If you had a boy...

I wouldn't because my surname starts with an R and would sound horrendous with 'Ralph'.

Also it makes me think of that appalling film with John Goodman - King Ralph.

It just reminds me of the old saying when you're about to be SICK everywhere:

"Would you be kind enough to excuse me for a moment, old chap ? I'm just popping off to say hello to Ralph and Huey"

When its morphed into "Rafe" (or is it Raif) It aint so bad, but RALPH just sounds knobbish

Isn't Raef (another spelling variation) seen as more poncy than Ralph surely?

Ralph makes me think of Ralph Wiggum, or Ralph the keyboard player from the Muppets funk band. So no, I wouldn't want it for my kid, but for one of my mates' kids so I can laugh at them.

Ralph Fiennes ( Rafe ) is pretty cool and a damn good actor to boot.

Got my first one due in Dec. Names will be Lincoln or Imogen. Thought about Ralph but my concern over Happy Days and the missus reckoning it´s too trendy took it out the equation.

Are you pronouncing it Rafe or Ralph? Rafe is f***ing pretentious but Ralph is a good old fashioned name
