My grandson's name is Trent, I had never heard of the name. The name Trent was an old family name of his father's. My grandson is now 30 years old, he gets complements on his name often.
I've never actually heard of this name until fairly recently. I don't think it's bad. It has a nice sound, not complex at first glance, simple and to the point, and fairly uncommon. I would just prefer Brent a little more. Trent reminds me of the trenches.
My 3 year old son is named Trenton Alexander, we call him Trent for short. I love that it's unique and gets lots of compliments. It's not common and is definitely a stand out.
I am definitely naming my son Trent. I've always liked the name, and it sounds nice with a lot of the middle names I like. Plus, I just have a good impression with the name (unlike a lot of names, considering I've been shunned by half of a town before).
My husband's name is Trent Thomas. I think it's a very nice, strong name and it suits him well. I went to school with a few Trenton's but I've never met or heard of another Trent. I am probably biased but I like the sound of Trent better than Trenton. We're in our early twenties and the name definitely ages well. I love the name!

I think there's an actress named Trent Stewart, but it sounds like such a boy name!

This is my toddler's name and it fits him wonderfully. It has a good, strong feel to it and will age well. One of the appeals, for me, with this name was that it's a no-nickname name. It's perfect as is. (Michael) Trent Reznor and Trent Lane from Daria were the only figures I'd heard of with the name and I still chose it because, well, it's awesome.
Hmm, I associate this name with both the character Trent Lane from Daria and Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails. The former is the nice but hopelessly lazy brother of Daria's friend Jane. The latter makes me think of angst-ridden, extremely arrogant teenagers, as they seem to be the ones who really like NIN. I do think the band deserves less annoying fans, even though I'm not much of a fan of them myself. Some of their tracks are cool. I like the name well enough, but the associations aren't necessarily very great in my case!
Trent is my toddler's name; I think it's classy and unique, not an overused name. I like strong names. It means "torrent" and wow, he can be when he wants! (with the attitude)

I really adore Trent. I think that Trent is a cute nickname for Trenton. I adore both names. I think this is a name that truly ages well. It is a very soft name for a child. But then is has a strongness to it for a man. It will age very well for a man.

I like the name Trent. Can "Trent" be short for "Trenton", or can it just be "Trent"? Or just both?
It reminds me of the council of Trent during the counter-reformation, although I don't think there is a resemblance, the frontman for NIN is named Trent.

Trent sounds like a nice strong boys name, handsome and rugged.
