Frank

[ScorpioMamax2]

I really love Frank but how
popular is it?
Is it a hard name to pull off?

I love it. Half my male relations seem to be Franks. I wouldn't consider Frankie except as a pet name.

Spenser
Butcher
Sinatra

Just no.

I don't link it with those names. I think of it as more like Albert and other names that men would have had around WW1

I think of it as an old man's name to be honest.

Some Franks from WW1. A positive thing to me

I immediately thought of the drug advice helpline. It's not one of my favourite names but not the worst.

Being perfectly honest, maybe even a little blunt
Do you mean you are "being frank!?"

It is coming back OP, and I can see how it could be cute, but for me, too, it is forever Frank Spencer.

Maybe when I see it on a few more little faces with sticky-up baby hair I will start coming round.

Yes, it belongs with that bundle to me too.

It isn't a million miles from Fred and I rather like Frederick and Freddie.

It’s ok but I would only use it as a nn for Francis

25 years of teaching and never met a Frank. A couple of Franklins though. Frank is a nice strong name.

I love it. It has character.

I love Francis and it's my DS's name ❤️

I love it!

Francis or Franklin, lovely, but can't imagine a little Frank!
Not saying I don't like it, just sounds a bit "older" to be. My grandad and his best friend were both Frank!

My grandad was Frank (Francis). It’s a nice name.

I’ve only ever known a handful. One would be in his early 100s, mornings 60s and a couple in their teens. I really like it.

Love it as it was my late dad's name.
Due for a revival. In 40 years of teaching I never taught a Frank.

NC obviously

I have a 14mo Frank! Everybody calls him Frankie for now, though. We chose Frank as his ‘proper’ name but felt like he needed to grow into it a little it was my Grandad’s name (not from birth, but it’s the name he chose for himself when he came to the UK in his 20s as his Polish birth name was very difficult to pronounce) so it’s very special to me.

He always gets compliments on his name, and we’ve yet to meet another baby Frank! We have met plenty of canine Franks, though, if that might put you off?

I taught a Frank (uni age) last year, and previously taught a guy whose name was Jack Frank Surname - both lovely lads and the names suited them well. I now teach a very nice Frankie who is a young woman. I don’t know if her proper name is Frances or Francesca, all her documentation is Frankie so it’s possibly a complete name.

Frank. Frankfurter. Prank. Just no.
Reminds me of a bald-headed man with those round, owl-like glasses.

Frank is short for Francis.

Frank as a name or short for Francis? Makes me think of Far From the Madding. Crowd. He wasn't all bad. But yes, a nice name overall.

My grandfather was Frank. He was never bumbling nor stupid.

It's a cool name. Likely to become even more popular before it peaks imo.

My dad was just Frank, not short for Francis. His dad was the same.

I love Frank!
