Cousin giving baby the same first and middle name of my DS!

Very odd... unless you are Scottish in which case we only use the same four names for everyone in a family.

I think it's super weird. I especially since you are in the same area.

"This is my cousin, Darrell, and this is my other cousin, Darrell"

Extremely annoying, OP. My niece's name is within my daughter's name. Something like Liana and Ana and they did the same for their son. Annoying, but oh well.

Ages, please .
If your son is 17 and is named John Peter after a relative, and your cousin is pregnant and had the same relatives , then not such a big deal.
For example my grandfather and unless share a name . If I named my baby after my grandfather and my cousin named her baby after Her father , yes, they would have the same name. Further, she is 15 years years younger than me.
However if you and your cousin had babies a year part and both named them Finnegan Jaxon, no rhyme or reason , then yes that would be strange
We need more info OP

OP here. First name is not a family name, middle name is - but on my husband's side. My son is 12. I know that's quite a difference in age but I still think this whole thing is weird.

Weird. But you don't own the name. And your child is older. So, move on.

I doubt that many people will get your son and your cousin's son mixed up.

There is no dibs on names.

Case closed. You're the weird one.

Eh. My brother and my cousin have the same name (including last name). Not a big deal.
