My son's name is Paul. Every Paul I knew was really a great person, very nice. he's not small. he's 6 foot 4 inches, 220 pounds.
I like my name only becasue it is rarely shortened (never by people who expect to speak with me again). Other than that - not a great name. St. Paul may have been a good man - but not the'sort of fella one wants to hang out with.
My Boyfriend's Name Is Paul. He Is Named After His Mother Paulette. I Like His Name But When We First Started Talking I Used To Pick At Him. But Now I'm Used To It.
Paul is a timeless and very versatile name. Everywhere in the world there are people with this name (with different spelling, obviously). It'sounds really good - it has a positive feel to it. I really like that name!
Well, my name is Sabrina and i've only met about 5 other people with my name. i love it because It's not too common but known enough that people pronounce it correctly
The letter "X" had an influence from the arabic language and that is why the pronunciation of all the "X" became "J" in Spanish or "H" in English. Per example, Mexico, Mejico, Javier, Xavier, Ximena, Jimena. Therefore, the old phonetic pronunciation is "ks", and the most common is "J" in Spanish, "H" in English. Both pronunciation are right.
I love my name Paul but the only thing wrong with it is that you can make so much fun of it: "Polywog," "Pollyanna," "Polygon," "Super Polygrip," and on, and on. Can be a tough name to have as a kid because of this. But I still like it and I'm still proud to have it as my name.
I am fine with my name, but the thing I hate is that it is too common.
I agree that It's a beautiful name but I'm sure there ARE millions of them *lol*. It's an old biblical name, used consistently through the centuries and still going strong. It is my husband's name as well.
Since I changed my name to Paul I haven't killed a single person.
I know 5 Pauls and every single one of them is short, like really short. I think its funny. But its a nice name too
Paul Paul Paul. I love that name....Paul. WEEEEEEEE I love Paul Isn't it great❤️❤️❤️ Ok sorry about that. Now my real opinion.....Paul is a biblical person, and Paul is an easy name to say...for most people, and is great. Paul is not a name thats easy to be made fun of, so bullies can't really make fun of you using your name. Now I understand and I'make fun of the people that used to make fun of me. "LOL" OK Bye. *Paul PS:// If you don't like Paul..........Never Mind.
awesome name, everyone can pronounce it and there are not millions of them. old name, but you don't have to be old to have it.
some people have said that paul is an old name...it is BUTTTT~~~~~ all the pauls i know are young and im talking 2020 baby!
I'm glad that my parents named me Paul, since that is what everyone calls me.
I love the name Paul. Classic, strong, undeniably male.
I love the name Paul, as It's the name of my fiancı. I just love the way It'sounds when I say his name. Our son will have his father's first name as his middle name. This is because we wanna give him his grandfather's first name as his first name too - Hugh.
I got stuck with the name. My mother chose it because it could not be shortened. I do not like the Biblical connotations given'that I am not Christian.
Paul, a man who is addictive and unforgettable. Someone who a woman, since a girl, has always desired to be close to. Distance is his kryptonite, and he will be yours. He is intelligent, sarcastic, and has an infectious laugh. Plays the guitar, has a crystalline voice which infects your veins with fluttering dragonflies. He is the one that was so close, yet got away for reasons you don't understand. His memory brings to mind Neruda poetry and hot summer nights.

At one point we had many variations in my family of the name Paul. My father and my brother is named Paul. Paul's wife is named Paula as is my aunt on my mother's side. My sister was dating a man named Paul as was I.
Paul Evan Aarons is the best man in the world. ~Love you Paul ~~~~~Courtenay Noelle Colton~~~~
To add on to someone elses idea, i think Madalyn and Addison are good names so then you can call them Maddie and Addie.
It is funny. The name Paul means small but I am over three hundred pounds and six foot two. But I love the name. It makes me more inter'sted in Paul from the Bible.
my dad brother and neighbour are all called paul i think it is a great name because it is a manly name
well i enjoy my name because it is unique and people always say, WoW that is very pretty i've never heard that before!" Yes, people always mispronounce, but i have learned to enjoy that about my name. No i hardly no anyone with my name.
Very original and rare... Loove it! Not to mention the joy of sharing it with great people like Patti Smith. Or the pleasure of having a unisex nickname like PAT (very useful to have a unisex nickname, beli've me!)
I have not met many Pauls in my life. It is my Grandfather's name and my Uncle's name and they both started with little and died millionaires. St Paul in the Bible was a powerful cat, and wrote the most powerful parts of the Bible. I am a Paul too, I'm not a millionaire in dollars, but I have a life that is rich and rewarding beyond normal expectations. Like St Paul, the first part of my life was not so wonderful, but it ends up that all that 'bad' part was necessary to become the great guy I am today. My name has been a powerful and positive influence in my life. It is a good name to have, and a super great name to live up to.
I love this name!!! I love Paul!!! he's sexy! :P <3 Paul Coronado!!!
My son is named Paul. No questions about spelling and pronunciations. People often seem to have a positive association with the name and comment that their dad or uncle is named Paul.
Greatest name on Earth, Paul is definitely the manliest most attractive most super-hero-esque name'since James (Bond that is!)
