 What do you guys think of the name Ross?

Eh, I associate it with "Friends" too much to use it, though I think it's kind of cute.

I was gonna say the exact same thing. It's quite masculine though, which is a plus for a boy's name =)

boring.

I have a friend named Christopher Ross who goes by Ross. It's nice, I like it.

I don't like it at all. The "Friends" connection puts it even further down on my list.

Plus, I have a friend named Ross, whom everyone calls Ass. So that's probably what I'll always think of when I see it now.

Ross is a name people used to use to tease me (my name is Rosalie, and lot's of people can't pronounce that)... needless to say, I hate it.

It IS masculine, though, which I like, and I think of Friends too, which is a bit strong, but not necessarily bad.

in and of itself it's a nice name.. unfortunately, it will always bring to mind a tall, dark, dopey fellow.. either that or roscoe from dukes of hazaard (that could just be me, tho)..

I like it!

But I also really like Chandler, but it's not even a Friends thing!

eh idk. Every guy i know named Ross is gay. So i think of it as a kinda feminine sounding guys name probably for that reason only.

[kristinluffsyou.livejournal.com]

NOT saying i have anything against gay people. I'm just saying when i think ross i think feminine for some reason.

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

maybe it's because it could also be short for Rossella :)

[kristinluffsyou.livejournal.com]

That would make sense.

[th3-unicorn.livejournal.com]

I love it! I guess it's because I love "Friends" so much. It is also what I used to call a very close male friend of mine, named Rosario. Yeah, in Italy it's only a male name, and Rosaria is female.

I love it because it's my little brother's name, and I am very, very close to him. If it weren't my little brother's name, I actually don't know if I'd like it. I plan on using it as a middle name someday, I just don't know for what!

[omfg----hxc.livejournal.com]

It's my little brother's name too and we're really close.
And those are my exact thoughts. That's why I posted this. I wanted to see what other people thought.
I always kinda didn't like when I was little because it was so different.
But I was thinking about it today and I've always wanted to incorporate it into my son's name. I really like it but idk if it's cuz it's my brother's name.

Sry that might be confusing...Lots of thoughts just thrown together.
Haha we're like the same person.

i'm a total Frienatic, so i love it by default. :D but because of Friends, it makes me think of a nerd.

I personally like it and think it's an adorable name.
