I love [name_u]Forest[/name_u] (with this spelling)! It’s a nice sounding nature name with great imagery.

I like it. Fresh and naturey without being trendy like [name_u]River[/name_u] is right now

I prefer the [name_m]Forrest[/name_m] spelling and I do think its usable (I would only use it as a middle personally but its definitely useable as a first). The link to [name_m]Forrest[/name_m] Gump is quite strong for me but that’s not a negative!

I like [name_u]Forest[/name_u]. [name_m]Forrest[/name_m] with the extra r is OK, but I never understood why the extra letter.

I like it. Might be annoying for people to be saying “run forest run” though lol

[name_u]Love[/name_u] love love both [name_u]Forest[/name_u] and [name_m]Forrest[/name_m]! I slightly prefer [name_u]Forest[/name_u] because of how gentle and naturey he feels, but I love [name_m]Forrest[/name_m] for it’s classic and strong energy.

I love Forrest!! It was actually one of my top names but DH vetoed it because of [name_u]Forest[/name_u] Gump. :cry: I like the extra R in the spelling, it just looks like more of a name to me.

I love the name! I prefer the spelling [name_m]Forrest[/name_m], but both are lovely. I have multiple positive associations with the name and I love nature/word names, so nothing but good vibes for me here. :blush:
