[quote=Anonymous][quote]Right now we are on the opposite side of the conundrum: we have chosen the name Beatrix for our new baby, but we don't announce our children's names before they are born. I am wondering what to say to semi-close friends whom we have known for 20 years but only see half a dozen times a year whose daughter is named Beatrice [Italian]. Though our choice of the name is not related to her at all it does seem appropriate to acknowledge the close link between the names.[/quote] Our Beatrix is due in October. Let you're friend know we're using it, too ;) We don't share names either, but in this case, you might want to float it by in a group possibilities. For example, find a time to casually bring up names and rattle off a few that you're "considering"... put Beatrix in there. If you feel like you owe them a heads up or explanation, there it is. OP. similar advice, although I think it's totally fine, especially if the kids are completely different ages. [/quote]
