opinion on Tex from Texas
in reply to a message by Natla
Being from Texas I have to say it would be unusual to run into a Tex under the age of say...80. There's a huge statue of a cowboy at the State Fair called big Tex so the name seems pretty comical to me, especially on someone with no connection to Texas. Harlow seems a little different because its also a surname but I doubt that many people have the last name Tex or Texas. I think the name is really only suitable for ranchers or cowboys from Texas. I think a child would be made fun of for such a name. That being said, every Tex I know of has had the nn because theyre from here and not for a full name, their first names are usually completely unrelated to this nn so you could use it for any name.
