Any middle name suggestions would be helpful 
I think of the TV show and [name]Michael[/name] C. [name]Hall[/name], and while the show used to be great… he’s a serial killer! Now, I can see the appeal of the name, it’s got that trendy x and it’s masculine and quite dashing. It’s too hard for my taste, and when I look at the names in your signature it seems a little harder and tougher than the others you like (you seem to like soft and romantic names).
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Roscoe[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Julian[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Emory[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Everett[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Leopold[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Solomon[/name]
I absolutely love the name, if I had had a son instead of a daughter I probably would have named him [name]Dexter[/name]. These were some of the combos I had come up with:
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Elliot[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Eric[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Thomas[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Sheldon[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Nathaniel[/name]
I want to like [name]Dexter[/name] but it is pretty trendy in the UK and has recently broke into the top 100. I know of an 11 year old and a 4 year old named [name]Dexter[/name] and it is strong and interesting boy’s name but I think it will become quite annoying hearing it all the time.
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Joseph[/name] is gorgeous, and it’s the one that has been on my list.
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Conrad[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Louis[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Lincoln[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Jude[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Samuel[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Jacob[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Sebastian[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Nathaniel[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Julian[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Elliot[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Barnaby[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Owen[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Benjamin[/name]
I like the way [name]Dexter[/name] sounds. It’s chic geek.
[name]How[/name] about:
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Silas[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Atticus[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Grey[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Miles[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Hugo[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Sebastian[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Warren[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Jude[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Lewis[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]August[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Cole[/name]
I love that name! Great sound and I love the nickname [name]Dex[/name].
I actually think of the tv shows [name]Dexter[/name]'s Laboratory and [name]Dexter[/name] when I hear it. That’s not good or bad though. It’s not something I’d personally use, but I don’t appear to like the vast majority of names with x’s in them. Having said all this, I actually know a 4 year old with the name. I don’t see it as odd in any way.
As far as the name in and of itself goes, I don’t think it’s bad, though. I do really like the nn [name]Dex[/name], too!
MN’s:
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Elias[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Alexander[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] [name]Eugene[/name]
[name]Dexter[/name] Wirth
I like this name, and the nn [name]Dex[/name]. Although I will admit that my first thought when I hear the name is a greasy-haired geek with big thick black glasses. BUT that’s such an outdated thought and I think this name will see a resurgence, if it isn’t already, which will erase that image in the few minds where it still exists. Plus, I wouldn’t think of that if I met a little boy named [name]Dexter[/name] … I don’t think so anyway.
And I like [name]Dexter[/name] [name]James[/name].
I like [name]Dex[/name] much better than [name]Dexter[/name]. [name]Dex[/name] seems more updated and stylish.
Some mn’s that I like would be
[name]Phillip[/name]
[name]Bram[/name]
[name]Ian[/name]
[name]Isaac[/name]
[name]Simon[/name]
[name]Jonah[/name]
[name]Micah[/name]
[name]Quinn[/name]
[name]Otto[/name]
I like it. I would pair it up with something like [name]Rain[/name], [name]Cade[/name], [name]Wolf[/name], [name]Fox[/name], etc.
I’ve met one [name]Dexter[/name] irl, and that association overpowered the geeky stereotype and predated the serial killer link. I think that since it is becoming more popular, perhaps less people will see it as a cultural reference and will just see it as a name.
