[Opinions] Archie
WDYTO Archie?Archie used to be my number one favourite name! I have to say though, the TV series adaptation of Archie Comics, Riverdale, is ruining it for me.Bonus question: Do you like Riverdale? I went along with the first season, but after that it just got... really bad.http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/170369

Archie Bunker ruins it for me far more than Archie Andrews.

I loved the first season of Riverdale (that funeral scene, man), but then I got to the first episode of season 2 and it was like the magic was gone, haven't watched it since. I think season 1 wrapped up the story so nicely, it's like what's the point anymore?I hate the NN Archie. Like Millie said it makes me think of bratty little punks, and just the sound of it is unpleasant. But surprisingly Archibald has grown on me.

I haven’t watched Riverdale, so I can’t comment on that. But I do love Archie. It’s such a fun, playful sounding name. I imagine a little boy running around outside, coming home covered in mud with scuffed knees, and a huge smile. If I didn’t care about popularity, I would gladly use it.

Archie is popular in Britain so I was kind of over it because when I was training to be a teacher over there it felt like I met many little Archies in schools and nurseries. And, to be brutally honest, they were almost always naughty little sh*ts.
I've never watched Riverdale.

I don't love it, but I don't hate Archie either. Archie Bunker is the first thing that comes to mind not Archie comics or Riverdale.I'd probably be more likely to use Archie as a pet name then on a human, but that's me.Never saw Riverdale, nor do I have the slightest interest in seeing it.

All I can think of is Archie Bunker, not Riverdale or the Archie comics, even though those are probably much better known then Archie Bunker is now. Was never a big fan of the name and thinking about it, I don't think I like it now at all. Not a fan of Riverdale.

Hi!Archie reminds me of the Secret Garden. I LOVE the Secret Garden, the book and musical. I don't like the name much.
