Princeton
It surprises me, that Princeton is actually on the US charts for boys. What are your thoughts on the name?

Don't like it at all
It surprises me by being even worse than Prince. Very pretentious, though: I'd expect a brother named Harvard.
I actually love it!
Too preppy for me.
Not a fan.
Not a huge fan, but I am not usually a fan of any of the -ton boys names.
Don’t like the sound and it would be really awkward if he turned out to be a terrible student.
Better than “Brown”, but that’s the only good thing I can think of to say about it.
Sounds like a preppy rich kid name.
Princeton is one of those bittersweet tragic names to me. There's so much yearning behind these names. Like you know anyone named Princeton is never gonna go to Princeton, but his family has great hopes for him.
It’s a university and town. I can’t see it as a name for a person.
