What do you think of Freddie? Do you like it or not?

[leakyR]

DH and I have half agreed on Freddie Joseph for a boy.
DS1 is George Edward.
I'm probably only 80% sure that I like Freddie enough, but we can't agree on another name.

I like Freddie, and Fred too. Love Joseph as well.

Freddie was on my shortlist for DS2
It didnt quite pass the supermarket test for me.
ie would i feel comfortable yelling it in the supermarket!

I think I prefer Fred. Love Joseph, it's dh's grandad's name. Can't use it a a first name as my BF's son is called Joseph.

freddie has connotations but is a sweet name. love joseph.

Ooh the supermarket test is a good one.
Think it might pass.

My nephew is Freddy - suits him. Love the name.

I do love the name though

Connotations Noonki? Are we talking Flintstone or Krueger or something else? Almost scared to ask.

Fred is nice enough, freddie for a young child sure why not?

However, I must ask is your surname Weasley? Because then I think Fred and George could be a mistake.

Love it. The loveliest boys name imo.

I had thought of the Weasley thing too!

My surname is (man's name)son and there's no ginger in either family

sorry leaky not kreuger

(Flintstone surely would be good no )

I meant its a little bit on the posh side.

It is a bit posh, but we aren't and it goes nicely with George.

I think if I'm defending it, then that's a sign that I like it more than I first thought.

It makes me think 'Krueger'

Sorry

Love it!!!

My DS1 is Freddie and it is not at all posh!!

A name is not posh but the person is!

you should go for it then

My rl name is a bit posh (foreign mum) but I'm not so I never get a hard time for it (well not much )

i love it but have an Eddy so can't really put it on my list!

I love it, but my cat got there 1st!

I love it

Alfred or Frederick, Freddie is a nick name

oh, and i like it

Not a fan, sorry.

go for it

What Moonincancer said. It's a nickname. But it is a nice one!
Joseph is DS's middle name and I love it.

We have a Freddie (officially Frederick to give him a choice when he is older) - we love it and it really suits out cheery little man - and people often say they like it...
