Thoughts on the name Rooney for a boy? Does Runey work for a girl? Do you prefer the name for a boy or girl, and which spelling do you prefer for each?"Your goal in life should be to make your past self envious of your current self""Be kind, please rewind" - an ancient proverb

All I can think of is Mickey Rooney. I think it sounds too weird as a first name for either gender.

MickeyReminds me of Mickey Rooney. Not one of my favorite actors, but he did have some good movies.

It makes me think of Wayne Rooney, which isn’t a great association (imo).

This name sort of reminds me of names I like, Rene and Renee. Idon't like Rooney though, Rodney is better. I think its the ooney I dislike. I prefer Rena or Renee for a girl.

It's referring to Andy Rooney:He did a segment on the TV show "60 Minutes" called "A Few Minutes With Andy Rooney". A phrase he would often end up saying during the segment was "Have you ever noticed...." to the point that him saying it was satirized on "Saturday Night Life" and the phrase became tied to him.

I didn't get it either, though I did watch his end-bit from "60 Minutes". I didn't like him, toward the end(of his segment, and him too, in fact). He was just poking around for things to grouse about. In my opinion.
