Comments for the name Willard

This is the real first name of actor/rapper Will Smith.

On Sabrina the Teenage Witch Sabrina's principal is named Willard Craft.

Willard is a beautiful name, it is the name (in my view) of a quiet beautiful genious who gets tormented by everyone else around him. A very nice name indeed.

Willard Dorsett is the father of Sybil Isabel Dorsett, infamous for having the first multiple-personality case to ever be psychoanalyzed.

This name is okay, but I personally prefer William. Willard sounds snobby to me for some reason, no offense to any Willards out there.

This name sounds quite old-fashioned and a tad pretentious and elitist, and also a bit geeky in a way. This is the real name of Mitt Romney, and people on the blogs Pandagon and Feministe would joke how Mormons always give their chidren such ultra-white names like Willard, which is funny, because this is also the real name of Will Smith. Come to think of it, the name does sound better for white guys, but I would't use it for anyone, especially since Mitt Romney has really ruined it.

Willard Scott is an American media personality and author best known for his television work on NBC's The Today Show and as the creator of the Ronald McDonald character.

Another sort-of-famous bearer is the fictional Willard Tweedy from Nick Park's Chicken Run. :)

This was the main character in the episode/story 'Well'ard Willard' on the British children's TV show 'Grizzly Tales for Gruesome Kids' (based off a book series). He stole the sun by using a telescope and a jar.

Not very famous but there you go.

Willard is the first name of Mitt Romney, an American politician and 2012 Presidential candidate.
