A boy in my 2nd grade class told me today the name of his 7 month old boy cousin:



Boston


WDYT?  I've never heard it as a name before but I don't hate it.  It's definately manly.

It just doesn't seem to work as a name for me. Some places work really well as names, and this just doesn't.

I don't know...place names don't usually seem manly to me. I know there are exceptions but I always hear little girls with place names, not guys. Anyhow, I don't really care for it, but it's not terrible.

I'm... okay with it. I think it'd be fine on a girl too, kind of like London.

I knew a kid named Boston Millennium when I was like twelve. Guess when he was born. He was born in New York though... :P

I love the name Boston, I actually know a little baby boy with this name and he is adorable, but Boston is going in a trendy direction, not sure whether you like that or not...

I have a Houston, thats what I named my first =) It would be neat to name this baby with a city too, but it would have to be something more out of the way.. I like carson, but I know a few with the name...

I wonder if they sang him "More Than a Feeling" before bed...

I went to highschool with a boy named Boston. He was a year ahead of me so I'd guess him to be about 24/25 now.

I always kind of liked the name, but I would never use it.
