I like it, it's a little unusual but has a modern feel.

It always made me think of country boy (maybe that's because there are a lot of those around here) but I work with a Travis now, and he's a decent guy and not country at all. I'm actually starting to like it myself.

It's too country hick sounding to me.

But oddly, my absolutely most favorite boy is very similar in sound - Tavish. To me it has the good things about Travis, but sheds the redneck association that I dislike.

I've known a few - I like "Trevor" better personally.

I really like this name as well. And for a long time it was in my top 5 while I was growing up and loved names.. however now that Im engaged... my fiances last name is travis... so I guess I wont be able to use it but I fully support your use of this great name :)

It's great that you love the name so much if it's going to be your kids' (and your?) last name! You don't even have to use it, they'll all have it already.

I knew a couple of Travis' growing up. One was an absolutely skank and just.... gross... so he's kinda the association I have, because he was my age. Another one about 4 years older than me was super cute and nice, but I didnt know him as well.

W/o the association, it's a name I could like.
