Is Dana a dumb name for a guy?
Would a guy named Dana get made fun of in junior high? What do teen boys think of this name? Is it too girly? Would a guy named Dana on the wrestling team be laughed out of the gym? How about the football team? When would the teasing start, preschool?

Uhhh... to me, it's a girls' name. You shouldn't name a boy that. It's a pretty name... for a girl. But if you're a guy and you're stuck with it, then just shorten it to Dan. c:
This name means knowlegable... It doesn't mean pretty princess..... It's not a type of flower.... It means knowlegable.
He may get made fun of by a few stupid kids but if the bullying got that bad, he could change it to Dan. The bullying wouldn't start until at least year 2 because preschoolers wouldn't be "smart" enough to make fun of him for being called Dana.
My friend Dana is a guy and he was on the football team this was over 15 years ago, people never made fun of him. He was very popular
I actually know more guys named Dana than girls, so I don't think he will have that big of a problem(: But If he does, then he can just go by Dan!
Hope I helped(:
What is more important is how it would look professionally. Everyone needs a formal form of their name!
Dan would be fine. I just find Dana odd because I know two girls named Dana...
I know a few guys named Dana. If you feel like they will get picked on ask the teachers to call him Dan until he's old enough to ask them himself. I think it's cute.
In junior high, or even high school people will always do their best to try to tease someone. Whether it is by their name or by their attributes or by how they act. There will always be someone that will use your name and think it sounds dumb or stupid. If you don't think it is though, don't mind them. If you do, no one will tease you for asking your teacher to call you something else, like Dan or Daniel.
And trust me, if they don't make fun of you for your name, they will do their best to find something else to make fun of you.
yeah they would get bullied. maybe Dane (Dane sounds similar but more masculine) instead of Dana, Dana is a girls name. yeah dont name anything with a penis Dana.
yeah its kinda weird, he can just go by dan or danny though, name him on what he looks like his name should be, not what you think would be a cool baby name.
If he hates it he'll just go by Dan. If not, then it's no problem.
