Ok so I have a friend who loves the name Kimper for a boy. I don't have the heart to tell her it is awuful! Am I wrong for thinking it's awful? It is weird right? What are your thoughts?

    Blech, definitely not a good name.

    I don't think it's your place to come out with your opinion on it. If she asks you, I think a simple "it's not my style, and it's certainly unique" would suffice. She clearly had 9 months to think about it and decided it's the most amazing name ever - it's unlikely your opinion would matter now anyway.

    You aren't wrong to think it is awful, but I wouldn't say anything.

    Kimper is not good, imo.

    ITA.

    Ugh, not a fan at all. All I can think of is kids saying Kimper is a wimper or something like that.

    No, it's horrible. There is zero testosterone in that name. It's something you would name your neutered lapdog.

    That is awful!  But, you have to keep your opinions to yourself on this one.

    Unfortunately I immediately think of "Wimper"...  I agree I wouldn't say anything tho!

    Although I've actually met a guy named Kimper...I am not a fan at all!! However, I don't think you should say anything unless she asks for your opinion then you can but do it nicely :)

    I know someone who has a son named Kemper, which isn't my style, but I can live with that.  Spelling it "Kimper" just drains what little masculinity was there right out of it! Yuk!

    Aren't Kipper Snacks like Sardines? Am I imagining this? When I hear the name Kimper I will automatically think of small salty slimy fish in a can... or a Camper. Neither is a good connotation.
