Thoughts on the name Levi?

MLF135

We're considering using the name Levi....what do you think?  We have a very long last name so we wanted to keep it short, but nothing too common.

Sorry, I am not a fan. I only have two thoughts when I see/hear Levi: jeans and evil.

Hate it.

I think of the jeans first.  

Then Levi Johnson...Bristol Palin's ex (and total douche bag).

Make that 3 thoughts.

I think it's alright. I know a little boy named Levi and he's a great kid. It's a classic, masculine, biblical name. So why not?

Same here to both thoughts.

Not a fan of Levi.  I know it's biblical, but I always just think of the jeans.

I actually like it but its way to popular these days. I have had 4 friends name their boys that within the last 3 years.

I really like it a lot, it's a great name. But if you're looking for uncommon...I might keep looking. It seems pretty popular.

I love the name Levi. A lot. DH veto'd it or it would definitely be on my short list.

I like it a lot.  At one time it had been on my list of names too but since then my list has changed. But it's still a great name in my book.

I like the name Levi. Some don't, with the jeans connection. But I like it; I think it's a good solid name.

Not a fan.

It's NMS.  But, that could be that I'm just not cool.  Matthew McConaughey named his son Levi - and Matthew's all kinds of cool!

I like it.  Its a strong name, and especially great for Jewish boys.

I like the name. I don't think you should let one bad apple ruin a good name. Then again, it is a highly recognizable brand name. Just something to keep in mind.

Not a fan. My BFF is due in July & using this name & I know several other baby Levi's, so it's not very uncommon.

NMS but SIL named her son Levi. Seems to be a name coming up in popularity.
