[Opinions] wdyt of Gamaliel?
Is it "too much" for a boy now? I really like it as a fn, and I have good associations with it, but I'd like to know what others think of it too. Would it be better as a fn or mn in your opinion? Wdyt of it just in general?

I think it would probably be better as a middle name. If it is used as a first name, I recommend pairing it with a less unusual middle name, so that he has the option of using something more common. I do like it, though. :)-- Sarah

I think of Warren G. Harding (G for Gamaliel!), who was extremely corrupt. On that basis, I dislike it.Array

She had fallen against the windows, which were pressed against the windows, which were pressed against the old oak near across the age of the old Aunt Sophronia--was almost dreadful enough to walk on. A revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having.

I actually really like it for a boy. In general I adore Bibical names and this is no exception! I think it might work better as a middle name next to another Bible name that's a bit more reconized like Asher Gamaliel or Jonah Gamaliel, Isaiah, Nathan, Josaiah, Elijah, Abel, Levi, Daniel, David, Samuel, Adam. WDYT?Also when used as a first name it could get the nickname Gamey which isn't very pleasant.
I hope this helps!
