Is this name too american....

Hi ladies, im 24 weeks and having a boy. Havent really thought about names but the two names that have entered my mind are Freddy and Junior. This is my first child and he will be taking the surname Fincham. IS Junior too American? Do u prefer Freddy?

Not american enough

if anything i would name the child Junior not freddy...

Freddie

I think is lovely. Junior would be very cute for a baby, but as an adult I think it would be a really bad name to have to live with, I will be perfectly blunt here (sorry) but I think you have to think long term. When your son is in his twenties and trying to start out on his chosen career path I think with a name like Junior he will struggle to get people to take him seriously. I also think one day he will be 80 years old and maybe Junior isn't very fitting then.

Freddie Fincham sounds great though, it has style to it as well and well as making your little un to be sound like a real cheeky chap

Freddie

freddie is an lovely name xx

Hiya

i like freddy but spelt freddie my bro was gunna name is baby (4weeks)
freddie i think its really trendy

Well,

I have to say my associations of Junior are either as a pet nickname for the bump whilst a woman is pregnant, Peter and Jordan and Americans. I think Freddy (also v. nice spelt Freddie) is a much nicer name and sounds very cool with the surname!

But that is only my personal opinion and the name Junior may well be becoming more popular now - i don't know.

Best of luck on the rest of your prenancy
