What do you think of

the name Brock?  Is there anything that comes to mind when you say it?

Re: What do you think of

  • It strikes me as a cheesy soap star name.

    Ha. Yeah.

    It's actually kind of harsh sounding, IMO. Like Shrek. 

  • Brock Lesner, WWF champ and MMA fighter...

  • Sorry, but I have always thought it was an ugly name.  And it sounds like the name of a dumb, meathead jock to me.

  • Well, it goes great with our last name and we both like it.  I was just worried someone was going to say it reminded them of Barack, and we didn't want people thinking we named our son (if we have a boy) after our dumb, meathead president.
  • I agree with the soap opera thing, and also that it's a harsh sounding name.
  • I think of similar names like Bryce and Brady. I do think of Barack, now that you mention it.

    I also think of it as a last name b/c I know people with that last name.

  • I think "Quest for Fire" and "Clan of the Cave Bear"
  • I think of the show "Reba" but I like the name.

  • I really like it and probably would even consider it myself except that I knew someone with that name as a teenager, and I don't like having name associations.
  • It's my nephew's middle name and I really like it.

    ETA: However it is spelled Brokk

  • Did you ever see "She's All That"? I think of that guy...
  • I love the name. My DH MN is Brock. If we have a boy he will be named after DH and go by Brock.

  • Chicken broth.

    I knew a couple Brocks and they were cocky, preppy athletes. 

  • Ugh. Makes me think of Brock Landers (porn star) from the movie Boogie Nights.

     After this statement, I think the doucebag sounding name would be perfect for you!  Just be sure he wears LOTS of Ed Hardy, drives a crotchrocket and calls other guys "bro".

    I have just as much right to dislike our president and his decisions/views as others have to like (i.e. worship) him...

    No need to get snooty and start saying the name we have picked out for a boy is "doucebag." BTW, learn how to spell... it's actually spelled "douche bag."

    From the sounds of it, I'm not the only one who likes this name...

    Thanks, Teacher...but the word is spelled just fine.

    And I don't worship him..but he's FAR from dumb.  And he's your President, so get over it. 

    Brock sounds like broccoli, Brach's candy and YES *gasp* Barack.  And it reeks of toolery.  Like I said, you better stock up on those pink shirts and get those collars popped and ironed up tight!   

    I'll introduce you to the mommy in town that named her son Kutter.  I'm sure you'd get along.

    Yes, he's the president. Big deal. I dislike him, but I suck it up because I know we're unfortunately stuck with him for at least another 3 years. We just don't want people to think we named our kid after him. Get off your high horse and stop preaching me.

    Seeing how snarky your posts have been (and really, with unsolicited information), I'm thinking there must be something going on in your life that's bothering you. Hope you get that figured out and GL TTC.

    I never saw the movie, so I don't have that association with the name. Thanks all for your input!

     LOL, give me an effing break. I love that all of a sudden you're not supposed to talk bad about the president. I didn't vote for him. I'll be sure to show him the same respect I'm sure you showed MY president. But with a little more class, I'm sure...

  • Can't really pinpoint it, but this name just never sat right with me.  I'm sure that's really helpful! :)
