HelpRe: Clyde
in reply to a message by Sabrina Fair
Personally, I just can't get past the Bonnie and Clyde association, it's just to obvious and well-known. Morality seems to be quite important for you, would you really want to give your child the name of a famous efferate criminal?
Otherwise, it wouldn't be a bad name just from the point of view of the sound.
Clyde Edward or Clyde Edmund could work. Or, as a mn, Jospeh Clyde and Alexander Clyde. It's really too weird to contemplate on a girl.

I love my name, but that's a huge downside for me
The fact that I share my name with Aileen Wuornos sometimes upsets me a bit, because I love the originality and uniqueness of my name, having never met an Aileen before in my entire life. But having the same name as a serial killer is never a good association.

I actually saw that movie Monster about her yesterday. Aileen is a name I always liked a lot (still do). Are you ever teased about it because of your name?

There are lots of other Charles's, though. I would find it very strange if someone named their child Manson!

True, I just thought maybe it's cause Clyde isn't used a lot which makes sense! LOL.
I HAVE seen a kid named Manson once....

All things considered, though, Clyde is a nice enough name that if you like it you should use it. The association isn't bad enough to ruin it. I would probably make it a mn just to avoid teasing...
The kid named Manson must have a rough life. LOL.
The two namesakes I know of are Charles Manson and Marilyn Manson. Both of which are terrible! And I thought Heven Le'Blessing was bad.
