Comment left Jun 26, 2008: "Future son's name. So manly. It makes me all melty inside." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Apr 25, 2008: "Our 11 month old son is named Grant. I was a school teacher and wanted a name that was not too common, but was easy to spell and pronounce. The comment we get from most people when they hear our son's name is "Oh, that is my grandpa's name." We have heard this about 10 times so far. I consider the name a classic, but others think it is an old man name." (Report as inappropriate)
