LovieBear

I like old English names... Spencer is old English but do you think at the same time its trendy? Im not really into trendy.

I don't like Spencer, although I don't like many others with the same feel.

Spencer reminds me of Princess Di, and William of Prince William, so I don't like them together.

But Spencer itself, I kinda dig.

I like William.

I like it but it seems kind of nerdy.  I don't know why I like it if it seems nerdy to me but I do .

I do not care for this name.

I think Spencer is ok.  DH really liked it and it was on our list.

LovieBear

I see you picked Anderson- I would totally have gone with that if DH would have agreed! My DH's name is Michael- seems like we like similar names!

I have always loved Spencer.  DH vetoed it right away because it isn't "traditional" enough for him, but I think it's a great name!!

I had a Spencer in my class and even though this name is NMS the kid just made it work. So, yeah, the name grew on me because the kid was so awesome.

Yeah, I can't get past The Hills reference, and I think I only watched about 3 minutes of that show.  I do like William though!

I can only think of Spencer's Gifts.

William, yes. Spencer, NO

It's NMS (I feel like it's a really preppy name) but I have no problem with it!

I love Spencer!  It is my DH's cousin's name and I have always thought it was cool.

I think of Spencer Pratt too but he is really a C-list celebrity whose 5 minutes of fame are just about over so I dont want to negate the name because of him?

I think it's a great name!

For a girl, yes. For a boy, no. <~~For the first name that is.

I have a cousin named Spencer and while I didn't like it at first, it grew on me and I really like it now

lovemytwoboys

Love Spencer!

I don't consider it trendy and love it with William.

queenbone

I like it.  I think of Spencer Tracy, which apparently makes me old since I'm the only one that did.  I think he is a major Hollywood icon as opposed to the reality tv kid.

I think it is a great, underused, normal, MALE name.

If I were a boy I would have been named Spencer.

geezbby09

Spencer is #1 on my list, so of course I love it!


Sounds nice with William too:)

tusshie2004

I like the name Spencer. Just not with William as the MN. Is William an important name to you? What about Spencer Thomas, Spencer James, Spencer Michael? 

Fancy3Face

No.  I don't like Spencer.  I associate it with a really strange (REALLY strange) kid growing up.  

Cranang

I REALLY wouldn't worry about the "Spencer from The HIlls" reference.  That guy has already off the radar.  Give it a few more years and no one will remember him.  I actually watched that ridiculous show and I didn't even associate the name with him.

I love that name...it does have a nerdy coolness to it.  Good choice!

kthappy76

Not a huge fan (though I like English names), seems kind of dated trendy to me (like Ashley/Courtney, etc.), but maybe that's b/c I have a cousin w/this name.  Love William.

GeneGoddess

The first person I think of is a former professor of mine.  His first name was Spencer (we called that as opposed to Dr. X) and he was a STITCH.  His theory about breeding tendencies of redheaded humans (he was a population geneticist) was just hysterical!  I like them name, but only because of my association with a funny guy.

emilyray14

I really like the name Spencer (nn Spence)!

 I think of Spencer Reed from Criminal Minds and I love his character! So this would be a good connection!

 

AthensMom2B

It is at the very top of my list. If this lo is a boy, he will definitely be a Spencer. Love it!
