Brock

This is my name! I was named it because it was my mom's last name before she got married. So if my mom's last name was kept, I would've been 'Brock Brockmeijer!'

To be honest, in my opinion, this name is actually pretty fire. This "Brock" is in my class at school, and he is really cool. I don't suggest posting any lame comments about this guy (please don't).

This is my future son's name and I absolutely love it! It's a handsome boy name and it's unique, back off haters!

GREATEST NAME EVER. I'M NOT EVEN NAMED BROCK. It's masculine and strong. I love the name.

When I hear this name, it reminds me of a character 90s sitcoms who is one of the popular kids that is mean as hell but also corny by today's standards. Secondly it reminds me of the movie Brave where their last name is DunBrock and that evokes the image of brutish strength and hyper masculinity (Not in a bad way).

As I've said before though, don't let that stop you from being a good Brock. They're out there!

I don't personally know anyone named Brock but it seems like a very chad name. If their last name started with a C then their first and last names would be in alphabetical order. Of course the name would be entirely ruined if there was an E in their middle name, for example Edward or Evan. Anyway, if you meet someone named Brock be sure that their middle name doesn't start with E or they are bad news.

Sounds like the noise a pterodactyl would make.

Ew, what a horrible name.

Sounds like "frock", the dress that girls wear.

I really don’t like this as a first name because of how it sounds or looks.

I liked this name but now all I can think of is the monster known as Brock Turner. It sounds too much like Broccoli, as well.

My brother's name is Brock, and I really hate his name. He was called Broccoli, Brocklate Chip Cookie, and Brockasaurus Rex sometimes as a nickname. There's also the annoying Pokémon character named Brock. He was so annoying crushing on Nurse Joy and other girls. My brother also didn't like that character. My dad thought it was such a cool name, I don't understand why. I really love my brother though, I'd die for him.

I used to think of the Pokemon character (whom I thought was really annoying), but now it's got the much worse association with that spoiled white privilege rapist Brock Turner. I can't stand this name, and it sounds really douchey to boot.

Gives me the impression of a self-absorbed high school jock, kind of like Chad. Also reminds me of Brock Turner.
Other than that, I just don't like the sound of it.

Out of all the names, this? It’s unique but personally not attractive.

Sorry Brocks, but it's an astonishingly ugly name.

Brock, for me, is a great name. It fits someone who is strong and courageous. I recommend naming your child this if you plan on raising them to be a badass.

It sounds like a belch to me.

I really don't care for the name. Can't stand it!

I've never met a single Brock who was a jock in my life, hell I've never actually met another Brock other than myself in my life. And speaking of the jock thing I am the most introverted, quiet, and lazy Brock you will ever meet. Though you probably won't.

I love this name! It's such a strong name!

Not just the broccoli association or even the character from Pokemon, Brock sounds like a sound a bird would make. Like some tropical bird; parot, McCaw, tucan etc

"Brooooock!"

Like many others I think of Brock off Pokémon and the wrestler Brock Lesnar...

I respect this name as a perfectly fine surname. I think its meaning of 'badger' is rather endearing and in that sense makes it go along with all the other animal names (names meaning things like bear, wolf, lion, lamb, etc).

However, I personally hate this as a first name because of how it sounds and looks. The sound is just too short, clipped, and harsh for me. I like strong masculine names, but this is just too 'sharp'-sounding, and it makes it awkward somehow. It is not what I would call a "strong masculine name". The fact that it rhymes with, and is unfortunately now often identified with, stereotypical 'jocks' only makes me like it even less (this is partly because it only came into use as a first name in the past couple decades). It also has the feeling and association of being an "American" and trendy name. Meaning no offense to those with this name or who like it, of course, but I think this name is better left as a surname and not used a first name.

I'm genuinely confused as to why people like this name. Maybe this is a secret to the older generations, but to teenagers this name is a stereotypical name for a super-popular dumb-as-nails jock. Just like Chad and anything else the popular guys in movies are always named.

I find this a very good, strong name for a boy, not too common, not too harsh. Of course, a lot of people seem to be negatively associating this name with the Pokemon character, but I used to watch Pokemon when I was a little girl, and I seriously don't think that's a bad thing.

My eldest son's name is Brock, and I think it is an amazing name. I've had so many people tell me that it makes them think of someone who is strong, smart, handsome and kind. My sister calls him the strong B-Rock, because he 'takes care' of his little cousins (she has only girls), I think it's great.

I like the name Brock. It's different than what is popular today but it's not weird. But it's still an okay name.

I never liked this name, especially after it became associated with the Pokémon character. It makes me think of how Brock fell in love with pretty much every girl he encountered.

I really dislike the sound of it but I'm a big UFC fan and Brock Lesnar has changed my impression somewhat. I think it's a very strong and masculine name but the sound is unfortunately still rather unattractive.

This name makes me think of Pokemon.

There is this kid I know his name is Brock. When a friend of mine said his name I thought she said "rock". Brock is a dumb name, and I'm sorry, but, I suggest that you don't name your child this name.

My boyfriend of 8 years is Brock and I love it, he also loves it, we had friends who wanted to name their child Brock, and my boyfriend if he has his way would like to name our child Brock Jr. I think it is a good strong name.

No offense, but this name sounds like the name of a very dumb, muscular, über-masculine guy.

I don't really care one way or the other about the name Brock, but in my math class, we have a kid named Brock. Everyone calls him "Brock-the-Rock" and I think it is kinda cool but funny. Sometimes people call him "Block" too which is kinda annoying. One thing I definitely don't like about the name Brock is that it sounds too much like "Block" which reminds me of legos. Yea hope that helped somebody decide whether or not to name their kid Brock!

It's the sound a chicken makes "Brock, Brock, Brock" lol.

This name has a very unpleasant sound to it. Like you're choking. On a piece of broccoli, perhaps.

The broccoli comment is SO original! That may have been the most CLEVER little comment I've ever seen! Give yourself a pat on the back! I think it's a damn fine name. Obviously.

I think Brock is a pretty nice name, although I can see WHY people might think of broccoli when they hear it. The way she said it was pretty stupid, though, if you ask me.

This name makes me think of the Pokemon character.
