I have always loved the name Rufus. I especially like the combo Rufus Aaron. However when I told my friends that I likd this name they just laughed and said it was a dog's name. I was not very happy with them for saying that. So now I have gone off the idea of naming any future son this name because of that. I do not want my son to be bullied or teased and therefore hate his name. But I really do love this name and am very sad that people only associate it with dogs. Does anyone even know any dogs called Rufus? And also Rufus is in the Bible so this makes me love it even more!

So what do you think of Rufus? And do you have any names that you like but other people make fun off?

(I'm sorry I went off on a rant, but I feel very strongly about this and felt that I needed to defend the name Rufus.)
