The sexiness of male names

Why is it that my name (Graham) makes this list twice, but is nowhere to be found on the personalized mugs and pencils that they sell in gift shops?

I met someone named Peter Johnson the other day and I admit for a second I thought “wow sexy name.”

Dear Already in Use: Your name is sexy. Hieronymus is also a sexy name. All those other ones are not sexy unless there are some women who are into viking porn. Which is not to say that viking porn doesn’t sound like it could be okay, it’s just that someone would have to be exposed to a large amount of it before those names would become eroticized and I just don’t think viking porn is out there in that kind of quantity.

Now I can’t stop thinking about viking porn. There actually should be more of it.

Thank heavens someone used my name at last.

Oops, I forgot one…

Bryn

The name of my Rugby coach when I was at Uni. A lilting Welsh accent, hotly whispering instructions in my ear on how to successfully take down an opponent…sigh.

Hey!
You should know what some of your English names sound like to people in Scandinavia. :slight_smile:
Anyway what’s wrong with Heiroglyph? I have this one Egyptian friend…

Ummmm… Rune smelts like iron in the forge Ummmm….

  • Rune

<gulp>

This post shivered me timbers. Granuaile, feel free to jot down a few pages of details and send 'em my way. :smiley:

Spencer.

it makes me think of Spencer Tracy, and boy was he a handsome man.

and then there’s Laurence. not Lawrence. but Laurence.
THIS makes me think of Laurence Olivier and GOD he was gorgeous.

i’d go along to say Humphrey, but honestly that name just makes me laugh, no matter how stunning Bogey was.

oh! Sky. Sky Masterson. now THERE’S a sexy name. swoon!

I also like Noah, Duncan, Jeremy and Patrick.

oh and Roman…for some reason, the idea of calling a guy “Rome” for short…i dunno man, it just sounds great.

Ethan
Lance
Cheyenne
Daniel

Double the innuendo, no wonder.
It seems that my name (Eric) is only good for high school crushes.

I’ll keep that in mind as I approach my mid-life crisis…

You don’t quite understand.

I know Ingmar Bergman is a man. That was a joke.

Ilsa Lund is the lead from Casablanca, played by Ingrid Bergman.

A Woman.
I Like Ingrid Bergman.

I am a guy.

I made my screen name Ingrid Bergman’s character’s name from Casblanca, because I like the movie, and the actress.

I also like Ingmar Bergman.

But not like that. I like his films.

Wow. I actually made the list in the OP. I need a cold shower now.

I think my name sounds sexier when pronounced “hav-ier” instead of “Xavier” or “Javier”

Thomas (my husband’s name, but I’ve always loved it.)
James
Jack
Kieran (my son’s name)

Spanish sounding names are wonderful, Javier, Miguel, etc.

Rhys is definitely sexy, as is Griffith. Yum, Welsh names!

The Romans had the best names ever. Aurelian, Seneca, Tiberius, Julian, Cato, Domitian, Tetricus, Titus, Nero, Lucius, Vespasian, Trajan, Valerian, Hadrian, Diocletian, Lucan, Saturninus, Valentinian, etc. etc.

Hell yeah! Especially ultra-cheesy Wagnerian Viking porn. Although historically accurate Viking porn would be cool too.

Why is ‘peter’ another name for a knob in the USA?

I find it bloody offencive, what with my first name being…

Thing?!?

I like some variations on Alex. Like Alec… or Alexei. Mmm, yes, Alexei. And I have a strange thing for Seamus… it sounds much better than it looks.

Those old-school British names that are now almost always female are strangely attractive… i.e. Ashley, Evelyn, Vivian, Aubrey, and Leslie. I don’t know why. Possibly they drudge up images of vaguely Austen-like heroes.

Other sexy names:

Michael
Julian
Damian
Shea
James

I like unique names, for the most part–Michael is an exception, I suppose.

Hmmm… my first name doesn’t make the list although the shortened version of it made it once. The only mention of my middle name is that it’s so unsexy it needs to go sit with Chip. All this time I thought I wasn’t getting the women because of how I look and acted, and it’s really only my unsexy name! :smiley:
