When i think of a Wallace, i think of a buck-toothed kid with a lollipop bigger than his head, overalls, and a propeller hat to top it off. I'm not fond of this name, to say the least.
I love the name Wallace. It just rolls off the tongue very nicely, and it's very handsome. Sort of unrelated, I also quite like the combination George Wallace.
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, Omega Ruby, & Alpha Sapphire, Wallace is the Water-type Gym Leader of Sootopolis City. In Pokémon Emerald, he is instead the Champion of the Hoenn Region.
At first, I found this name absolutely deplorable. Now, after some thought… I actually love it! It has some charm and music to it, unlike other names. Plus, it’s not common anymore. For what reason, I don’t understand why. If this is your name, please don’t hate it. If my name wasn’t William, I’d go for Wesley or Wallace. Wallace is a cool and handsome name that I’m jealous of. Wear it with pride!
My first name is Wallace. I've hated it my whole life. It's made me feel weird my whole life. The alternative is Wally, which sounds like a little kid's name. Parents, please don't name your baby Wallace. It's fine as a surname, but awful as your first name. Stick with ordinary names.
It's literally the word "Walrus". So don't name your kid this or else they will turn into a walrus and trust me, you don't want to be a walrus. They're fat, loud, scary-looking, and even fat. Wallace is a 2/10 name for me but that's just my opinion but it could be yours too or not but it's still my opinion *insert mad face emoji right here*
Alfred Russel Wallace was a British naturalist, explorer, geographer, anthropologist, biologist and illustrator. He is best known for independently conceiving the theory of evolution through natural selection; his paper on the subject was jointly published with some of Charles Darwin's writings in 1858.
Horrible. Wallace is such an ugly old man name. The nickname Wally does sound younger, but it's goofy-sounding and awful as well. I think any boy with this hideous name would be teased a lot.

Wallace, although derivative of the name 'Wales' the meaning of the name Wallace is 'Of Wales' or 'Welshman', William Wallace himself was of Welsh descent, hence his surname. So the surname is both Welsh & Scottish but of English spelling.
Wallace Henry Hartley (June 2nd 1878 - April 15th 1912) was the band master on the RMS Titanic, and famously went down playing 'Nearer My God to Thee'.
Wallace Reid (b. April 15, 1891) was a silent film star and a famous bearer, though his birth name was William Wallace Reid. He was one of the most popular leading men of the 1910s and early 1920s, but after a 1919 accident he became addicted to morphine, leading to his early demise in 1923.
When I think of this name, I think of the blue-haired, flamboyantly gay Pokemon gym leader named Wallace. I went to school with a guy who has this as his middle name, but it's not like he looks like a teenager anyways.
Wallace is one half of the dynamic duo, "Wallace and Gromit": a clamation series created by Aardman. Wallace is the wacky inventor who loves cheese, and Gromit is his practical and loyal dog. I felt the need to clarify from the above comment :)
