It's all I could think of. Not really a fan at all.

I can't believe I didn't make that connection as soon as I saw it, lol.

I must admit it if I heard someone shouting it in a park I'd be looking for a dog not a child, but there's nothing really wrong with it...

Or a dinosaur toy in Toy Story...

The dino was T-Rex so they call him Rex for short. I LOVE REX, with his little arms!

Rex is a dog's name. There is also this german tv show about a police dog : "Kommissar Rex".

Not great. Not even really that good.

First and foremost, I think of Rex Harrison. Then, when I say it out loud, I think of wrecks, which isn't so great. I'm not really a fan.

My first thought was of the cartoon Generator Rex. But that's just me.

it reminds me too much of a cat/dog/pet name.

i think it could work as a nickname for a human but not as a legal name.

Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Dog's name.
On a kid... I imagine the kid being a troublemaker, haha. :/

I like it. I'm a sucker for Latin names.

Ohh I was just thinking of this a few weeks ago! I knew an old man named Rex... and while it's not a name for me, I figured other people should like it, it's got that same short cool factor as Max.

mostly that is sounds like a dog's name.

more recently though we picked up this old guy who was disoriented and walking down the main hwy. his name was Willis Rex. We all liked the name.
(he was reunited with his family btw)

I met a little boy named Rex a few weeks ago at the park where I take my niece. I got to talking with his mom and found out his name was actually Alexander but his older brother kept calling him Rex (he couldn't say Alex) and it stuck. At first I thought it was weird, but the more I got to know and see him play, the more I thought the name was perfect for him. After a few hours, I couldn't think of a better name for him. :)
