Re: Fred
My dream is to one day use Ferdinand "Freddie" but I don't think it'll happen. My dad's name is Frederick and he hates it, thinks it's the worst name ever, and goes by Rick. I love it and would love to pass it on, but probably won't just because my dad truly hates any "Fred" name so much, and it would kind of be the opposite of honoring at that point. =PMy go-to Ferdinand combos are Ferdinand Pierce and John Paul Ferdinand.My dad's name is Frederick Peter and my grandfather/great-grandfather were named Frederick George. I think they're all great!

My cousin named her little boy Frederick Peter just last year. Cool!

So nice to see a fellow Ferdinand lover! I never thought of using Fred for short, that is really cute. Awesome combos!

Wahoo! Years ago I started liking the idea of Freddie because of Mercury, and I realized Ferdinand could fit the bill for a full name.
