[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like a Catholic schoolboy turned college frat bro who exclusively goes by JP and is kind of d*uchey. 🤷🏼‍♀️[/quote]
Anyone who goes by their initials tends to be a d*uche. I know a JC, JD, JJ, TJ, DJ, KC, AJ. I'm not kidding when I say they're all full of themselves and think they're God's gift to the world! It's a strange phenomenon.[/quote]

My ILs were trying this because they didn't like my first son's name and I put a hard stop to that!
I love John-Paul, I think it's very handsome. Kids don't make fun of each others names these days. They find plenty of other stuff to mock but names aren't one of them.[/quote]
Exactly, a kid would be more likely to be made fun of for not having a phone (or something similar) nowadays rather than their name. Even when I was in school, I never saw anyone get made fun of for their name. I did, however, see kids be bullied due to their clothing, physical appearance, socioeconomic status, personality, behavior, interests, physical + mental disabilities, medical conditions, innocence, religiousness, and other perceived differences that made them an easy target.

The lesson here is to teach our children to be kind and make them feel safe to come to us if they're being treated poorly by anyone. The lesson should not be to avoid using perfectly normal names because we blindly assume that they will be made fun of.[/quote]
