Ridge?

Ridge for a boys name? Too odd?

Definitely sounds like you're trying too hard. Is it a family name? Are you looking for suggestions?

I don't even watch soaps, and my first thought is The Bold and the Beautiful. I don't hate the name, but it's definitely got that dramatic vibe.

I have a former coworker who named her son Ridge. I really don't like it.

A boy dog?  If so it's perfect.

Too close to the name of my hometown

Too odd? Yes. Sounds too "trying hard to find a name that sounds cool, uber masculine, and uncommon." Along the lines of: Diesel, Axel, Sterling, Maverick, Blaze, Rocky, Ace...

This for me too. I just do not like it. At all.

Lol this is my cousin's name, my aunt got it from the soap. It's normal to me because I hear it all the time.

Don't care for it

I don't hate it. But my style is really different from most others on this board (I like using city names for my children - gasp!).. If you like the name and you are okay with giving it to your child, then use it.

This...exactly!

I don't like it. It's clunky and just doesn't sound like a name.

This coming from someone who had a "Ridgely" (girl) in my son's daycare at one point.

To me, it sounds more like a nn.

All I think of is The Bold and the Beautiful.
