WDYTO Duchovny for a girl? I know it's pretty ridiculous, surnamey, trendy-ish and the like, but I really love it right now. Do you think it could be useable? Best kept in the MN spot? Or should I just keep it for a character name?If your not so disturbed by the idea, can you think of any first or middle names to balance it out? TIA

I find it weird-sounding.
And I associate it too much with David Duchovny.
No, don't use it.

It sounds awful, makes me think of The X Files.

Uh no....Being a fan of both David Duchovny and The X-Files (it is my all time fave TV show) I am disturbed by this. Every time I hear "Duchovny," I automatically Think David Duchovny and/or The X-Files.But another thing: For a girl?
If anything, it sounds more for a boy, if I thought it could be used as such. Meaning a first name.

It would be pretty nice on a boy, but speaking as one of thousands of X-Philes, the David Duchovny association is stuck. Which wouldn't be a bad thing if it weren't for Mr. Duchovny's recent (rather absurd) scandals.

That song was my first thought, too. I didn't mention it though, because I'm pretty sure it's not well known.

Yes, but.... The actor himself is well known, TOO well known.

I'm puzzled about how to pronounce that name. I guess that's why I don't like it.

Try listend here...It is David Letterman introducing David Duchovny:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1uxiEcCd2sYouTube is always useful in these situations. I tried to spell it out, but I failed at it. It didn't look or sound right to me.

I must admit I didn't know that guy. Must be because I hardly ever watch TV. Always happens to me when it comes to celebreties... I must say I really really dislike that as a name!

Nobody would be able to pronounce it, unless they actively thought of David Duchovny, the actor, first, and that would be awful to live with for a little girl. I use to adore him in the X-files as a youngster, and for months I said his name "Dutch-of-nee" until I learned better. I don't think it's attractive enough to be a good girl's name, sorry :(I think it would be most kick-butt for a boy. You could call him Duke for short. And he would rule the schoolyard with fists of iron.

Wow-- Duchovny, nn. Duke, is cool. A bit out there, unless your last name is something like Brown."And he would rule the schoolyard with fists of iron." You're doggone right, he would.
