My son Gage Harrison was born Nov 27, 2020 and I have had the name Gage picked out since I was a young girl. Stephen King's "Pet Sematary" was the first King book I read and it was here that I fell in love with the name Gage. My husband found it a bit odd at first but loves the name now. We get compliments about the name almost daily. We find it to be a strong, masculine name.

My son's name is Gage Andrew. He was born in 2006. I got his name from Pet Sematary.He has one other child at his school with the name but spelled Gaige. He used to hate his name because it was different and you couldn't find it on anything. We are both big thriller movie buffs and when he was old enough I let him watch the movie. Once he found out how he got his name he thought it as cool. Now he wouldn't change it for the world. I still get compliments on his name and how unique it is.

I have never heard of 'Pet Cemetery' until just now haha. The name "Gage" is very uncommon, It'seems- I have only ever met one nice young man named Gage. We named our son after him when he committed to our home insurance case (after we had been bounced from office to office for hours on end).

We named our son Gage Alan on December 2, 1999!! We LOVE the name!! It means Pledge or Promise. We did NOT get the name from pet cemetery..what a stupid book! We found the name in a baby book & wanted something a little different because between us we have 25 nephe's! A few people have been "negative" about the name but most think It's great!! Would name him that again given'the chance!

My son's name is Gage, people think I got it from Pet Semetary, but I got it from a little boy I used to watch. My husbands name is Gabe, so people always say the wrong name all the time. I had one person tell me that they knew some one with the name Gage but spelled it Gaige....I thought that was very different.

My name is Gage, and I have no clue why you all think It's common. i've met maybe 5 other Gages in my life, all male. I'm a girl, so I have yet to meet a girl named Gage as well. My name was originally going to be Grey, but my mom didn't like it, so my dad decided on Gage, after Johnny Gage from emergency, a show in the 70`s that inspired him to become a paramedic, so take that, pet cemetery. I also receive lots of girly twists on my name because of how It's traditionally a male name. Gagey and Gagey poo are a couple common examples. But at least getting people to remember my name is easy, considering how uncommon it is for girls to be named Gage. I also feel like my name contributes to my tomboy personality. Whenever people hear Gage, they think of something tough, like a shotgun, but also trustworthy. Or pet cemetery. -_- I really like my name, I'm different, my friends say I'm a lunatic, and girly girls think I'm odd. I hate blending in, I like standing out. While I'm "special" I can also have honest discussions with my friends. There's no one quite like Gage!

My son's name is Gage. We don't usually tell people but my husband got it from the movie Pet Semetary. People always think we're saying Gabe. When'they realize It's really Gage we sometimes get an "oh!" like "I love it!" and sometimes we get an "ohhh" like "That's different"

Our last name is Gage and when our grandson was born, my daughter picked the name Gage for him. Seems like a very manly name.

I just saw that'someone else named their son Gage Christian which is what we named our son born on 10/11/10. We also didn't know that it was a name from the movie pet cemetery. Who cares! I love it! We have a son named Chase David as well.

Our son's name is Gage Matthew. My husband & I loved the name Gage when we saw Pet Semetary when it first came out in the late 80's early 90's. After 18 yrs, we finally got pregnant and have our son Gage!

My sons name is Gage and he will be 20 later this month. Up until a few years ago, we had not even heard of another person with the name, but now we are aware of 3 othe's. I love his name and it perfectly fits his uniqueness. And yes, his father and I got the idea from Pet Cemetery..lol

I named my second son Gage Lawrence. He was born August 23rd, 2020. I really didn't care if the name was used by Stephen King. We really liked the name Gage & it went well with the middle name we had picked out for him in honor of his uncle. We pronounce it like Gauge (the measurement for earrings). I am starting to realise its becoming more common now as well.
