Montgomery Grant
Montgomery Andrew
Montgomery Quinn
Montgomery Jones
Montgomery Thomas
Montgomery Vincent
Montgomery Isaac
Montgomery John
Montgomery Cain
Montgomery Michael "What matters most is how well you walk through the fire." -Charles Bukowski

I think Montgomery is alright. It's part of the name of a chain of department stores, so that's my initial association, other than "surname". Of your combos, I best like Montgomery Vincent and Montgomery Isaac.

It's just too long and pompous. Also, I grew up buying stuff from "Monkey Ward" so that's a pretty powerful association.

I like Montgomery, it's very dignified really isn't it?! I like James, Andrew, Quinn, Thomas, Vincent, Isaac and John as mns.

It makes me think of ... I dunno ... forties films, street-posh, brick-estate, hardboiled ... it's characterish. It has that appeal.Personally I always liked it ... except the GUMRY part? I guess. I liked smart quick MONTE, or Monty, and the fact that Montgomery was hidden behind it. But I like it hidden. The glottal stop in it next to the G, in my accent, is pretty darned insufferable. Mun(k)umry. It's only because I know the hotshotty Euro spelling, that it ever seemed okay.Montgomery Grant is pretty good.
Montgomery ... Franklin, Orrin, Walter.
