I was playing around with Roads/Road as a name, and I come up with Roadie. I looked it online and I dont particularly mind the band association. What are your thoughts? Is it too weird to be used?

Iām not keen sounds like a dogs name. I would prefer just Roads as a middle name. Something like Phoebe Roads would be cute
I think itās cool as a nickname, but I donāt love it as a full name. I also much prefer it on a boy.
in addition to the band association, Roadie is also a frequent term for a beer/alcoholic beverage taken in the car for a trip. She probably wonāt hear that until college, though (if itās even a popular term by then).
I love the name Rhodes. I think that nn would be cute for when sheās little, but she might outgrow it (i.e. Meg vs. Meggie)
To me it just sounds a bit odd, sorry. If I came across Roadie IRL I would probably assume that itās a nickname.
I have to admit, Roadie isnāt really a positive term where I live? Itās still associated with bands, but itās more along the lines of a groupie, I guess?
Rhodes would be really cool though!
I find it a little odd to be honest. It sounds like someone who tags along and Iām not sure thatās quite what you want from your name
Brodie, Bridie or Jolie might be similar choices
I donāt think itās usable as a name.
Itās honestly not my favorite. I associate it with band fandoms or long, boring road trips, to be honest. When I say it out loud though, it makes me think of Rhodey (War Machine) from the Marvel movies. Heās a dude but I think that spelling is a little better.
I also think Rhodes is super cool!
Itās not my style, but I donāt think itās awful. Some other names that come to mind are: Remington āRemiā, Romi, Bohdi, Sailor, Riley, or Romilly?
Hope this helps!
Rhodie is an actual name. Itās a Greek/Latin name, a variant of Rhoda and it means āroseā/āfrom Rhodesā.
I agree that Rhodes or even Roads is super cool, but i think that Roadie has some negative connotations. I thought it meant something else no one has mentioned but itās def too inappropriate to say and maybe iām wrong lol
Honestly, I donāt think itās great as a given name. All I think of is the quite negative image of those people who tag along with a touring band (like that movie that Susan Sarandon and Goldie Hawn are in where they sleep with all the musicians! Entertaining movie, but not what Iād want to be named after).
BUT I do really love the name Rhodes, and can definitely see Rhodie/Roadie used as a nickname no problem.
Like @CecilyG said my first thought is a slang term for a sex act so I would definitely advise against.
Iām not a fan of Roadie. What about [name_f]Rhodia[/name_f] instead?
