Monday and Friday are the only day of the week names I personally don't care for.

Here is my column on the subject of the use of days of the week as personal names in the USA, if anyone is interested:

I don’t like it.

I don’t like any days of the week names, this win is pretty bad. If you have to do a day name, my favorite would be Friday

It's my favorite day name. I think it's adorable, and I associate it with the wonderful Tuesday Weld.

Idiotic, like all weekday names. I prefer Ruby ...

No, just no.

I have no idea where the idea of naming children after days of the week came from but it seems like a fleeting trend and I just don't get it. Ugh.

(Okay, maybe fleeting isn't the right word: I remember saying I thought Thursday was ugly as a name 15 years ago on here and being in the minority.)

Just, no.

Could be beautiful, especially paired with the right other name(s). Came across a woman named Friday Bailey the other day and thought it was completely charming.

Tuesday Weld made it work; So I think I like it. I also like Sunday, and Monday! Tuesday reminds me of cheesecake. Lovely and unique name but also a bit weird. In a good way.

Love it. Can't remember where I got it from but it's been living in my mind rent free for probably about two years now. There's something just incredibly appealing about it. I think it's an okay day of the week, it looks great, sounds great, I just really like it.
