[Opinions] Crosby
Just popped into my head. What would you think if someone named their kid Crosby? Boy OR girl. Also, what middle name would you pair it with?

My husband's cousin named his son this. Not sure of the middle name, though it was also a surname. I found it really stupid and hipsterish
I like this. On a different site, though, a person was considering it and a lot of people said it'd be a bad idea because it's too close to Cosby... I just like it because it reminds me of Bing and jazz as well as Fanny and hymns, but I can understand the hesitance now.
I like it on a boy as a first name, and I'm strangely not opposed to it on a girl as a middle name. Jane Crosby, Esther Crosby, Rosalie Crosby, Olivia Crosby... Yeah, I could get behind that.
Crosby Victor
Crosby Jules
Crosby Henrik
Crosby Ulysses
Crosby Omar
Crosby Nathan
Crosby Mae
Crosby Ingrid
Crosby Felicia
Crosby Mairead
Crosby Audra
Crosby Tallulah (I usually don't care for Tallulah, but I oddly kind of dig this)

My first thought was of Bing Crosby. My second thought was that my first thought is probably just showing my age.
I think the first syllable is unattractive. If I met someone with this name I'd assume they had it because it's a family surname. If someone must be named Crosby, I'd far prefer that person be a male than a female.

We have a client at my job with a daughter named Crosby. I would think they were extremely white and wealthy, and I'd be correct in this scenario. I can't remember what her middle name is but I'll keep you posted. I think she has siblings too.
Yup, a girl named Crosby (3) with an older sister McKenna (4).
