    I have a friend with a little boy called Frank and he is a cutie - I wasn't sure at first but it really grew on me. I say go for it.

    I think if you like it you should definitely go for it!

    I do like Francis/Frances for a boy... it reminds me of the eldest son on Malcolm in the middle

    Just remember a baby isnt a baby forever, so you need to choose a name that will suit them throughout their lives

    I am a teacher and I have seen many many names- one year I tought 2 Franks in the same class, one was Frank and the other we called Frankie- they were both just the MOST adorable little boys, so for me, it doesnt sound like an old name, it just makes me think of these 2 boys.

    I don't mind it but I would call him Franklin (not keen on the other suggestions) with Frank as a nickname.

    I'm not so keen on Frank.... Wasn't that the character in that English show "Some mothers do have em'?

    But hey! You are the one that has to say it possibly a 100,000 times in your life, so if you love it - go for it!!

    I have an Uncle Frank (his name is actually Francis but her prefers Frank) ... i'm personally not a fan of the name Frank but some the other members suggestions sound like a great alternative
