What’re your thoughts on the name [name_m]Beck[/name_m]? (For a boy)
Please don’t suggest [name_m]Beckham[/name_m] or [name_m]Beckett[/name_m]. [name_m]Just[/name_m] [name_m]Beck[/name_m].
Does it sound short & sweet or trendy & trying too hard?
Is it going to be a name that in the future people say “oh that was a 2020s name” or could it be classic?
I know too many people with it as their last name and while I’m sometimes a fan of surnames as first names, I’m afraid this one is a no-go for me.
Short and sweet! Great name.
It takes me back to the 90’s because of the musician….
As a name it feels incomplete. Like I assume it has a longer form even though you say not to suggest the longer forms.
I prefer [name_m]Beckham[/name_m] nickname [name_m]Beck[/name_m] 
to me it’s completely feminine and a nickname for [name_f]Rebecca[/name_f]
I like Beck!! It has a surname-y feel, sharp and cool, but it’s got a gentleness about it too, a nod to nature with nice imagery.
I love it both as a nn and a standalone name. it’s cool, breezy, charming, could go sporty or artsy. Not sure if I could define it as classic, I don’t know how far back use of the name goes besides as a surname. Also not sure if it will be considered dated, but I don’t see the name ever becoming super popular so it wouldn’t be dated in a “basic” way like [name_m]Jayden[/name_m] or [name_m]Jackson[/name_m].
I like [name_m]Beck[/name_m], just [name_m]Beck[/name_m], a lot! I see it as a “cool guy” name but the nature tie brings a sort of gentleness to it.
I love [name_m]Beck[/name_m] on its own!! It feels really cool, but at the same time cozy and a little gentle. I definitely don’t think it needs a full name, and I don’t think of it as trendy at all tbh! On-trend, yes, because short names & nickname names are trendy at the moment, but not trendy in the sense that it’ll feel dated in the future!
I like [name_m]Beck[/name_m]. I think it’s perfectly fine as a stand-alone name.
[name_f]Do[/name_f] I think it’ll ever be a “classic”? No. But few are, really. And they’re already established.
[name_f]Do[/name_f] I think it’ll scream 2020s? It’s hard to say. I’m not sure [name_m]Beck[/name_m] alone will ever shoot up the charts like [name_f]Brooklyn[/name_f] or [name_f]Harper[/name_f] or [name_f]Everly[/name_f] (I don’t know why only girl names came to mind there), but it does share its sound with two other trending names of the moment (Beckett and Beckham), so it may.
I love it. I had it on my list for my son. I like names are crisp and to the point [name_m]Beck[/name_m], [name_m]Kit[/name_m], [name_m]Fox[/name_m] … I don’t think it is popular enough to tie it to any one time.
I prefer [name_f]Bex[/name_f] to [name_m]Beck[/name_m]. It sounds more complete with the s sound at the end. But either way, it sounds more nicknamey than full name to my ears.
[name_m]Beck[/name_m] is gorgeous!
I love [name_m]Beck[/name_m] such a sweet, outdoorsy, romantic name that feels literacy inspired whilst being rugged. I think the name is the definition of short and sweet with a classic vibe rather than feeling too attached to a particular era.
There is an absolutely lovely berry @EdgeOfTheMeadow who used this name so I do always think of her when I think of [name_m]Beck[/name_m].
Thank you [name_f]Tori[/name_f] 
[name_f]My[/name_f] [name_m]Beck[/name_m] is about to be 21 
Time has flown.
[name_f]Love[/name_f] Beck!!!
[name_m]Beck[/name_m] is a great name! I don’t think it’ll ever be in the classic territory, but I don’t see it being too tied to this era. Maybe a little, but not as much as [name_f]Amanda[/name_f] is tied to the 80s, for example. I think the musician helps with it not being too tied to the 2020s too!
I do like Beck in general but as a standalone it reminds me of this cringy annoying rockstar who thought too highly of himself in a movie I’d seen years and years ago… I don’t even remember which film.
I’m not sure why, but as a nickname… I love him in all his charm, but as just Beck… I think of that character? I couldn’t tell you why lol. But I do love the idea of him! My sister has a very similar name so I’ve often considered Beckett or Breccan in her honor.
But when I don’t think of the character, Beck feels preppy and sporty and affectionate and kind and cool. I do like him. I just… would use Breccan myself. I’m a big Breccan fan. (But never fear, I won’t recommend him… maybe just focus on the bolded bit and ignore my eccentricities lol.)
Good luck!
I LOVE [name_m]Beck[/name_m]! He’s the effortlessly cool kid. Sophisticated, preppy, southern, sweet, rugged- it’s like the most versatile name ever
I love [name_m]Beck[/name_m], but almost exclusively as a nick name for a longer name. I like that it is short and snappy, and kind of unisex. [name_m]Beck[/name_m] could be [name_f]Rebecca[/name_f] or [name_m]Beckett[/name_m]. It seems modern and playful. I do think it can work as a full name, if you are sure you don’t want a longer name for the birth certificate, but it will always feel like a nickname to me. It would be like meeting someone whose full name is [name_f]Deb[/name_f] or [name_m]Joey[/name_m].
