Baby Names

Thoughts on the name Tate??

We have a few girls names but have had a really hard time with boys. I mentioned this to DH and he actually really likes it. Thoughts? Would be Tate Michael (mn after DH) Big brother is Noah.
TIA

  • I'm not a huge fan of Tate... it reminds me of taint... not a good association!

  • Sorry, I really dislike the name. I just don't like it. It also reminds me of taint....I love Noah though! Other ideas:

    Asher, Caleb, Micah, Connor, Wyatt, Luca, Ethan

  • I like it. I love the movie "Little man Tate", which is what I think of. That, and tater tots. I didn't think Taint at all...

  • My cousin chose this name for his son but spelled it Taite.  It definitely reminds me of taint though!

    My cousin is named Tate and I've never known anyone else with this name. I'm not really a fan, but it's alright. He was called tater tot when he was young.
  • I liked it before I heard someone say "it sounds like Taint". Now I can't get that out of my head.

  • The teasing potential with it's closeness to taint is just too much IMO.

  • OMG there are girls with this name???  I hate masculine names turned feminine but this crosses the line!!

    Anyway I hate it for a boy too, but much better than for a girl.
