Does this name work or does it make you think of anything?
Without telling too much info, my husband noticed a rude connotation of this name with our surname. We still like the name but now I worry people will think of it as rude (especially because I stupidly told a few people!) and think we are stupid for using it. It would probably not be an issue until teen years (teenage boys probably being the worst for teasing!)

I giggled, but I’m childish 😂🙈 I’m not sure kids would pick up on anything these days though 🤷🏻♀️
Ha see this is the thing, it’s so split! Some people see it straight away and others have no idea! The question is whether we still use it and don’t care!
I’d use it, own it 😂
I have no idea what this connection could be 😂 so i'd say yes it's a lovely name
Right, now I need to know 😂
It’s at least a flattering euphemism, but I personally wouldn’t risk using it
@Emily Johnson is slang for penis
I’ve honestly never head anyone under the age of 60 refer to a penis as Johnson 😂
@Emily it’s also mostly an American thing. Outdated and American but something some people still know about hence my slight hesitation!
