do you think of a hispanic/latino guy?
My blonde hair/blue eyed german friends are naming their son to be Freddy and I can't laughing for some reason. :-( :-( :-( They have one daughter named Madeline.
Madeline and Freddy!!!! ;D ;D ;D

When I hear "Freddy" I think of a blonde haired or red haired white dude.

No. Freddy makes me think of Frederick or Freiderich and makes me think of a German guy.
Oh. And then I reread your post and saw your friends ARE German. So, totally acceptable.

Yes, only because the only Freddy I know is hispanic. He worked for me and was the biggest asshole ever. That name is forever ruined for me.

I think of Freddie Prinze. So yeah, I'm with you on the line of thinking.
And I'm now officially old
ETA: I looked up Freddie Prinze, and it turns out his dad was German. So it all makes sense!

I also think of Freddy Krueger.
I do not like the name Freddy. Even if I didn't associate it with Freddy Krueger. I like Madeline.

Is Freddy short for Frederick? I don't see what's so strange about it.
