Comments for TREVOR:

Trevor is the name of Neville Longbottom's toad in Harry Potter. Before I always connected it to a scene from the 80's TV show The Young Ones, but now it has double "comedy" value.

I think the name Trevor is the coolest name ever. It is an awesome name. I also know a Trevor who is one of my best friends and he is an awesome person!

I don't like this name, sounds like a real creepy bloke's name, someone who hides in dark alleys at night. No, nothing nice about it, a bit too "serial killer" for me!

Downmarket, trashy, low-class name. I would expect a Trevor to be sporting a rather large beer gut and mullet. The nickname Trev is positively awful.

Trevor is a common name in Welsh, but the origin of the name actually may be Cornish.

I have encounted a feminine use of the name; in Champaign, Illinois, one of my colleagues had a stepdaughter named Trevor.

Trevor is my nine-year-old nephew's name and I rather like it. I wonder if the people who have posted negative comments happen to be British, as I have heard that in Britain Trevor is seen as a typical working-class name. Here on the other side of the pond, by virtue of the fact that it is seen as quintessentially British, it has a much better image.

It's your typical farmer and cow cocky name along with Bruce.

Trevor is a not-so major character in Christopher Paolini's book, Eragon. Brom and Eragon come across him in the city of Daret.

WOW! What narrow minded comments from those of you who think of Trevor as a "hick" or "serial killer". Man get your head out of your hole.
-- waterbaby  9/21/2008
Yes, "hick" in some places. So much so, it's comically hick along the lines of Cletus and Billy Bob in the US.

Trevor is a hot name, I'd want a boyfriend named Trevor.

I named my son this in November of 1998. It is a great name! It is simple, yet sophisticated. No one teases him for it. (And he is in middle-school. Prime age for teasing!) He likes it. It is a strong male name. I believe all males should be given a strong male name. It is a lot more common in the wealthy city I live in now, then it was when I lived in a blue-collared town. (Only females can get away with the role-reversal!)

Also, after reading the other comments, I am completely surprised! Trevor is not at all "red-neck", "hill-billy" or anything of that nature. Here, in a large metropolitan US city of millions; it is seen as upper-class. As previously stated, it is much more popular in the wealthy city I live in than it was elsewhere. When I say wealthy, I mean Lakeshore Drive, multi-million dollar, old-money kind of wealthy. No McMansions here.
