  I actually like it. I'm into virtue names.

  As a middle name, it would be fine.  Don't like it as a first.

  I vote for middle name, too. Otherwise -- this is all I can see:

  

  (Although I do love "Ernest Saves Christmas" -- no shame in my game.)

  I think it's pretty bad, reminds me of those movies, "Ernest goes to.....". I think it would be fine for a mn though. I cant think of any other nns except Ernie.

  It was my grandpa's name and it's my Dad's mn. I kinda like it too.

  As Hannah said it qualifies as a virtue name, just watch or read Oscar Wilde's play The Importance of Being Earnest.

  I actually think I like it. Like a pp mentioned, I think of Oscar Wilde and The Importance of Being Earnest, which is one of my faves.

  I think of Ernest Hemingway. In The Paris Wife, Hadley refers to Ernest as Nesto, which I think is cute but I prefer Ernie.

  I don't like it as a FN but it could be a nice MN.

  I think of Oscar Wilde but even though I love the play, I do not love the name. Not into virtue names though and there are no good NNs for Ernest. I had a friend in HS named Ernie, and although he was sweet, I dislike the name.
