Keegan?

What do you all think about Keegan for a boy? Good or bad?

I don't like it at all. I can't imagine an adult named Keegan.

Well, actually I can.  That golfer...Keegan Bradley...I just can't take someone seriously with that name.  DH said the same thing and he usually doesn't have an opinion on names.

It's NMS, but I don't think it's a bad name.

NMS at all.  Sounds like a girl's name.  (Plus I dislike all the trendy K names.)

I don't love it but it's DH's favorite boy name.

sorry but it just sounds a little feminine to me...  I dislike any slightly unisex names for boys.  (only Keegan I know is  a girl )

elainej

I don't care for it (or anything that rhymes with it).

westrose

I like it. I think that is different but not crazy.

I don't like it at all.

I like it. It's nothing I would ever use, but I think it's a nice name.

I prefer Keenan. Keegan sounds made up to me.

Don't like it at all, and the 1 Keegan I know is a jerk so it kind of ruins it for me.  sounds very feminine too.

I know a few adult men named Keegan, and one 3 year old boy so it's fine. Oddly nms. But I've never thought of it as girly. One of the Keegan's I know is quite the ladies man, if someone called him girly he'd side eye that!

Keegan/Keagan and all the various spellings is starting to get popular here. 2010 had 47 for boys and only 3 for girls. Which is a lot considering number 25 on the top boys name came in at 129.

Once upon a time, I had a serious crush on Andrew Keegan.  I thought he was a total bad-boy babe and I was into it in a way only a seventh grader can be. 

 

That time has passed and while I take no position on Andrew Keegan today, I can safely say that I thoroughly dislike Keegan as a first name. 

 

It sounds like someone who heavily smokes pot well into an age that makes every other normal functioning person in society uncomfortable.
