That's what a friend and her fiance are naming their son.  Thoughts?

Not really a fan of Desmond as a name, but one of the best teachers at my high school while I was there was named Desmond. He was an older teacher from Ireland. The name does give me a nice feeling when I hear  it though because I think of him and what an awesome teacher he was.

It's a great solid Irish name.

I love both names, although maybe not together. I was deciding between the two myself as the first name.

I really like it! i knew a Desmond in 2nd grade, and he was an awesome guy.

I really like Desmond, although some of that may have to do with my love for the Lost character.

Like it a lot. I love Desmond but it sounds awkward with our last name.

I knew a Desmond that was a girl. Her nickname was Desi. I think she really fit her name. I do like Desmond as a name in general. I love William as a mn too.

DS is Desmond, so obviously I'm partial to the name.
