[Opinions] Archibald
I saw a little boy named Archibald today, he was about one. Nobody called him Archie, everyone was calling him Archibald. I thought it terribly cute.

I would use Archibald but only as a way to get the nickname Archie. I think a child called Archibald would be strange - it just sounds like such a grown up name! I would love to see brothers called Archibald "Archie" and Montgomery "Monty" - mmmmm!

Aw, how totally adorable. Great to see a not-just-Archie!

I'm not sure how I feel about that. Mostly because I'm not sure how I feel about Archibald. It's sort of so awkward and stereotypical-British that I like it. So trying to imagine it on a baby makes it seem like an awesome and fun idea, but also a bit pretentious. But mostly awesome and fun.

Archibald is so cuddle-worthy. I just want to kiss him on his sweet face 'cause you know an Archibald would have a sweet face. I like Archie and Arch, too.
