One famous bearer of this name is Dudley Dursley from J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series. He's a spoiled, rotten person.

I like the "studley" inference. I hate the "dud" prefix.

If I'll ever have a dog, I would call it Dudley! I think it's a perfect name for a cute, cuddly, little doggy!

Awful. Just awful. The guy would be called Dud. The name sounds utterly silly.

Does no one else remember Dudley the Dragon? I know he wasn't that popular, but still. He had his pictures on shoes!

As a Harry Potter-fan, I don't like that name. Always reminds me of Dudley Dursley, a pathetic, spoiled bully. I doubt that name will be popular, while the Harry Potter-series still are really popular.
