Help[Opinions] Palmer?
This name has been on my mind lately, and I think it's a sweet name for a boy. What do you think? Is it too last-namey? Can you think of any good combos for the name Palmer?

So maybe I'm weird but it's the truth....

Palmer is a surname and nothing more

I have a little cousin named Palmer, so I have a good association. He's a great kid, and pulls it off very well. I like it because of him.

Usually, I dislike using surnames as first names unless they relate to actual surnames in the child's ancestry.
I also dislike using surnames such as Tyler or Porter because they're occupational, and the kid so named probably won't be a tiler or a porter!
But although Palmer means a person who returned from the Crusades with a palm branch, it can be interpreted nore widely as "pilgrim" so it actually gets my vote as a first name!
It's very pleasant-sounding.
