At work yesterday I met a little girl named Burgundy and a little boy named Burk...hmmm. (They weren't together.)

I really like Burgundy. I prefer Burke to be with an e but I think I'd only use it as a MN anyway

Am I going crazy, or was there more to this post before? =S

I mentioned that Burgundy was a brat and Burk was adorable but I didn't want that to influence anyone's opinion on the names. :)

I like Burk, but with an E (Burke). I like last names as first names for boys, so it works.

But Burgundy? Definitely not a fan of it.

I know a girl named Burgundy!

Burgundy is okay.
And I love Burke.
Did he actually spell it Burk? that's so odd!

AH, no way. I got an email a while ago from a friend saying a girl who went to high school with us had a baby. Which, on its own, wow, but she named the kid Burgundy Quinn. It sounds like a stripper's name to me. (Sorry to anyone who likes it.)

Burk's fine.

Just out of curiousity, how old are you?

[dancing-crazy.livejournal.com]

I'm 19, and the girl who had the baby is 18.

I've known two Burkes. One was a guy who I went to high school with. He was really cute back then. Ended up moving to Hollywood to become a big star. To my knowledge hough the closest he got was a Big Red gum commercial. Still it was cool to see him on that every time it came one. Oh, I take that back. I had to google him and found he's done more. Cool (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0730902/). Random, sorry.

The other Burke is my friends 4 year old son.

Burgandy doesn't do much for me, though it could be a lot worse. I don't tend to like B names in general.

All I can think of when I hear/see the name Burgundy is Ron Burgundy, from the movie Anchorman... needless to say, it leaves a sour taste in my mouth=)

In Britain at least, "berk" (pronounced the same as Burk) is slang for an idiot, heh. It's not that commonly used anymore, but I still would not name a child it, for that reason.

I, too, thought of berk. Burgundy is okay... for a wine. Otherwise I find it trashy, along the same lines of Satin, Brandy, etc.
