User comments for Mark

Mark is a cute name. I like it more with an K than a C.

I was given the name by my grandparents who said I WAS THE MARK of the family (The first born).

The name is simple, with only one syllable, but in my opinion it's a strong-sounding name. I find many people with this name have strong personalities as if compensating for their simple name.

This name is so boring, plus it means to leave a Mark on something. Not very good...

Short, simple, and strong sounding. It's a very good name, though it's not a favorite of mine.

Mark is the Ultimate Alpha Male name (have you ever met a Mark who isn't?)

I think this is really an awesome name. Mark was voted sexiest name for men in 2014. The name Mark for a boy would be a great one!

I see this as a strong, trustworthy, timeless name. I've met old men called Mark, little boys called Mark and everything in between. Very classic.

Mark is a strong, cute, handsome & manly name. I love how classy this name is! :)

Seems like a painful sort of name to me. Mark's all over your body...

I find it abhorrent that someone referred to the name Mark as being like having marks all over your body. Indeed, the comment disgusted me, yet I am proud to be a Mark regardless of how small minded the creator of the aforementioned comment may be.

I have a brother named Mark, so I like it. I think it's a very classic and strong sounding name.

"Mark" is an incredibly classic, timeless, professional and handsome name. I find it an honoring bow to the old-world, yet a welcoming wave to contemporary life. A breath of fresh air from all the "Jayden"s.
I only support the traditional spellings... in other words: Mark, Marc. Taking it a further "kre8tiv" step to "Marck" instantly murders the elegant pleasure.

"Markie/Marky" is an irresistible nickname, may I add.

Mark is such a strong, handsome name. In writing, it is neat and looks as good as it sounds. What a fine, underused classic name!

It's funny how many posters I'm seeing that scorn the name Mark for sounding like he's "marking things up" or "leaving marks all over the place." I've always thought that the sentiment "to leave your mark on something/someone" was very powerful, especially when conveyed in someone's name. I'd have to be one of those "refrigerator mothers" if I ever had a son and didn't feel like he'd left some kind of mark on me.

This is my dad's name and it is a very lovely name. All the Mark's I have met have been hard working, extremely friendly, and very funny. This name is highly usable as a boy's name.

I like Marcus but not Mark because it sounds like BIRTH MARK or a mole. Ew. It's really boring and nerdy to me.

Mark is such a stable and incredibly usable name. I think that it's very under appreciated.

This name sounds funny.

What a boring name, Mark, it could mean a "mark on the wall", there's a mark on the car, such a boring name.

I was happy when I discovered my cousin is named this so now if I ever marry and have a son, I can say that this name is my cousin and not be lying. I don't like this name, mainly because, every Mark (including my cousin) except one are all really good people. Unfortunately, the latter gives me bad thoughts of the name since I've known him soooooo very long now. Otherwise, it's a good name.

Mark is a wonderful name, for the fifty year old man next door. Really, no child wants to be named Mark.

I am not a fan of this name. It sounds like leaving a Mark for something.

I have a lot of friends named Mark and they are all kind of self centered and always around girls. If you are thinking about naming your son Mark, I like the name but not the personalities.

Mark is a very overly used name in America and I'm sure it's well know in other countries as well. I've known about three people with this name personally and all of them are hard working and honest people. The trait to be silly and creative seems to follow with this name too. Though I have to say that the Polish form of Mark is my favorite. It's more classy. Overall, Mark is a good name with great personality but only if you can overcome the fact that it is overused. Though it's probably not as overused as Christopher or Jacob. =D That's a plus.

Bit of a dorky name me thinks.

My favorite spelling is Marck. Gorgeous name!

I like this name much better spelled Mark then Marc. This is a pretty good guy's name.

It was one of my favorite names for men, until I married one. Now it kind of has a negative aftertaste.

This name also has a real sentimental connection to me. It's very timeless and it's a name I will always love. I have met heaps of people with this name and they have all been quite nice. :)
