I named my dog [name_u]Percy[/name_u]. It’s a lovely little name, but not a name I would give a son.

I love [name_u]Percy[/name_u]! I think it is classy and vintage and mature. I would love to meet a little [name_u]Percy[/name_u]. I also really like [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u], it has a strong, masculine appeal to it. I like [name_m]Winston[/name_m], but I’m not sure if it is quite ready to come back yet. I wanted to name my dog [name_m]Winston[/name_m]. [name_m]Winston[/name_m] has mature, wise feel to it, but at the same time it has a playfulness. I’d be super excited to meet a [name_u]Percy[/name_u], [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u], or [name_m]Winston[/name_m].

[name_u]Percy[/name_u] isn’t for me, but I really like [name_m]Amos[/name_m], [name_m]Rudyard[/name_m] and [name_u]Ripley[/name_u]. I would love to meet a [name_m]Winston[/name_m] in real life.

I love [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] and [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]! [name_m]Rudyard[/name_m] is neat too, as a I love classic lit. Would go with [name_u]Rudy[/name_u] myself, though. But that [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] and [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]…seriously adore them!

I love this vintage, “old-man-chic” kind of names!

[name_u]Percy[/name_u]- my laptop is [name_m]Percival[/name_m] nn [name_u]Percy[/name_u], sounds like a dashing romantic hero to me!
[name_m]Winston[/name_m]- quirky, intellectual, well put together
[name_m]Amos[/name_m]- sounds like the phrase “a mouse” to me, so not a fan
[name_m]Gerald[/name_m]- bold and gutsy, and love the Gone With the Wind connection
[name_u]Lawrence[/name_u]- prefer [name_u]Laurence[/name_u], but [name_u]Lawrence[/name_u] is strong and solid
[name_m]Rupert[/name_m]- feels surprisingly fresh and wearable despite its clunky sound
[name_u]Lionel[/name_u]- sounds harsh and violent because of the word lion in it
[name_m]Rudyard[/name_m]- seems like someone who’s brilliant but misunderstood
[name_u]Ripley[/name_u]- I just think of an aquarium in my city called [name_u]Ripley[/name_u]'s, so can’t see it as a name
[name_m]Leopold[/name_m]- royal and regal, [name_f]Queen[/name_f] [name_f]Victoria[/name_f] had a son named [name_m]Leopold[/name_m]

Others of this style I love:
[name_m]Reginald[/name_m]
[name_m]Bertram[/name_m]/[name_m]Bertrand[/name_m]
[name_m]Alfred[/name_m]
[name_m]Bruce[/name_m] and [name_m]Keith[/name_m] (because of The Seekers)
[name_m]Tobias[/name_m]
[name_m]Fitzgerald[/name_m]
[name_m]Kenneth[/name_m] (because of Branagh)
[name_u]Laurence[/name_u] and [name_m]Olivier[/name_m] (because of the actor)
[name_u]Marion[/name_u]
