    not a fan, I just think of NYC. It's just NMS. I do like Brooke, though.

    I get that it is Brook + Lyn but I still can't get past its borough status.

    Sounds kinda trashy to me. I prefer Brooke (and even that is "eh").

    Since you asked for honest opinions, I personally hate the name Brooklyn. 

    Love Elizabeth though Smile

     I was actually going to say that around here where i am from this name would fall into the trailer park or white trash catagories but BizEB has a nicer way of saying it lol. Brooke alone is better but it is still nms. Elizabeth is a beautiful name though :)

    I don't really think Brooklyn is that bad. I like the name Brooke so that would probably end up being her name (nickname) anyway.

    Yuck, no, sorry.

    All sorts of bad connotations, especially stripper...

    Honest opinion? I think it's a horrible name. It's a part of NYC populated by people with bad accents. Brooke is lovely. Brooke Elizabeth is lovely. Brooklyn is horrible.

    I like Brooklyn. I think it is a pretty name. However I am not a fan of Elizabeth as a MN.  I am weird about syllables. I tend to lean towards one syllable MN if the first name has two. For example. My cousin has a little girl named Brooklyn Paige and I like the ?flow?.

    I think it's getting really trendy. I'm down in the south so NYC Brooklyn has no bearing on me.

    Well, I guess we should buy our daughter a Barbie trailer and some clear heels to practice.  Stick out tongue We, obviously like the name quite a bit and associations can be made for most names in any region for any reason.

    We considered it, but ultimately decided it was not our style.  Our other girl names are Emily, Elisabeth and Charlotte, so you can see why Brooklyn didn't fit.

    I still think its a really cute name, and I think if you pair it with Elizabeth it would sound very nice!
