I like the names Percy and Annabeth, I don't really like the name Grover. Grover is a good character but his name isn't my style

Makes me think of the word grovelling, meh. Percy is uptight, Annabeth is great

I don't think of Sesame Street exactly, but I do think of green shag rugs (and Oscar?).
It seems very...midcentury grunge or fuzzy in an avant-garde jazz type way.

---

It's garish and works about like Garfield / Homer / Elmer / Chester would, though possibly a little more fashionably, like Otis / Oscar / Gus / Asher.
Also, sounds like it could be unisex in a modern context (Harper, Piper, Juniper, Parker, Hunter, River, Clover, Grover).

I like Grover more than Percy or Annabeth ...maybe because it seems less proper, but I don't strongly like/dislike any of them.
Percy sounds a little persnickety/parsimonious/chivalrous and Annabeth sounds conventional/happy-go-lucky.

One of the greatest pitchers ever in MLB was Grover Cleveland Alexander. I'm good with Grover.

I don't know if kids still watch Sesame Street, but I like Grover. It's push-broom mustache walrus president, but I like it. It's so ugly, it's cute.

I think Grover is pretty cool but still too connected to Sesame Street. Percy and Annabeth are both nice =)

Sesame street for sure
Hate Percy
Like annabeth

I really like Grover and love Percy. Annabeth is also sweet, though I prefer Annegret.

I don't love it. And it's not because of either association, I actually love PJO, I just don't love the name in general. I do love Annabeth though, not so much Percy. :)

I could possibly warm up to Grover, if not for the furry monster. I like Annabeth. But I actively dislike Percy and any variations of it.

I'm not sure my family is the norm, but my kids (6 and 4) know Grover from Sesame Street. I quite like Grover and might use it if it weren't for the monster. It feels a bit old and nerdy to me, but I tend to like names that feel that way.

Percy is okay. I like it more as short for Percival than for Perseus. It makes me think of the Engine from Thomas the Tank Engine though.

---

Annabeth is saccharine. Better than Annabel, but it just takes two swedish names and smashes them together.

Grover will always remind me of the frumpy blue monster, and I don't like this name.

---

Percy is a bad name in my opinion, it sounds close to the Girl's name Mercy. Maybe Percival?

---

Annabeth is pretty, I like it.

Sesame Street is still very popular with kids. It keeps evolving and changing, but Grover is still a big part of the cast.
It's so heavily associated with the show for so many people and for so long I don't think it would be a great name to give a boy today. He would get awfully tired of being called lovable furry old Grover".
Percy is a cliched posh English fop name.
Annabeth is cutesy.
