Sorry it isn't my style. It just makes me think of something like a wad of cash.

Only as a nn for Cassius!

Once I saw it in a BA post - my first reaction was, What's his brother's name, Check?

I think it's cool too : )

If you are trying to use it to honor the late Johnny Cash I would choose something different. Even his great friend Jane Seymour named her son Johnny for him instead of Cash. I think it would be cheesy to use Cash as a fn. Maybe as a mn it wouldn't be so bad, as long as you don't pair it with a fn Johnny.

No, not for Johnny Cash : )

I don't like it, I don't find anything very appealing about it and the name just seems kind of weird to me. =/

To me it's like naming him Money or Dollar
Sibset I know: Quincee (girl) & Kash.

I like it spelled with a "K"

Ditto, especially . . .
. . . especially here in Australia, where parents get given a sizeable lump-sum assistance payment from the government when they have a baby. In some welfare-class sections of the population, it's quite acceptable to go have a baby because you want the deposit on a car and the baby bonus will cover that :-(
So yeah, calling a child Cash has definite "child as commodity or currency" overtones.

That'd be pretty funny. "... so we named him Cash, and his brother here is Cheque!"
I think in the US the same thing is going on because of the per-child tax deduction. When I tell folks I'm due on the 30th of December, they make a comment about hoping for birth before the year's up because then we can take the deduction for 2007. *eyeroll*
Anyway ... Cash on a grown man in the US just sounds, I think, sort of like a Johnny Cash tribute name... it has a sort of earthy, hardboiled feel about it, very butch but also tinged with glamour. (not my style at all, however)

Mmm, I agree with this..Cash is nmsaa (nt(

I think it's not very usable, because of obvious reasons. I wouldn't like to see it used, the sound is okay though..

I love it
However, it is my mother's maiden name so I tell myself that I have an excuse to use it :) I don't actually know how it would do on a real person.
I'd probably keep it in the middle name slot, though.
