Thoughts on Monroe?

What are your thoughts on [name_u]Monroe[/name_u] for a boy? Looking for a boy name that is unusual but doesn’t seem too out there… Any and all feedback would be appreciated! Also any nickname insight would be helpful too!

I prefer it for a girl but it works on a boy too! Maybe MocCoy, [name_m]Molloy[/name_m], or [name_m]Myron[/name_m]?

Also [name_m]Matan[/name_m]!

I think it works, especially if it has meaning for you.

Love [name_u]Monroe[/name_u] on a boy, though I prefer it as a middle name

I think it’s lovely, but it’s my aunts dog’s name. But I think it could definitely work on a child. [name_f]Ro[/name_f] would be cute

Lovely! I like [name_f]Roe[/name_f] or [name_u]Moe[/name_u] for short.

I like it. Cool and chilled sounding

Personally I’m having trouble seeing it as a first name but I adore it as a middle for a boy.

I like it. Personally I would spell it [name_u]Munro[/name_u] but that’s just my preference. [name_f]Ro[/name_f]/Roe would seem the most natural nickname.

I like it a lot! [name_u]Monroe[/name_u] is one of the few surnames that feels totally unisex to me!

I really like [name_u]Monroe[/name_u] for a boy. I’ve tried to get my husband on board with it a few times but he isn’t a fan.

I really like [name_u]Monroe[/name_u] for a boy. (Although, for me anyway, it does have the Grimm connection because that’s where I first heard it.)

I really like [name_u]Monroe[/name_u]! Roey would be a cute nickname.

I like it! It feels pretty unisex to me. I do think it fits your “unusual but not too out there” criteria. [name_f]Roe[/name_f] or [name_u]Moe[/name_u] would be a natural nn, imo! I also think it would be very cool in the middle.

I like it! NN would be [name_u]Mo[/name_u](e), [name_f]Ro[/name_f](e), [name_m]Monty[/name_m] (maybe a reach?).
