Do you like any of these boy names?

Question

Harvey, Howard, Percey, Sowle (pronounced sole)

They are all old family names, but of course very old fashioned. They are all names of people who are gone, but yet very dear to our families. Is it time to revive any of them, or are they all too unusual/outdated?

Answer 1

I think Harvey sounds nice.

Answer 2

How much teasing do you want your child to get in school??

Answer 3

out of those, i think sowle is the most likely to be revive-able

Answer 4

harvy is a nice name. the harv-miseter haha

<3

Answer 5

Truthfully, Harvey's the only name on your list I really like.  

Answer 6

I dont really like any of them, sorry. But if they mean something to you, go ahead and use one.

Answer 7

Howard isn't bad.

Harvey automatically makes me think of a giant invisible rabbit.

Percey & Sowle sound too outdated to me.

Answer 8

Oh boy sweetheart.

I dont mean to burst your bubble...

but Harvey isnt nothing for todays world...

Along with Howard...

Especially since theres a common Howard (stern)

Percey is just i have no clue...

Sowle..sounds foreign and the kid will prolly be made fun of for it

and Phillip just isnt hitting the spot..

Go find a 2008 baby name book...

Very Very adorable names in the baby books =)

maybe even some of them that could mean the same thing as..

Harvey,Howard,Percey,Sowle,or Phillip =)

Answer 9

Sowle is cool its very different

Answer 10

Definitely pick Phillip over all the rest.  I think it's the only one that stands a chance...as long as you don't call him Phil.

Answer 11

phillip is my middle name i like it. i also like harvey.

Answer 12

Sowle and Harvey, like those two and I believe any name is revivable... there are always variations of names and nic names...

Like Howie is a cute nic name for Howard....

Answer 13

I think the names are kind of old fashion but if you want some new names then i would not go with these

Answer 14

When you are naming you baby you should definitely go with what YOU want and disregard what otherpeople think because that is one of the joys of it being yours! I  think if people can name their children Apple and Moses you could definitely use anything your heart desires, but if you want an opinion I think Harvey is adorable, and Sowle might have problems with people spelling and pronouncing it wrong constantly.

Answer 15

Nope!

Answer 16

Howard, Percey, and Harvey are great middle names.  I've never heard of Sowle, but I kind of like it.  It makes me thing of 'soul'.
