Monet - usable as FN?

I saw [name]Monet[/name] on today’s most searched names. I really like it, but I wonder if you berries think it’s usable as FN. WDYT?

I totally believe [name]Monet[/name] could work as a first name. And I think [name]Fleur[/name], [name]Eliza[/name], and [name]Monet[/name] would make a nice sibset:).

I like [name]Monet[/name] and I have seen it used as a first name…but where I’m from, [name]Monet[/name] is considered a “trashy” name. Maybe it’s just cause all the [name]Monet[/name]'s in my area are trashy…but that shouldn’t be a problem for you, assuming we don’t live in the same place! So I’d say yes, it’s usable. :slight_smile:

No… [name]Monet[/name] is a famous artist, and in my opinion it’s a lot to put such a name on a child. It’s like naming someone [name]Shakespeare[/name]. :confused:

Sorry, but in my opinion no & no.
I think #lexikj & #youssarian have covered both ends of why not

I know a lot of people that name their pets [name]Monet[/name], so it wouldn’t work as a name for me. I also agree with lexikj that it gives your kid a lot to live up to.

I just think of the line from Clueless where he says the girl is like a [name]Monet[/name] - looks great from far away and crappy up close, basically. But other than that, I think I’m indifferent to it being used as a name.

No. I just imagine that if my name is monet, then I won’t like it.
