It's always been a guilty pleasure of mine. I think it's especially associated with Freud amongst people with a higher education level. Otherwise, it just sounds like a cool name. Thankfully, I think it's becoming less associated with Freud over time, as more people are starting to reclaim names with negative connotations - like Ophelia, Lucretia, Sampson, Morgana, Lilith, Pandora, Aryan, Lazarus, Hannibal, Lucifer, for instance.

I love it! Ziggy is an adorable nickname.
I'm sure most people in the country aren't as familiar with Sigmund as they are with Freud.

For me it's very associated with Freud. I think much of it has to do with my senior high school (is that what it's called?) which was psychology oriented. Each student belonged to a specific class, and those classes were named after famous people. My class was Rosa Parks, but there were also Freud, Astrid Lindgren, Suu Kiy etc. And we talked/read a lot about Freud since it was psychology oriented. I probably wouldn't associate the name with Freud if it hadn't been for this school.
I don't really like Ziggy as a nickname. Maybe just Sig?
