It rhymes with a swear word. I don't think it's a good idea.

I like it... somehow. I wouldn't use it though, because there is a certain teasing potential. It sounds cute though, and the Huckleberry stories are great. It wouldn't be usable though where I live, because we it's rather a last name.

I like Huxley, too, though I am not the biggest fan of the "x".

Sorry, but no. It sounds like coughing.

Sorry, I can't get behind any name (Huckleberry, Tucker) that could be shortened (Huck, Tuck) to something that rhymes with the f word. That's just way too tempting for the child's peers to resist, lol.

No, no and no again. Sorry!

Not a fan and it really doesn't work as a child's name for so many reasons.
Finn would be much better (Huckleberry Finn)

I do understand the appeal. The idea is similar to Jack, and its woodsy and pleasant. Huckleberry is just too much, and I don't think Huck needs a full name if you'd like to use it.

I really like the idea of Henry "Huck" and think it goes well with Myrtle and Vance, but here are some other ideas (stretches?) for first names:

---

Hector
Howard
Harris / Harrison
Habacuc
Hammond
Harold
Harvey
Hubrecht
Humphrey
Horatio

Huck, huck, bo buck, banana fanna fo-

No, I don't.

I'd go with Huckleberry as a middle name. Huck as a first name is just too close to a four letter word for my comfort.

I don't think Huck or Huckleberry or any Huck name should go on a birth certificate. I'm also wary of using Huck as a nn because of what it rhymes with.

I like Huck, but only as a nickname. It shouldn't be on a birth certificate. I'd pick my favorite boys' name that begins with an H and then call him Huck. Who says you can't? There's no law against it.

Huck is just awful. I don't know how people ever got to thinking it, and Huckleberry, was a good name for a real person, but it seems to be a hipster-Hollywood favorite just now.
It sounds like some poor person coughing on a piece of food in their throat.

I love Huckleberry nn Huck too. It might also work as a nn for Harvey or Harold, or you could put Huckleberry in the mn slot.

I almost named a dog Huck. Then i thought about what it was like to yell it. I decided it was to much like F*ck to use. If it was short for something, you could yell the full name instead. If not yelled, I like it as a full name.

---

Other full name suggestions:
Herman
Harley
Harper
Hubert
Humbert

I think Huck works by itself as a full name. I wouldn't complicate it by making it into a nickname. You could MAYBE use it as a full name for Henry, since it's similar to Hank.

I really don't like the name Huck since it brings the word Hunk into my head and that just sounds like I big old hairy man (or the Hulk).
However... I think Huckle is a really cute name and Huck is not as bad if its just a nickname for Huckle.
Also, this is just my opinion, if you love it then go for it! Do what makes you happy!!

Nope. Rhymes with F***. Puts a name automatically out for me. Huckleberry makes me think of dingleberry. Not a great image. Huckle is a little better, but it just makes me think of chuckle and I can't get that out of my head.

I think Huck as a nickname is the best option if you feel you must use it, for what, I am not sure. Huxley sounds like the best option but doesn't go well with your other kids and appears trendy.

I have never seen the appeal of Huck. It seems so hillbilly to me. I does not pair well with Myrtle and Vance.

Henry "Huck" is much more interesting. I think Henry, Myrtle and Vance sound nice together. I don't find Henry any more boring than Vance (Vance has become quite popular here)

I love Huck as well and I think it works well as a name. :)

Not in my book. What about Henry? Even if you always call him Huck, at least he has a more adult fallback option if he wants it (he may or may not, I just think it should be an option)
