Cool name.

Too close to booger.

It's a very old-fashioned name, and it rhymes with 'hooker'. Some people would pronounce it as ''BOO-kah'', which would be absolutely atrocious. It's not a nice-sounding name anyway.

With all the occupational surnames becoming popular I am surprised that this one isn't in the top 1000.

One bearer was Booker Bradshaw who played Dr. M'Benga in Star Trek TOS.

I imagine a kid named Booker would grow up to be a librarian or a cop (Book 'em, Booker, haha). That's just my first impression though :P
