It makes me think of a dude who loves partying at the beach with his friends and gets all the babes but is an a**hole to almost everyone of the same gender he comes across and pushes them into lockers calling them losers.
I like my name.I also find it interesting how some of the people saying that it's a douchebag name are leaving rude comments about it, which in turn makes THEM the douchebag. I'm actually not obnoxious in person, nor a "frat boy". I'm an introvert. I literally don't mess with a single person. People mess with me because I'm quiet. I see others as being douchebags at times.I'm actually quite generous.
Not a fan of this ultimate frat-boy name. I also dislike the longer name Bradley. I'm glad that Brad/Bradley doesn't seem popular anymore.

Too bad you all feel you have to judge a name like you do. Condemning someone on a name just shows your shallowness and education. I'm proud of my name, meaning a vast meadow.
In 2018, 35 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Brad* who is registered male with the Social Security Administration. It is the 604th most common male first name for living U.S. citizens. *as a first name, not a nickname.

I never liked that name. It reminds me of Brad Pitt who is the most annoying celebrity alive.
I really like the sound of the name Brad. I like it a lot as a nickname for the name Bradley. :)

Like it as a Nickname for Bradley, on it's own it's ok I guess.

Brad was given to 99 baby boys born in the US in 2012. It sounds kind of dated and unfitting for an old man to me, you're best just sticking to Bradley.

Brad Davis (1949-1991) was an American actor famous for his role in βMidnight Expressβ. He also starred in βRootsβ and βSybilβ. He died of AIDS at age 41.
Since Braden means 'from the broad valley', Bradford means 'from the broad ford', Bradley means 'from the broad meadow', Bradwell means 'from the broad spring', and Brady means 'from the broad isle', doesn't Brad technically mean 'broad'? =D.

Famous bearer: actor Brad Dourif, who portrayed Grima Wormtongue in The Lord of the Rings: the Two Towers and The Lord of the Rings: the Return of the King.

Previously mentioned, actor Brad Dourif, who appeared in Ragtime, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, David Lynch's Dune, and most famously the voice of the killer doll Chuckie.
I think Brad is the male eqivalent to Sarah, completely over-used.
