| Both sound pretentious |
| I knew a Fletcher during childhood. His parents called him Cricket. |
| Whit. If you must. |
| I think Fletcher is pretty bad and Whitaker is okay |
This. All I think of is the movie Fletch. It's a horrible name. |
|
I graduated from high school with 2 fletchers, and just realized I haven’t met another since.
I’ve never heard of Whitaker. I think it sounds kind of stuffy, like it would be Whitaker Mandrake IV, heir to the pop tart empire. |
Plus the name fletcher always makes me think of felching. |
| One vote for Fletcher--it's a family name in my family so it's sentimental for me. |
+1 but if it’s your family name. Mom of an Erickson here. I like Fletcher better. It’s your name that’s the real difference. |
Same |
Bingo. I even read that in a smooth accent. Whitaker is a “country club name” to me. |
| Fletcher is a dog name. |
| Honestly, neither. But if I had to choose, I’d choose Whitaker. |
IDK Fletcher Cox is a pretty badass NFL player. I dont think anyone is beating him up. |
| A whit is a tiny thing, as in, "I don't give a whit, really, name your kid whatever you want." A fletcher makes arrows. If your last name is Henderson, go with Fletcher. |
