I have always liked the sound of the name Nigel.-- Anonymous User 5/28/2006
I like this name, it's very characteristically British. But it's so much so, I don't think I'd ever use it for an American child - he'd get laughed out of school.-- Anonymous User 6/14/2006
A famous bearer is Nigel Mansell, former F1 racing driver.-- Nirvanna 7/6/2006
I knew of one kid named Nigel that I went to school with here in Canada. He wasn't made fun of because of his name. He was actually a pretty cool kid.-- Anonymous User 7/6/2006
I actually like this name. It sounds nice and isn't overused or fadish.-- Anonymous User 7/6/2006

"Hello, I'm Nigel Thornberry..."
Wild Thornberries, Nickelodeon cartoon about a family that worked on a nature show. Nigel was the father and host of the show, and spoke in a very nasally voice, which is all I can think of when I hear this name.-- Irish Pearl 12/22/2006
This is a very unique name. I would just name my son this since there seems to be so many Johns and Aidans out there, Nigel would stand out by far!-- Anonymous User 4/17/2007
Nigel Glockler of Saxon.-- Midgard666 11/10/2007
If you're not English, you can't have this name. It's like a non-American being named Cliff. You're stuck as Clifford if you're English.-- Midgard666 11/10/2007
Nigel Wick was Drew's eccentric boss on "The Drew Carey Show", played by Craig Ferguson.-- FMRadio 4/4/2008
Ugh, I have never liked this name. It sounds like one of those elitist British names given to British boys who are sent to boarding schools. The sound is very unpleasant anyway.-- slight night shiver 5/1/2008
I adore this name. I am American, and my nephew is named this, so telling us that Americans CAN'T have this name is wrong and rude. I think the sound of this name is so cool, and sweet. My nephew is 15 and had never been teased about his name.-- Chanel 5/6/2008
I will always associate this name with a rather dorky looking tabby cat a friend own. Aside from that, it seems like a good name. I had thought that it was Biblical from the -el ending.-- morrigans-wings 11/27/2008
"Nigel No Friends" - Aussie slang for someone without any friends, someone who's alone. My mum uses this one a lot, e.g. "Yeah, she's a bit of a Nigel. Her whole family's gone to Europe for Christmas."-- Mondays Child 12/16/2008
Nigel was my old dog's name. I'm American, but my parents are English and suggested it as a joke. I found the name suitable and somewhat funny since it doesn't really exist in the US as a "real" name. He looked like a Nigel, kinda scruffy and wiry, but dignified at the same time. Good name for a pet. Probably not for a child. ;)-- Tiger-LilyFP 11/29/2009
It would be cruel for parents to name a child Nigel today if it were expected he would spend any time in Australia, where the name is an insult.-- vomiting 1/1/2010
It's okay but I prefer Rigel.-- Bazinga 12/22/2011
