WDYT of the name Van?

lauryn_c · October 2011

Just Van for a first name? I added this name to my list, thoughts ??

mommybrynn · October 2011

I don't like it.

Morrison.

Immediate association. I love Van Morrison... but I'm not sure I love Van as a name. Also makes me think of the shoes.

Only as a nickname.

Wilder.

Even if it wasn't for that stupid movie, I still don't like it. It seems...unfinished.

vehicle

starrkitten89 · October 2011

It's ok.

Wasn't it the name of a character on the Reba sitcom?Or am I losing my mind?

ObLaDi · October 2011

Morrison, Wilder, or something you can live in down by the river.

Van van as a boy's name (also used as girl's name Van), is pronounced van. It is of Danishorigin, and the meaning of Van is "of". Equivalent of "de" in French names. Also a nickname forEvan. Van was sometimes converted from a surname prefix to a given name by early immigrants to America.

I know a lot of Asian American women with the name Van.

This is who I think of.

alohamora · October 2011

Not a fan. Vaughn might be an alternative. Or Donovan, nn Van.

SGC29 · October 2011

Hate it.

ellesmama · October 2011

Honestly, my 1st thought is about the silly guy from the Reba show! haha

Not really a fav of mine though!

Britrichele17 · October 2011

I love it, it's on my boy list too. It's short, masculine and cute.

HAFranklin · October 2011

I really like it. I like short strong names. And it's DS's pediatrician's FN, so I associate it with him, not the dufus from Reba, or Van Wilder. Also I am a HUUUGE Van Morrison fan.
