I've fallen in love with the name Langston

Question

Is it a completely terrible name?

I don't know what I like about it so much....

I am actually considering naming my child this but I want to know if it is a bad idea.

Answer 1

It doesn't sound like a good name at all, sorry. It sounds like a place.

Answer 2

It's an awesome name. It's full of character, and would make your kid sound unique without resorting to weird spelling and other gimmicks. It's a very nice name- an excellent name for a man.

Answer 3

Yes it is D:

Its like a name for a river or something. Not a child.

Answer 4

I LOVE the name Langston, probably because of Langston Hughes. In my opinion its a unisex name so if it was a girl, Langston Grace, and if it was a boy, Langston Cayde or Langston Joseph. Good luck!

Answer 5

If you want your child to be bullied then yeah go ahead and name him Langston.

Answer 6

I don't like it... it reminds me of a town in the west. Is it a town in the west? It probably is...

Answer 11

It's Ok.

It's a last name.  

Answer 12

There is no such thing as a 'bad name'. You can name your child whatever name suits him/her.

If this influences your decision, the name Langston means 'long stone'.

If I was you, I would make Langston the middle name, because you don't seem to have enough confidence with the name to make it a first name.  

Answer 13

Get a dog or something and name him Langston. Don't do that to your kid.
