Howard...

Howie for short? I remember loving this name as a little girl, I don't know why. I associate it with the early 80s and it makes me happy. What do we think?

I think it is really cute and not used much.

I think of Howie Mandell. I did love Bobby's World as a child though...

I like it as a MN, but it's a family name for me so I am a little biased

It is my 18 month old nephews name. It is a family name so I understand why my brother used it, but it's NMS. But we only call him Howie

This underused classic gets a from me!

Howard is ok, Howie is NMS, maybe Ward or something along those lines for a NN.  On the bright side, it's a classic name, people know how to spell and pronounce it and he wouldn't have a million of other kids in his school w/ the same name.

Ditto this.  I was also going to suggest Ward as a NN.
