I personally don't like it. It's starting to become too common now to use surnames as first names

pofacedandproud · 09/09/2009 14:18

Surname. Except in America.

Not for me.

I hated a teacher called Mrs Reid.
It's not for me.

I don't like surnames for first names either.

It seems to be in trend at the moment though with Harrison, Taylor etc all popular.

A bit wispy, apart from the surname as name drawback, imo.

I like it, and do like surnames as first names for boys.

diddl · 09/09/2009 15:53

It´s a surname to me.

Nope - name of an employment agency.
