Two random questions: 1) Worst first name to have? 2) Worst month to be born in?

I would hate to be born in December and January. DH and I wouldn't TTC a baby born in those months. He's an early January baby and it is really hard on him.

Why is it really hard on him to have an early January bday?

no one wants to celebrate. He doesn't need anything because Christmas just passed. His family often forgets because of the timing. And it's cold, dreary and icy out. DH loves traveling, but we rarely plan anything for his birthday because it's a bad time of year. We're out of annual leave due to the holidays and it's too cold to go anywhere nice.

Jan. 5th day here. Yup to all of this. People are broke, on a diet, and burned out of celebrating anything. And everyone forgets (pre-Facebook).

Maybe you both should make little changes so that he can love it. DC has an early January month and I can't imagine forgetting and/or not celebrating, somehow, even as an adult. Make the time, even if it's just the 2 of you. I suggest saving a few days and taking a trip somewhere.

We've been married a long time. He's also hated it for most of his life. I battle with depression and January is the worst month. It's so stressful after the holidays. We have celebrated DH's half birthday in July.

Beauregard for a boy. I thought it was a joke.

Worst month -- December.

Actually I have a friend with a Jan 1 bday and she hates it. No one ever wants to do anything, it gets overlooked, forgotten, etc.

Winter birthdays are pretty tough. Mine's February 26 and you never know what you're gonna get here in DC... could be warm and spring like or nasty and icy. Damn near killed myself on the ice just trying to get into a restaurant for my birthday dinner. August and September would be hard too, for kids.

Townsend for a boy. I recently heard a woman calling her toddler "Townsy" as a nickname for Townsend.

As for birthdays, the worst months are probably my DCs' birthday months: late August and late December, just a couple of days before Christmas. Sorry, kids.

I'm sorry, is he still 7 years old? WTF.
