I strongly prefer Gunnar. Why would you want something so violent to be associated with your child?
I prefer Gunnar myself, but I don’t see anything wrong with this sort of spelling, it’s just like Hunter which is also a good and fine name.It’s understandable if you don’t want a name with violent connotations, but many many many names do, like Hunter or Lance or all the hundreds of names that mean spear or warrior or soldier, so I don’t think it’s fair to single this one out as exceptionally bad. I think there are plenty of people who wear the name Gunner with pride and wear it well.
In the U.S. Gunner is pronounced GUN-ər. [noted -ed]
Seems like illiterates who happened to hear of the name Gunnar, which has nothing to do with guns, went to name their baby that but ended up with this misspelling. Brings to mind phrases such as “tail-Gunner”, “turret-Gunner”, and “machine-Gunner”. Ridiculous. Don’t burden anyone with a name that’s misspelled or has strange connotations.
This name sounds like something gun nuts would name their son.
I love this name.
The Scandinavian original is lot better than this.
