Re: Graham
in reply to a message by Andie
I've always kind of liked it. For some reason it sounds really Grandpa-ish to me. Not that that's a bad thing, but that's my perception. Some surnames just give me that old perception, Graham is one of them. I like Graham Joseph, sounds nice.Odd tid-bit, it's actually my street name too.

I think it is grandpa-ish too, maybe it's the gra- part?

That's very well possible, that could influence it. But I think even without that connection, it still sounds like an older surname-as-firstname. Not like a lot of surnames that sound rather "new" even if they aren't. Well in my opinion anyway.

Despite the fact that I like the name, I actually find it grand-MA-ish, since we call my grandmother "Gram". haha.
