Would you say something to someone if they had one daughter named Isabelle and were planning to name the second one Elizabeth?
What if they had a son named Eric and and planned on naming their new daughter Erica? |
No. |
| No, MYOB. My cousin named her child Hannah Grace and I said not a word. Maybe it's intentional. |
| Only if it was my husband planning to do this. If not, it would be none of my business no matter what I thought. |
I had a friend in school named Hannah. Took forever for her parents to figure out she was dyslexic, she was spelling her name backwards. |
| Why? We know people whose children are Victor and Victoria. Anyone else old enough to remember the movie? |
Yes, I looove that movie! "Le Jazz Hot..." James Garner was very good looking back then. BTW... I'm only 40, but I saw that movie in the theatre! I don't know what my mom was thinking. |

OP here. I wasn't thinking of saying anything but someone else did.
I knew a set of twins named Gerald and Geraldine. Gerry and Gerri. |
I love this movie too, although I don't know why. Alex Karras, James Garner, Julie Andrews, Robert Preston coming out? Wait,now I've got it-Leslie Ann Warren portraying the perfect gangster tart. I've got two sisters that I love very much. One has a son named Alexander, one has a daughter named Alexandria. We laugh about it. We all love each other. MYOB!!!!! |
| What about people who name their children all with the same beginning letter? So not cute. |
|
Of course I wouldn't. Names are very personal. Heck, I knew a family with a Rose, a Lily, and a Violet. The parents called them their beautiful garden.
|
| What about George Foreman naming 5 of his sons George (George, Jr., George III, etc all in the same generation!)? Then you could also refer to them by nicknames. |
|
My favorites are the name and the nickname together -- people don't know one derives from the other
Molly Marie Kukowski Nancy Anne Rider Sally Sarah McGee Lisa Elizabeth Jones |
Maybe because we're not 60?! |
