's in her 60's

2
One is 5 and make and the other is a female adult (mid 40's).

I know or know of about 4. Two are adults - a young man and a female friend in her 40s

I've worked in a school, nursery and as a nanny and I've never come across a Jude. I absolutely love it though!
My auntie was known as Jude but her full name was Judith

I know three Judes. One is a colleague in his early 20s and the other two are kids - one is about 10 (son of an old school friend) and the other is a toddler (son of a colleague).
