What genre or style would you throw [name_u]Grady[/name_u] into? [name_u]Or[/name_u] who do picture wearing the name?
To me it initially sounds like an old school name, but with the rise of so many Gray/Grayson names, I’m worried it would look trendy or get lumped together with them?
Also, does it just make you think of gravy? [name_u]Genuine[/name_u] concern. 
[name_u]Or[/name_u] are there any other bad associations with it I might not be aware of?
It still gives me slightly old-fashioned, slightly dated-but-cool, slightly-America vibes.
It doesn’t remind me of gravy
Old-school but hip, 60s 70s, [name_u]Prairie[/name_u] vibes. Really cool, and does not remind me of gravy. : )
It’s giving modern American vibes to me! It does make me think of gravy 
definitely not the worst association or anything like that, but it’s part of why I don’t personally love the name.
I know an almost-2-yr-old Graidy and it’s a sweet name.
100% thought his name was Gravy though after hearing his name for the first time.
[name_u]Grady[/name_u] gives me US vibes. It’s in the same category in my mind as [name_u]Brady[/name_u] and nope, it doesn’t make me think of gravy 
Reminds me of greasy too.
I actually love [name_u]Grady[/name_u]! I never see people talk about it here, but it’s got a very, like…small town [name_f]Americana[/name_f] 80’s vibe to me. Retro and warm.
I went to school with a [name_u]Grady[/name_u] and no one ever called him Gravy. Didn’t even occur to me.
It does feel modern American to me. I dont think of Gravy but it does remind me of
Grating, which isnt the best association but also not the worst.
All in all I think its a good name. I would put it in the same category as [name_u]Hayden[/name_u] & [name_m]Oaks[/name_m]. Feels like it should be trendy but isnt often used.
[name_f]My[/name_f] grandpa’s middle name is [name_u]Grady[/name_u] and every time I’ve heard it I’ve never thought of gravy, but I can see how someone would. It’s very vintage, old-school, and classy.
The only place I’ve heard it is in The Shining…
I associate it with a hospital in [name_f]Atlanta[/name_f] that my parents have stories about working in many years ago but I can see how it might get confused with gravy.
We have neighbors with the surname [name_u]Grady[/name_u]. I associate it more with “rhymes with Brady” rather than “gravy.”
I know of a baby [name_u]Grady[/name_u] born this summer. His siblings are V!viane, R!chard Edg@r IV “Quinn,” and Dav!d [name_u]Henry[/name_u].
