Comments and insights on the name Francis

Very, very unattractive name.

This is such a classic name. It sounds so strong, handsome and compassionate! Anyone would be proud to have such a strong, namesake.

Sounds too girly.

It's an amazing name and all of you are wrong. (Except for the person who called it a classic and handsome name. You are so right.)

Personal experiences with the name Francis

He's a French git, he has way to much body hair. It's disgusting, and he's a frog face, Ugh I hate him- it was especially horrid when we had an arranged marriage it was terrible. He flirts way too much with everyone, and it's atrocious. He's also pansexual, and I do not like him!! ~Arthur Kirkland

Dude, are you sure. Your blushing heavily.~ Alfred F. Jones
