My Dad calls random obnoxious guys “Ace”. Kinda like buddy, slick, or pal.

Like "I aced the test!"? LOL just kidding, this is a nice name.
My son is the 5th (yes, V). His initials spelled backwards are Ace. The variations of nicknames chosen by my husband's family after five generations with the same legal name have run the course and this seemed perfect for my son. He has really only been called Ace his entire life and somehow he has lived up to the name. It is a perfect gender neutral name. Sorry, I have my Ace and he is adored, a brilliant, popular, super successful and athletic teenager. The name has worked perfectly for him.
Ace traditionally meant “a noble who excels.” Its French origins have the meaning “unity.” In modern times, the name tends to conjure up a combined definition of the English and French— a man blessed with skill and luck— one who brings everything and everyone together.

I apologize to anyone called Ace but this name is just so... juvenile! I'd say more but I don't want to offend.
Ace is more of a dog name considering I had a relative with a Boston terrier called Ace that had brain cancer... everyone knew his name. I miss that doggo. So Ace is very special to me, but I like it on dogs.
In 2018, 2 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Ace who is registered male with the Social Security Administration. It is the 4080th most common male first name for living U.S. citizens.
Even if the name seems pretentious as hell when you look at the meaning, I love how it looks and sounds. It makes me think of a confident and generous, if a little impulsive man whenever I hear it. Then again, that may be just because I tend to associate this name with Ace Grit from Bakugan: New Vestroia, but oh well.

My name is Ace, derived from my Chinese name "Weiwei", meaning "the loftiest" or "the greatest", which is what Ace is. They're also phonetically similar.I'm a female but I still use the name, as does Ace from Doctor Who, the 7th Doctor's companion (And probably lover? But I digress!)I think this name is okay for anyone to use, male or female, young or old. It's unisex and pretty functional in any walk of life, especially so if one is a detective ;p.

I also happen to be asexual, and I feel like if I used this it would be like naming my child after my sexuality. It's a little weird, but I'm not completely opposed to it.

I really like the name Ace! It's cool, it's different, it's got an edginess which makes it appealing plus it's got a retro vibe. Ace is great as a nickname AND it's also great when it's used as a legit forename. :-)

I had a baby boy, named him Ace, which is a different, strong, cool name, on 11.2.14, the same date you made the comment. Funny.
Portgas D. Ace is a character from the anime/manga One Piece (not Puma D. Ace as erroneously stated above.) He typically goes by Ace only. This name is much more of a nickname than an actual, legal name.
Ace Lightning, from the TV Series of the same name, was a video game character who came to life or something.Also the Dark Ace, from Storm Hawks, who I would like to lick all over.

Some names are so nice you wish you'd invented them yourself, and this for me is the ultimate example of such a name- it's beautiful.
Nice name maybe Ace James? But if you think about it, it'd be better as a nickname!

This is really listed here? Seriously? If any parent seriously gave their child the legal name of "Ace", they should immediately be arrested for being complete retards.
Ace Rimmer, the alter-ego of the character Arnold Rimmer in the TV series Red-Dwarf. Whose personality fits in perfectly with some of the above comments. Also the 'nickname' of the character Arnold Rimmer apart from smeghead.

Really infantile. I can't imagine a grown man going by 'Ace'.
It'd be cute on a dog, but I can't see why anyone would give this as a formal name to a human. A nickname, maybe; but putting 'Ace' on your kid's birth certificate is like putting 'Spike,' 'Fluffy,' or 'Uno,' down. Hell, might as well go with Fifi, if Ace ever gets a sibling.
To me, it sounds like the self-imposed nickname of a rather obnoxious and arrogant frat boy who thinks he's God's gift to women and the coolest person in the world. The name sounds quite infantile, and only works on young guys. Imagine this name on a 50-year-old guy who has really let himself go. I bet you find the thought amusing.
