Comments for the name Garfield

James Garfield was the 20th President of the United States. He was assassinated in 1881.

Garfield Logan is the real name of Teen Titan's Beast Boy, an ex member of the Doom Patrol.

I can't believe that no one's mentioned the comic strip! Garfield rocks!

This name sounds really pretentious as a first name, or would, if it didn't immediately bring the cartoon cat to mind. The poor guy would be teased mercilessly, especially if he was fat.

Who couldn't love the comic strips? I have always loved Garfield ever since I was little. I think it's interesting, though I couldn't see a modern-day boy with this name. More like a grandfather or a great-grandfather, but that's it.

A fat, lazy, cat comes to mind when I hear this name.

Garfield is a given name in my family (grandfather, father, brother), but the full name is only used formally. They go by "Gar".
