This is my problem with Addison. Except that it's actually a disease.

Horrible.

The name Zoe is Greek. It means "life." I'm sorry the pp thinks it sounds like a disease, but that shows how little the pp actually knows. We selected the name Zoe for our daughter because her birth actually was a triumph of life out of disease. It's a beautiful name and it suits here. And shame on you for being so disgusting in your dismissal of it.

Addison literally means "son of Adam," so it's completely inappropriate for a girl. No, we don't have an Addison. But comparing a name to a disease? Reprehensible. The two people who wrote these two posts should spend some time reflecting on why they think this way and what it says about them as people and what happened in their lives to turn them into such wicked shrews. Who compares a name to a disease? Wow.

Somebody need to lighten up. Somebody already crapped on my daughters name and my middle and last name. I find this amusing; why do you care that much about what some anonymous person on a message board thinks?

God's love and Holly Gost. I was so shocked to hear that these names are common in Ghana, West Africa. Must be some super religious people out there!

I will only say that I dislike all old lady and old man names. I mean those of our grandparents generation and prior to them. I just think they are ugly (Mabel, Agnes, Betty, Molly, Henry, Charles, I could go on). I do not like super trendy names either or 80's names (and I have one). I prefer either very ethnic or extremely classic and not fugly.

John is a proper name. Charlie is a nickname. Charles is a proper name. Give your child a chance at a good job and some dignity. Don't set your child up by giving him or her a cutesy name in place of a proper name. Don't make up names. Don't spell names in an odd way. It's not cute. It's not fun. It's not special. What it is, is a crappy thing to do to a person. You may as well attach an addendum to your child's birth certificate that says, "I come from a low class and uneducated background," OR, "my mom was a striper with a 6th grade education."

John is a New Testament name. If you name your son John, just call him John. For Jews, Jack is a first proper first name. In fact, it is for non-Jews too. It's hit the "proper" name status. Deal with it. Signed, a mom who did not name her son John or Jack.

I think you're wrong on the Jewish thing -- Jews use Jack as a nickname for Jacob instead of John, but few (actually, probably only my dumbs SIL) use it as a name.
