Re: Dutch

No, sorry. You might as well call your child Italian or Malaysian.
There's also the 'double dutch' association. 'Dutch courage'? There's probably loads more I can't bring to mind.
And the sound isn't great, nor is the look. You might as well go with, say... Butch!

Hey, Malaysia is on the top 1000 of 2012, and Mariah Carey called one of her kids Moroccan! But I see what you mean.
I don't know what "Dutch courage" means, I've never heard of that one, I'll have to look it up. Double Dutch, yeah... and "going Dutch"... hmmm, I think perhaps it is better as a nickname than anything else, you're right.
I just thought it had a retro sort of appeal, like Shep or Chip, those sort of names.
