WDYT? I'm trying to settle a debate, and would like opinions. Thanks! =)

I like it a lot, and I hate about 90% of the names that pass through this place.

I'm not fond of it. It sounds very pretentious to me.

I'm not a fan. I just don't like the sound of it.

I actually wouldn't think that I would like it, but saying it out loud, I think I do. I don't think that I would ever use it, but it sounds really smart, and strong, or something.

Someone in this community has a son named Dietrich. I think it's nice.

It reminds me of a creepy math teacher from high school named Mr. Dietrich. So yeah, the name is ruined for me.

When there's trouble, you call DW.

Haha, sorry. Your icon made me happy. :P

It's perhaps a bit too German sounding for me to ever use (unless I married someone from over there or someone with a strong heritage) BUT I really, really like it.

I don't hate it, but I dislike it. It feels very old fashioned to me...Also, German is my native tongue, and I think it sounds kinda weird when pronounced by English speakers.

I don't like Dietrich because it just makes me think of 'dick', and I don't like that 'die' and diet' are in it.

I prefer Fridric, without the k at the end because sound wise, it's redundant, and I prefer it over Friedrich because I don't like 'fried' nor 'rich' which even though I know can make the 'kuh' sound, I know some people are dumb when it comes to reading.

*raises hand*

I liked it enough to use it, even with alliteration with my last name starting with D. so that's saying a lot.

Diet Rich! it's like a new weight loss drink or something!

lol. it's my son's name.

and the "die" is pronounced like "dee" so it doesn't really count.

Thomas, which is my dad's and grampa's name, and my FIL's name. so obviously it had to get used at some point ;)
