I kind of like it for a girl, but I wouldn't use it.

While I like some place names....Chandler is not one that I'd use. Granted, most people wouldn't look at it as a place name, but either way I personally don't care for it.

lol! I literally just finished watching the Friends episode where Phoebe gives birth to the triplets and they have already picked out the name Chandler for one of the boys and it ends up being a girl!!

I think I probably like it better for a girl but I'm not a huge fan either way. I hear it and can't help but think of Friends.

It will remind people of Friends, but I don't think it's a bad name. I babysat a boy named Chandler and you get over the Friends thing.

No way after Friends.

The character makes me love it, but there would be obvious problems with the popularity of the show...
In the episode I watched today he referred to himself as 'Chandie' if you were looking for a nickname lol.

very close to the top of my list of most hated names ever. sorry.

plus all i think of when i see it is "chanandler bong" from that one episode where they answer trivia factoid things about each other to see who gets to keep the good apartment.

Friends is all I think, and I didn't even really get into the show all that much. It's really hard to think of it objectively! I -think- I don't like it much. But I'd probably just as much get used to it on someone else if I met them

It's one of those names that I will never understand how people can like it. At all. First, it's totally associated with Friends. Second, it's an ugly, ugly name.

I really, really like it! I considered naming my son that, but it didn't flow with the last name too well. = )

I'm not a fan of occupation names in general. Hunter, Fletcher, Carter, etc. Not that many people care that a chandler was someone who made candles (or outfitted ships, depending on when and where you were), but I don't like it.

I used to love the name but I guess that was a while ago. It's still a cute name though.
