I really like it, but there are so many cultural references, like the Chipmunk and now Simon Cowell from "American Idol." :b But it's still very 'British' to me, and I think it would age well. :) The combo I like best of the ones listed is Simon West. It's the only one that flows nicely, imo.

I really adore Simon and am seriously considering it for one of my future sons! I never liked it either because of "Simon Says" but then I a character in a book I read was so nice, young, brave, and just sounded like someone I'd want to know that I started to like the name and to envision it on a little boy. Then I found out that there was a very prominent Simon on my family tree and I seriously started to consider using it! :)

Simon John is nice and so is Simon West, but Clinton doesn't sound right.

---

Some Simon combos I'm loving now:
Simon Andrew
Simon Douglas
Simon Henry
Simon Michael

---

Also what about:
Simon Westley / Wesley
Simon Domininc
Simon James
Simon Patrick
Simon Daniel
Simon Oliver
Simon Alexander

---

WDYTO these? :)

I really like it! There is a slight "Simon Says" association, but not A "7th Heaven" one at all, as I never watched that show.

---

I like Simon John best.

Simon is a great, underused name! My dad is Simon Christopher. Other mns could be Mark, Daniel, Matthew, Paul....

The truth is, I have met the right person, only he's not in love with me, and until I stop loving him no-one else stands a chance

Simon is uber-cute! If I had two sons, I like the idea of naming them Henry and Simon. I can't say enough ncie things about Simon. You have a winner in the name. :)

---

My vote goes to Simon John. Simon Clinton doesn't flow very well, but what about using Simon Clint?

I love this name! It has moved up to number 2 on my list. My favorite combo for it is Simon Robert although when it was number five it was Simon John, so i'd go with that!

---

Proud Auntie to: Robert Joseph and Brady Lovander, Juliana Mae and Sophia Lee, Graham Joseph, and soon to be one more!

I love Simon. I'm not a huge fan of John, but they sound good together. Same goes for West. I get stuck on the flow of Simon Clinton, too, and don't think that's the best option.

---

Names I like with Simon include:

---

Simon Peter (though it's, ah, pretty Biblical)
Simon Lawrence
Simon Howard
Simon Christopher
Simon Abraham
Simon Daniel
Simon Wallace

---

I like it very much!

---

Simon John is wonderful.

---

Simon West bugs me, but it's a family name so I can deal with it.

---

Simon Clinton REALLY doesn't flow at all.

Simon is on my favorites list, too. I like it very much, and I don't readily think of other things like that.

---

I have a hard time with combos, too, but of your list I like Simon Clinton the best. I think Simon is one of those names that needs a fuller mn to ground it. It almost seems like an adjective to John or West. The ones that I usually pair with it are Michael (after my future DH) and Philip.

"There is within me (and sadly I have watched it in others) a knot of cruelty borne by the stream of love, much as our blood sometimes bears the seed of our destruction."

oooh, how about John Simon

---

Do a double first name with it, that combo sounds very cool to me.

---

I like the name Simon on it's own, too. I think it's a very good solid name, I don't associate it with any of the ones you mentioned, not even Simon Cowell (of American Idol) came to mind until I really thought about it.

---

Good name!
