Prescott

What do you all think of the name [name_m]Prescott[/name_m] for a boy? Possible nicknames Pres, Cotty, or [name_u]Scotty[/name_u]. Would love to hear what kind of image the name conjures and whether you like it or not.

Thanks in advance for your wisdom!!

It feels a bit stuffy to me, but I think it’s usable.

I think it’s very cute and different! [name_u]Scotty[/name_u] is super cute :slight_smile:

Quite posh sounding. I can’t help but think of a institution of some kind like [name_m]Prescott[/name_m] College or [name_m]Prescott[/name_m] Hospital.

Keating from your signature caught my eye. It has a lot of character and is soft and strong at the same time - imagining the nn [name_u]Keats[/name_u] too. Swoon!

Immediate association is ex British politician [name_m]John[/name_m] [name_m]Prescott[/name_m]. I suppose it depends on your political views as to whether that’s a good thing.

I love [name_m]Scott[/name_m], but [name_m]Prescott[/name_m] feels stereotypically preppy frat boy.
