Tate?

Lovealwayswins · March 2017

What are your honest opinions on the name Tate?

would it be better in a middle name slot, or first name?

we like this name because it's a name we haven't heard around our area, and figured it'd be something different. Instead of trendy names we are trying to stay away from.

Taint. All I hear is taint.

@Bringmemylongswordho completely agree.

What was the point in quoting me?

I really like Tate. It's refreshing and strong but not heavy. Cute for a little boy but goes well for a high school and college kid as well and then transitions into the workforce without an issue.

When was that? Kay, haven't been on in awhile. Get over it already. Clearly I was NOT going to delete this, at all. So you did it for no reason. So who got the last laugh?! Oh wait..

Taint. Tater tot. Tatum O'Neil. I not really a fan.

FakeFinn · March 2017

It's NMS. I'd middle name it.

joforyoga · March 2017

Love this name! I came across it a while ago and it's a top contender on our list for boys. I don't see it on a lot of name lists which makes me love it and I'm really getting bored of a lot of the other names that I see on baby name lists. I agree it's a totally normal name but seems fresh and underused go for it!

Not a fan. I slightly prefer Tatum but still NMS.

nurse714 · March 2017

Don't like at all.

joforyoga · March 2017

I'm so surprised at the negative reactions online! Maybe we are the only ones who think it's adorable haha

bbiutmcph · March 2017

Yep all I hear is Taint

lm45678 · March 2017

Ironically I have started this same thread on here before because I really like Tate on a boy.

Same reaction, everyone here said taint which had never occurred to me.

I still really like it though. I have a student named Tate and I don't think he's ever been made fun of for his name.

People always look at ONE bad thing about a name and decide they hate it, oh well that's why I'm glad we don't use the same naming style as everyone else!!

I wasn't a fan of this before because it sounds too preppy frat boyish to me. But now all I will hear is taint

MamaWren919 · March 2017

I'm not a fan. I would have never thought taint. It does sound douchey frat boy to me though.

nanner26 · March 2017

I also picture preppy frat boy. NMS.

JMU_Bride09 · March 2017

Never would have thought of Taint. Honestly, it's nms, but I think of Tate Donovan, the actor, so, for me, that's a good association. I think it would be fine as either a first or middle.

jasmuin · March 2017

I grew up with a Tate. He was never teased because of his name. I like it!

midge519 · March 2017

I like it but all I think of is season 1 of American horror story. With that said I still like it

Gators&BoSox · March 2017

Taint is where my mind immediately goes as well. Tatum isn't as bad

lfblair768 · April 2017

Haha. Well, I like Tate. But my daughter is Tatum, a name I obviously love. I'm sure some people don't like it, but I think it's awesome. When we were choosing her name I saw one commenter say Tatum reminded them of scrotum... But whatever.

I can definitely see Tate as a bit frat boyish, but eh, I don't know that it matters.

Zombie thread and a banned OP.

haha, ok! I'm sorta new to posting on here-- for the future, how am I supposed to tell if it's a dead thread or banned OP?

Its no biggie! Welcome!

Basically if you stay on the first page you should be ok. Or look at the date of the last response to see of its old. OP pic was changed to "banned" but that's less of a big deal.

I think of Golden Tate the football player. Who we nicknamed Golden Taint
