Harrison Ford is an acclaimed American actor.
Terrible name, especially because it's a car that was invented by the vile anti-Semite Henry Ford.
This is not my favourite name in the world, but it's definitely nicer sounding than a Paisleigh or a Zayden. The only possible downside is the lack of nicknames. But the car association is not THAT bad as far as associations go.
Reminds me of the car brand.
Ford... found on rode dead XD.
I met a little girl named Ford, but it was hyphenated Ford- and a common, strictly feminine name.
Good name.

Only good as a surname.
I like it as a surname (Like Gerald Ford, Henry Ford, Harrison Ford, Tom Ford, Betty Ford) but I can't see it as a first name. Also, there was a character in Hitchhiker's Guide called Ford Prefect.
Not a terrible name. Just makes a very bland first name. In my opinion, Ford works best left as strictly a surname.
Tolerable as a surname. As a first or middle name basis, it doesn't even SOUND like a name. If I met someone named "Ford" I'd honestly assume that was their last name or nickname.
This is a surname, it is too dull to be used as a first name.

I think this name sounds kind of cool but I wouldn't name a kid this because of the car association.
I recently met a little boy with the name "Ford." I kept thinking of a "Ford" car or truck. I just couldn't get past that image. It's not a name I would use for a child.
