Princeton
It surprises me, that Princeton is actually on the US charts for boys. What are your thoughts on the name?

It’s a university and town. I can’t see it as a name for a person.
Princeton is one of those bittersweet tragic names to me. There's so much yearning behind these names. Like you know anyone named Princeton is never gonna go to Princeton, but his family has great hopes for him.
Sounds like a preppy rich kid name.
Better than “Brown”, but that’s the only good thing I can think of to say about it.
Don’t like the sound and it would be really awkward if he turned out to be a terrible student.
Not a huge fan, but I am not usually a fan of any of the -ton boys names.
Not a fan.
Too preppy for me.
I actually love it!
It surprises me by being even worse than Prince. Very pretentious, though: I'd expect a brother named Harvard.
Don't like it at all
