  One of my favorite tv shows of all time.

  But as a kid's name I just couldn't do it. Nerd or serial killer are my 1st two thoughts, neither of which is a great connotation.

  I love the name, but, due to the associations mentioned above, I'd probably use it for a dog rather than a person. I know a Corgi named Dexter and he's awesome.

  GP name. DH loves it but I'm sure it's only because Dexter is one of our shows. I can't see myself actually using this name mainly because I think it sounds too harsh not because of the tv show/ nerdy associations with it.

  I've never seen the show, but it still brings to mind the show for me. But in a few years, that might not matter. Ostensibly, I like the sound of it. If it's your favorite I wouldn't let the show keep you from using it.

  For me - Dexter is just a no.  I don't immediately think of the show or a nerdy kid.  The name just doesn't appeal to me at all.

  It's my cat's name.

   

  Wouldn't give it to my kid. 

  He melts me...

  i like it! I've read the first book, Dexter but never watched the show. I dont think the ame has bad mojo. I was forced into watching "something borrowed" recently and the main man is named Dexter nn Dex. i found it to be lovely & refreshing!

  We almost used it with DS2. I know a Dexter and he is one of the sweetest guys I know. However I did still go with Dexter the serial killer first when I hear it. My DH went with the nerdy cartoon character.... We decided not to use it because or the baby

  Ewwwwww....This name is so repulsive to me. That kid is going to get made fun of like nobody's business. It's not Indy and its not cool.
