Need honest opinions

[~Lashes~]

im not sure, i dont like it, but i dont hate it, itms?? people will assosiate whatever they feel to his name, no mater what you decide.
if you only think of the movie, maybe sit your dh down to watch it and see his reaction after?
fwiw, we named our 5yo seth, df liked it from the crusty deamons bike rider seth enzlow (sp?) and i was lucky i liked it as a name! i was always asked when he was younger if i liked the oc that much that i would name my child from it... ive never watched that show in my life! so people will always just "assume" what they like.

I thought of Forrest Whitaker, not Forrest Gump until you said it (And I watched it last night lol)

But i like it!

[Miss.September]

I like the name and Whitaker comes to mind first for me. But then Gump... Have you read the book? It's much better than the movie (and completely different)

Me too. First thought Whitaker. I like the name, my first thought was its a really strong name that would carry well as an adult. But I do think that kids will do the whole Forrest Gump thing, kids being kids.

And yep, the two Forrest Gump books are awesome

What about Whitaker for a name? Whit for short

[Khaleesi]

Thanks again ladies, maybe we will have another girl & wont have to worry about it.

Anyone have any opinions on the name Hunter? Maybe i should start a new thread for boy & girl name suggestions.

Tiff i'm not offended it's good to hear different opinions gives me something to think about

Cheshire- I like hunter

I work with a Forrest & he is one of the sweetest, most laid back guys i have ever met. Truly a beautiful old soul!
After the first "oh my, that's an unusual name" it just becomes his name kwim?
I am landing on the Love it side

At first thought I was like wow that is such a great name and followed by thinking about Forrest Gump only for a moment, the in favor of the name Forrest overode anything else !

I hope you use Forrest, I truly like it !!!!!
