I normally find every man named Andrew to be kind, smart, and good-looking. This name is very popular among my age-group, but I love it nonetheless. I do have a very negative familial tie (it's my uncle's middle name; I learned that from my grandmother), but I don't care about that; I'd gladly name a future son Andrew. If you're thinking about using the name Andrew, I definitely recommend it!
That's a good name. And nicknames are lovely.
I love this name for many reasons, but most of all because it's a good, smart sounding & strong name.
I've never known a nasty or rude Andrew.
Interestingly, almost all Andrew's I've known personally have always been very intelligent.
I think I've known @ least 5 Andrew's in my lifetime since my early school days & I'm now 44 years young!
Back then, it was a popular name, but not so much these days.
That's a shame really.
This is my name and I love my name! I think it’s unique!
Let's forget for a moment that a person named Andrew Tate exists. This name is so very much beautiful, I hate the religious background of this name, but the name itself, the way it is written and read, is quite interesting and desirable. Now let's assume we know who Andrew Tate is. It doesn't make Andrew any less amazing as a first name. It is still a beautiful name. Because he is a successful person, everyone is talking about him, both in a positive and negative ways. I don't want to tell you whether he is good or bad, it's ok if you disagree that he's not a good person, but it can be said for sure that he is not the worst role model for young people out there. I didn't say it all to defend him, I'm just saying that if you have considered the name ANDREW as one of the options for naming your son, believe me, there is no need to change your mind and ignore this name just because Andrew Tate is too famous for of an association. Kids in school would always find some way to troll any name regardless. So do what you want to do...
Literally ends in ew!
I got an account to argue with internet strangers about the quality of the name Andrew. Look, I'll say it, I'm biased. But aren't we all? My Dad's name is Andrew and I think it could suit nearly any man. It's like every show you watch has an Andrew/Andy/Drew, and isn't that kinda beautiful? So many impressions on one name! And such a good name! Every Andrew I meet is kind (so far). I've managed to meet a new Andrew like every year of my life and they are all interesting people. I think it's such a cool sounding name! Yet so casual! Any one can know an Andrew. Your uncle Andrew, your cousin Andrew, your Friend Andrew, your teacher Andrew, that one employee at Kmart! It also just sounds like the bearer is popular even though it's common. Now is the best time to take advantage of this amazing name and name your child Andrew! (Unless your last name is Tate).I'm just saying this is a name that nearly anyone can pull off, even girls (Andy/Andrea).
It's sad that there seems to be a decline.
Sounds like someone that is strong and intelligent. When I hear the name I feel like a very skilled/well-rounded person bears this name. It's even better that it's Top G's name.
I love this name! It is my favorite boy's name. Is very handsome sounding.
It's a really nice name but I always think of Andrew Tate when I hear it now ugh.
This is an intelligent and strong name.
Pretty nice name, I don’t hear many kids being named Andrew anymore so I’d think it would be a little unique nowadays. That scum Andrew Tate sort of ruined it for me though unfortunately.
I was considering using a female form of Andrew for a daughter, but now looking at the meaning... I'm not sure. There are some very nice feminine derivatives, but if "masculine" is the meaning, that's an odd thing to have to tell people.
It's a good name. Strong.
Good name. Alright it's a good name for a warrior or a fighter (same thing lmfao).
I like it and the nicknames Andy and Drew too.
A nice, Catholic name with good connotations. Defiantly would recommend it!
Andrew is my crush's name, so I automatically like it. Despite being very common for my generation, I like it a lot. It's a very stable name that's been used for a long time. I don't like to shorten this name, it's too cool for that.
Prince Andrew from the British Royal family is a rapist. This name should be unusable (even more unusable than Donald).
I like it. Handsome, masculine, and the meaning is pretty cool for a boy. The nickname Drew is great. I can’t believe there are people out there who actually named their daughters Andrew. The name is clearly masculine. Even the MEANING is masculine.
My favorite boy's name! So handsome, noble, and classic! Ahh I can’t describe how much I love this! Andy is a cute nickname, but I hate the nickname Drew.
Andrew is a nice strong name with many lovable nickname potentials, such as Andy and Drew. I like it.
I feel like this is a name that fits boys and men of all different ages. I can't say that I'm a huge fan of the nickname "Drew," but to each their own. :)
My name is Drew and I think it's the best. Andy, Andrew, Drew etc. I think it's all good.
I love the name Andrew. Andy is such a cute nickname. And unlike all of those weird, trendy names, Andrew is a very classy name I just find adorable, not weird and cute only for babies. And the main reason why I love this name is because I have ancestors named Andrew so it has a personal connection to me.
Ok, I have to admit this is a little bit old fashioned. But good name!
LOVE THIS NAME! It's so handsome! I don't care if you people think it is common.
I really love this name. People named Andrew I know are friendly and nice. I dislike the nicknames Andy and Drew, though.
Boring and overused.
My name is Andrew and I have come not to like my name because it’s relatively common, so I feel less unique. Additionally, since it is relatively common, there are a few bad bearers of the name including Andrew Jackson, a very bad president, Andrew Johnson, also a very bad president, and Andrew Carnegie, one of the most infamous robber barons of the 19th century.
Common, yet it is still an awesome and timeless name for a boy!
Blah! Boring, boring, boring! Andy is even worse. It's like there was no creativity involved in the making of that name.
Alright. Not too good, but still just fine. Probably still overused, but there are many worse names that are popular, so Andrew's doing just fine.
I love the meaning, especially a for a Male. I hope people in future don’t name their girls this, especially with the masculine meaning.
Cool.
I used to like this name a lot because it sounded classy, but then that creepy Prince Andrew ruined it for me.
I tend to like names based on what they sound like to me and what they remind me of more than their actual meaning. When I first heard the nickname Drew, it made me think of morning dew (like on the grass), so I kind of think of it as a nature name.
I like it. Drew would be a nice nickname.
Sounds very dull and is out dated where I am from. Wouldn't use it (much prefer Christopher, Thomas and Anthony which are similar names)
I named my son Andrew for several reasons: #1, It's Biblical, #2, It isn't trendy #3, Seeing it, someone knows he's male but can't assume age or ethnicity. #4 The name Andrew fits well with all interests and jobs, and grows well with a person. I've worked with thousands of business owners and job seekers. Many comment they feel a little "restricted" or "boxed in" by their names (their words). For instance; my uncle's name is Jan, the Norwegian version of John. He's a lawyer. People ask for "Ms. Larson" on the phone. Someone seeking a male attorney may skip over Jan. This is often unintentional. Andrew looks great on a business card, resume, class list, retail badge, etc., and is popular enough that it's easily pronounced by people who speak English as a second language.
I've embarrassed myself stumbling over/mispronouncing names, and felt disrespectful having to call people by their first name instead of Mr. or Ms. If I wasn't sure. I prefer Andrew, but the nicknames Andy and Drew seem to fit different personalities well, again giving a person flexibility.
Very nice name.
One of my favorite boy names.
I don't like this name. It sounds annoying and too many people are named Andrew. I mean people use other names like Thomas and or James. That sounds better. I mean people, if you have a baby don't call it Andrew. There are too many Andrews and we need to call our babies other names and not the same name.
The most recent comment is not accurate on this forename being 'overused'. In fact, its decline in popularity is factually indicative of why this name might actually be a wise choice for anyone who might desire a strong yet timeless name for their son. Also, just for further information concerning the suggested Andreas, it would not work very well in my neck of the woods as it is considered a widely used feminine name.
Way overused. Go for its original Greek form Andreas instead.
Strong and masculine, just like the meaning. I like the nickname Drew.
I would definitely use this name for a son in honor of a special Andrew in my life that passed away. The only problems I have is it's hard for me to pronounce correctly with my accent and I don't like the nicknames Andy or Drew. Might use Rune instead.
I believe Andrew is a great name. I know an Andrew, and he is pretty short. My Granpop is also called Andrew, so I don't like when people call it a bad name. So, yeah.
Andrew fits just about any man or boy. I know many Andrews and the name fits them. It's a good one to pick for a baby if you don't know what he'll be like (which of course you don't).
I would put the name Andrew into retirement and use its Greek and German form Andreas instead.
It always reminds me of a preppy student who wears total-white and plays golf with his classmates.
The name Andrew is really really handsome and magical. It is my favorite name of all. And it's a creative name.
Overused and boring.
Andrew is a very handsome name, and it has nice nicknames like Andy and Drew.
Andrew is the name of my uncle, who gives me free money often. And who doesn't like free money? Overall this name is good, but I'd personally just use this as a middle name.
What a cute name! However, I despise its nicknames. Andy is too common and immature while Drew is just ugly (sorry). I picture a cute, young, and lively boy with this name. It was also a devastating hurricane that hit Florida in 1992. But unlike other names, I knew this name before I got interested in hurricanes.
I think Andrew is a wonderful name, but I'm biased - I'm in love with an Andrew!
It is the best name ever. Anyone that doesn't like it sucks.
Andrew is such an Asian name from my experience, that I can't picture other races with this name.
This is one of the WORST boy names I've ever heard. It sounds like "and EW". I hate the fact that it has an 'ew' at the end. This reminds me of a disgusting, sloppy ugly boy that reeks of fish.
I actually really like this name. It sounds strong and refined, though I really dislike the nickname Andy.
The name Andrew or "Andrea" is a very powerful & significant name.
All who bare this name are fortunate indeed as with it comes great strength.
I find it to be dull and boring, plus I've admittedly met a lot of entitled d-bags with this name, making me dislike it even more. The nickname Andy is cute, though.
My name is Andrew and I think it's cool and not that overused and people that think this name is stupid are idiots.
My name is Andrew and I like it. I wouldn't say it's too common though, I only know like, one other Andrew.
Andrew is my little brother-in-law's name and it fits him perfectly! Since the first time I met him, I knew he looked just like an Andrew. It is a name he can grow into and it is a good namesake (from the Bible) and we love it so much my husband and I might name our future daughter Drew.
I really like this name. Has a nice sound to me; I definitely think it's a name I'd consider for a son of mine.
The name is ok, but maybe a little 'stale' sounding. Sort of grates when you say it.
Not a bad name- "Drew" is a cool nickname. (:
Andrew is a great name. I would definitely use it. I like the nickname Andy better than Drew, though.
This is my name... While I like the name itself and would have considered it for a son, it has become just too common. I knew about 3-4 other Andrews when I was a kid, then met a half dozen or more in college, not to mention the parents/older people who have the name, the kid ringing up your groceries, the cable guy... it's everywhere! I'm in a highly populated area and work custumer service so I see a lot of names --trust me, it's overused. According to the charts it seems to have gone down some, so we may have a reprieve in the future!
This is one of those names I never get sick of hearing no matter how popular it becomes. It's a beautiful name for all ages and personalities. It sounds strong and handsome while still having a kind and gentle ring to it. Also a classic name that will never go out of style.
I like Andrew. It has some cool meaning to it. Well, this name has some masculinity to it. I think of a young boy when I think of Andrew. Anyway, Andrew is a good name. I will possibly use it.
Love this name. Very handsome.
Strong, masculine name. One of my top 10 names.
I love this name. I'm pretty sure that if I ever have a second son his name will be Andrew. It would be after my dad, who was called "Andy" as a nickname for Anthony, I like Andrew better. Despite it's position on the charts it is not terribly popular as far as I can tell ( at least in my area) as I have never even heard of any Andrews under 20.
I've always really liked this name, but it's become too popular for me to use it. Not that there's anything wrong with a popular name, I just have a relatively unusual name and like being the only Colleen in class. The occasion when there was another I was extremely bothered. I can name about 12 Andrews off the top of my head.
My favourite male name as of yet. I love how cute and boyish it is. Very princely and simple as well.
It's my baby's name and one of the most handsome male names there is. Although it's very common to most people, I felt like I was being different by giving him the name Andrew. When he goes to school, he's going to stand out among the crowd of Aidens, Cadens, and Hunters.
I love this name, it's so masculine and ages very very well. You can easily picture a baby, kid, teenager, adult... etc with this name. I want to name my kid Andrew. I hope by the time I have kids it won't be so insanely popular.
It might be a little overused, but you can't really go wrong with this name.
I really like this name. To me, it has a strong-but-gentle connotation. My brother's name is Andrew. He hates to be called Andy or Drew.
This is my name and I've always hated it. I was in my 30s before I became comfortable with it. I don't think it suits me at all. The sound is hideous, the nicknames ridiculous.
I like this name on a boy. But I don't like the nickname Andy.
My father has this name - some people nickname him "Andy" but it really doesn't suit him. The name "Andrew" is good and fitting to his character I think, but "Andy" or "Drew" makes him sound like a completely different person. So I think that the name and its nicknames denote different personalities.
I love this name! It reminds me of a strong person.
My mother named me Andrew after my father, Andrew, which is also my grandfather's name. So, my family is FULL of Andrews. I only hope the name gets more respect than it already has.
I loathe this name because it was being excessively overused. Andrews are everywhere and you will always find two or five or more at random chosen locations.
I love this name. It's strong and handsome. I think it's much too popular at the moment, though. I know many Andrews, but I like all of them, so the associations with this name just make me like it more.
Number 6 for boys in 2005. I like this name, but I like the nickname Andy a little bit better.
It is a simple name with worthy namesakes and a strong sound.
Great name. If I ever have a son I plan on calling him Andrew.
The name in itself is freakin' awesome. It's totally normal & sounds very nice. My soon-to-be brother will be called this, & it will describe his personality well. I've only ever met 1 Andrew, so it is definitely not overused.
Although I would never use a Biblical name for my son (assuming I ever have children), I like this name. It's a very safe choice, as it isn't trendy in the sense that it would clearly be from a certain era, and it sounds good on kids and adults alike. At least this name shouldn't lead to bullying.
Extremely popular now, but I still like it.
Andrew is my boyfriend's name and I love it! What annoys me though is that too many people are named Andrew, when only certain people should.
I think the name Andrew is a very handsome name.
I know several Andrews that go by various forms like Andy and Drew, but also Andrew, and all of them are extremely obnoxious. It also makes me think of Andy on the US version of The Office--who is also extremely obnoxious. I have a hard time liking this name.
My brother's name was Andrew, though he died when I was a very young, so for years I never connected this name to him. Then one day I started wondering why I was so attracted to this name. I think it's pretty much my favorite name ever.
My name is Andrew and personally I really like the name but I've come across a problem. The problem is that every time someone says "and," I'm alway thinking that they are calling my name. It really annoys me especially when I'm not paying attention which causes me to be very surprised. Anybody else with the name Andrew have this problem?
Andrew is a really hard name for me. It all depends how you use it. I've found that 'Drews' tend to be a bit out-there, and keeping it at Andrew makes for a quiet, shy kid. Meanwhile I know several 'Andys', all of which are very attractive and popular people.
This name is handsome as it means man, like Charles. I like it, but it starting to get popular now, and if you like the meaning, you can pick Charles. It has the exact same meaning as this, only a different name. Of course, that's just a suggestion. You don't really have to take it.
I feel that this name is a nice name and works for many guys that are out there. I would not mind naming someone this name.
Awesome name! =) I only know 3 Andrews and 2 of them are in my grade. It's not very overused where I live. I love the nickname Drew for it, it's really cute. Anyways, it's a very lovely name.
I love Andrew! It is such an amazing and cute name. All the Andrews I know are really cute and really fast runners.
I don't like how popular this name is. It sounds ok, but I think every class I've ever been in at school has had at least one Andrew in it. It is a classic, I'll give it that, but I personally would not name my child this.
I think that Andrew is a nice name and not too overly-used. I only know one Andrew and he is very nice and funny with a good personality.
It's my favorite male name and I absolutely hate how popular it is! I would name my son this. I like this guy named Andrew and he might not be the most "manly" guy out there, I still like him a lot. The name suits him very great except for the meaning.
I love this name so much! It's my favourite male name! It always reminds me of someone very handsome and sweet!
Despite what the popularity charts show, there isn't one Andrew in my boys classes at school and I only know of one adult with this name. I think Andrew is a handsome name. I love it.
I think it is a very nice name for anyone. It evokes a sense of strength and masculinity yet also evokes softness, gentleness and kindness. Classic.
Andrew is a strong, rugged name. It is no wonder it has remained a timeless classic and never went out of style.
This is an awesome name. It's very handsome-sounding, but it will suit anyone as long as it's a guy!
Andrew sounds like the name of an angel. Too bad it's overused but it still does not affect its quality. :)
I know 16 Andrews, and although it's a great name it can get confusing. It's too overused.
Andrew is a beautiful name. I only know one Andrew, but it is the perfect name for him. He is protective of his family, brilliantly hardwired, impeccably mannered, possesses sparklish eyes, walks like an undercover king, and has the charm of a boyish storyteller. The name lives up to him, and he lives up to the name.
I think the name Andrew sounds like a warrior's name. People who don't like it are just stupid. They are generally really cool people.
Andrew is, to me, a wonderful name. It just seems so strong and handsome (how apt, when the meaning is "strong and manly"), without being smack-you-in-the-face He-Man.
This is my name and I like it. It will never become too old fashioned or too new fashioned.
