We named our son this. He’s 4 now. Randomly chosen from a name website. Most people seem to really love it and a few hate it. But very few seem to not have a strong opinion about it. We usually call him Bookie but will probably go back to Booker when he’s older.
George Clooney's character on the sitcom Roseanne (season 1) was named Booker Brooks.

This name doesn't sound pleasant to me. Any way I try to say it, it sounds awful. Ooker just sounds very unpleasant to me.

Better suited as a surname. I remember my second grade teacher was Mrs. Booker.

I agree with the person that said they were surprised this wasn't in the top 1000. Surnames as first names are so trendy right now, even for girls(awful). I don't think this name is that bad honestly, and a little boy named Booker would certainly stand out from the crowds of Masons, Madisons, and Tylers.
It's a very old-fashioned name, and it rhymes with 'hooker'. Some people would pronounce it as ''BOO-kah'', which would be absolutely atrocious. It's not a nice-sounding name anyway.
Hilarious!
