Comments and insights on the name Parker

I have an eleven year old son who is named Parker. It is an incredibly strong name. He has an I.Q. that is at genius level. He is very sweet and easy going. He loves his name, no other kids in his classes have the same name. I think it really does work...it's a strong name and it's derivative of being a "park keeper" kind of insinuates that this will be a happy, kind hearted, somewhat laid back (in the good way) type of person. Which my son is. Parker Thomas. He is an amazingly talented and incredible person. I don't know if his name really has anything to do with that but it truly suits him.

My Parker's Middle name is Alexander.

Personal experiences with the name Parker

I have met two young Parkers. They are both very sweet boys.

My nephew is named Parker. Not my favorite, but he's a very sweet and energetic little boy who loves the Ninja Turtles.

My brothers name is Parker. When he was little he didn't like but I think now he's fond of it. It's unique but not too unique, and it fits his personality

It's not my given name, but my stage name as a drag king (Parker Tristin). But after i established it I heard a lot of good things about the name Parker (for a guy since it was a video from the youtube channel, Buzzfeed) saying it sounded like a cool (and sexy) name..but they never really met a guy with their first name being Parker.. so can we get some more guys named Parker here thank you ;) But I do like the idea from the meaning b/c it sounds like it can be someone who protects others that mean the most to them in their life.
