This is my boyfriend's name. It's quite common here in Argentina, I think I've met like five of them in my life. I don't like it so much, I wouldn't recommend it, I know it sounds powerful but there is no depth in it.

Franco sounds like an interesting substitute for the common name (at least here in the U.S.A.) of Francis. If one thinks this name would suit a future child then by all means use it and enjoy!

I love this name. It's strong and has an international feel to it. I prefer it 100 times more than Francisco or Francesco. It can be shortened to Frank or Franky too, cute nicknames.

I don't like this name. All I can think of is that monster General Franco. I'd expect his brothers to be called Adolf and Benito.
