Re: Conrad

Thanks to everyone who replied.
The reason I am considering writing on the name is because there is an American TV show called "The Resident" which is having its "midseason premier" on the day the column will be published. The main character in that series is Dr. Conrad Hawkins, played by the actor Matt Czuchry, who previously had regular roles on "Gilmore Girls" and "The Good Wife." I have never seen any of those shows and had no knowledge of Mr. Czuchry, but I'm surprised that none of you young people mentioned "The Resident". It's now in its third season so somebody in the USA must be watching it!

I was surprised to see that a TV series had named a handsome young doctor Conrad, as to my 68 year old mind the associations are to "Bye Bye Birdie" or "elderly German man." It seems that Hollywood writers at least have a different image of the name than I do.
