User Comments about the name Neil
Comment left Aug 15, 2008: "I get people trying to spell it Neal, and I tell them that Neals are idiots. I wondered if Neil Armstrong had anything to do with the popularity around the time I was born (1972). Didn't even think of Young or Diamond." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left May 29, 2008: "Borne in recent years by American astronaut Neil Armstrong, who in 1969 became the first man to land on the Moon, and by songsters Neil Diamond and Neil Young, American and Canadian respectively. Unfortunately, this once-popular boy's name is mainly restricted to dads and grandfathers these days. Nevertheless, it sounds fresh and innovative when used for a young girl, just like all them other old mannish names ripe for female adoption, such as Wayne and Gary and Roy and Stanley."
