What do you think of the name Axel does boy?
It's growing on me, I think.
The full name we're thinking is Axel Gael (guy-el).

    Nms... and I couldn't do it to a kid. I can't see it looking good on a resume.

    Instantly thought of Axl Rose. Or a tire axle. It's not the worst I've heard, but definitely not my style at all.

    One of the ladies from my last BMB used it and it suits her son very well. It's NMS, but it's also not really a name I'd think twice about these days.

    I have a cousin named that. He's Scandinavian. I like it, though. But I did also think of guns and roses.

    My cousin named one of her sons this and we all love it now. I personally love the name.

    I thought of Axel Foley. Not the most bizarre I've heard.

    I know a ton of dogs named axle so I think that has ruined it for me as far as naming a person that.

    NMS but probably wouldn't side eye it if I met a kiddo with the name.

    But now I have this camp chant stuck in my head: "You can't ride in my little red wagon! The front seat's broken and the axel's draggin'"

    I like the idea of it... But then when I think about meeting a grown man IRL with the name... It sounds kind of strange.

    A friend of mine married a man named Axel and it was weird to me at first but it actually fits him pretty well. It's not a ridiculous name or anything but just not my style. Who knows? Maybe it'll be perfect for your LO.

    I went to high school with a guy with that name...I always thought it fit him. He was a person who stood out and his name worked well with his personality. I say go for whatever you like!

    I know an Axel he's French so with the accent it sounds awesome. I am not a fan of overly unique names, but if you love it use it.
    SIGNATURE FAIL!!!!!!!

    I had a cute little boyfriend named Axel a million years ago. I like the name, it has a good flow.

    It's not my style, but I can see why some see it as different or cool.

    NMS I always think of how the name will look on a resume or if I was going to do business with someone. Like it or not, names have a strong impact on people's perceptions of other people. I would suggest Axel as a middle name.
