What do you think of Wade?
I like it, but I'm not sure why, and I can see why someone would not like it, but I still like it.

I hate it. It makes me think of a fat nerd, or a pig.

It reminds of this cartoon I used to watch as a kid called Kim Possible and the character of Wade I believe was a genius who built the heroine's gadgets.
I like it, it makes me think of out west.

Wade is okay. I don't like it enough to ever consider it, but there are things I really like about it, such as its short length and water imagery. It has an "old, Southern gentleman" feel, and I like that, too.
My ex hated Wade. He thought it was very redneck and sounded like "Wayne with a cold." It was almost a joke name to him, on par with Bubba.

I kinda like it. Sort of. I don't think I'd ever use it. It's one of those names that I like, but I'd really only use it for a character.

I don't like it. I don't like Wayne either and the two seem cut from the same cloth.
I went to high school with a Wade. He had a twin sister named Wendy, and they were nasty kids who grew up into nasty adults. That's the only Wade I knew, I've known more guys named Wayne and it was a fairly popular middle name.

I'm not a big fan of the name, although I could see why someone would like it. My opinion is colored by the Wade I knew growing up so it is not a good association for me.

I live in South Carolina, home of Wade Hampton I, (1752-1835), soldier, politician, U.S. Congressman, and his son Wade Hampton II, (1791-1858) politican and soldier, and his grandson Wade Hampton III, (1818-1902), Confederate cavalry leader, Governor of South Carolina, and U.S. Senator. There is a long, prominent, busy street here named Wade Hampton Boulevard. It was probably named after Wade III, but it's possible it was named after any one of them or all three.
So the name makes me think of them, and although I am no fan of the erstwhile Confederacy, I am a fan of names that have what I consider to be nineteenth-century charm, so I think that's what makes me favor Wade.

Not my cup of tea. I don't like the way it sounds, to me it just sounds weird. Doesn't work as a name.

I think it sounds very strong and to-the-point.

I don't like it at all. It's too similar to too many words. I wade in the pool, and I get weighed at the doctor's. When someone says "wait" quickly, it sounds like Wade.
It just isn't attractive as a name for me.
