Reuben?

[name_u]Honest[/name_u] thoughts on the name Reuben??

And yes I know there is the minecraft pig called [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] but it was a long established name before popular culture. Lol

I like it but I prefer the [name_m]Ruben[/name_m] spelling.

I love [name_m]Reuben[/name_m]! It’s handsome and gentlemanly but still fun and sweet! I also love the nickname [name_u]Rue[/name_u]!

And btw I don’t think anyone will think of the pig besides like ten-year-olds, because I didn’t know about it. [name_f]My[/name_f] first association would be the sandwich, but that’s only really an American thing I think!

Don’t know anything about Minecraft so won’t let that deter me.

I think it’s a great name with a fantastic meaning. I would use it in a heartbeat

[name_m]Reuben[/name_m] is soft and sweet! I’m a big Minecraft fan but would have never thought of the pig

One of my all time favorites. I don’t know anything about minecraft but I highly doubt that would ever be an issue. I adore everything about the name and the potential for the nickname [name_u]Rue[/name_u]!

[name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_m]Reuben[/name_m]! I honestly didn’t even think of the Minecraft character. I do prefer Rubeus tho!

[name_f]My[/name_f] 17 month old is [name_m]Reuben[/name_m]. So obviously I love it!

[name_m]Reuben[/name_m] is slowly growing on me! Like @rio0222 I do prefer the simpler [name_m]Ruben[/name_m] spelling, but there is something so warm and bright about [name_m]Reuben[/name_m]! While I likely wouldn’t choose it myself, I love it for others (and absolutely adore Rue/Ru, though my pick for the nickname would be Rudy).

I named a character [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] and he is an absolute sweetie so I obviously really like the name. I’ve always seen it more as a little-kid name (the character is a toddler) but it also works for an older kid or an adult.

[name_f]Adore[/name_f] [name_m]Reuben[/name_m]! He’s on my short list. I do sort of think of the sandwich, but my mother loves them, so, ah. There’s that. :rofl: I mainly think of the Biblical [name_m]Reuben[/name_m], though, and just the fact that it’s a super cool name! I’d love to meet–or even more, HAVE–a [name_m]Reuben[/name_m]! :heart:

I know next to nothing about Minecraft so I had no idea there was a [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] in it. lol.

I adore [name_m]Reuben[/name_m] but it’s so close to our last name so I doubt I will ever be able to use it! I love that it’s board popular now !!

It’s so handsome and rich in history !

Its very handsome! Also it’s very Jewish so I’m usually surprised to see someone not Jewish named Reuben

? It’s a popular name choice in the Jewish community but there are many Hebrew names people have used and who are not Jewish, myself included. [name_f]My[/name_f] eldest is called [name_m]Zachary[/name_m]. Another fantastic Hebrew name.
Some other Hebrew names on here and in general which are quite popular are [name_u]Noah[/name_u], [name_u]Elijah[/name_u] etc

[name_u]Love[/name_u] it so much! :orange_heart:

Yes I know, just my personal cultural perspective!
