I'll take that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058941 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 13:44:38 +0000 Foodnerd81 1058941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our last name is a common verb, so you mostly just get something about a girl with her first name doing that verb. It makes us very ungoogable, which I like. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058912 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 13:24:47 +0000 LittleFox 1058912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, nothing for the first-last combo, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058854 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 12:50:44 +0000 mediagirl 1058854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. Found lots of smart people with her first and last name. Found a female wrestler with her first and middle names. Hilarity right there. It didn't dissuade us from the name, though. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058845 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 12:42:06 +0000 wonderstruck 1058845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. Our last name is ridiculously common, there are always a bunch of other people with the same exact last name unless you picked something totally crazy and out there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058839 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 12:35:16 +0000 Mrs. Polish 1058839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We only googled his first name for meanings and stuff, not the full name. Off to do that now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058825 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 12:17:54 +0000 californiadreams 1058825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i never thought to do that, i might for my next kid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058812 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 12:07:17 +0000 autumnlove 1058812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, our last name isn't common! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058800 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:59:55 +0000 lovehoneybee 1058800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No...we used family names so I'm not sure how much it would have mattered. Looks mostly like linked in profiles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058797 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:54:16 +0000 MamaMoose 1058797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just did. It was just linked in profiles of people with the same name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058796 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:52:38 +0000 Grace 1058796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, now I did! And yea! Nothing came up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058792 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:48:31 +0000 swedishfish 1058792@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No I didn't but my married last name is pretty unusual so I probably should've! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058786 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:42:56 +0000 lilteacherbee 1058786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, because when DH and I were dating, he told me that he googled my (maiden) name and it was also a porn star... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058783 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:41:53 +0000 mrs. 64 1058783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058782 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:41:06 +0000 .twist. 1058782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just did now... Nothing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058762 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:13:30 +0000 Arden 1058762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup. Nothing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058760 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:10:47 +0000 PurplePeony 1058760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only did a couple minutes ago because the other names thread made me curious! There were no results for either of our potential names (we're team green) but that was expected because DH's last name is very rare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058758 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:09:34 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1058758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We googled just in case. In fact, we found a charming up and coming teen folk singer named Maisie Mae who we just adore now :). We also found Magnolia studios (Indie film makers)... But no negative connotations. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-google-your-kids-names-before-naming-them#post-1058751 Sun, 01 Sep 2013 11:05:35 +0000 mrbee 1058751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This didn't occur to me... but my last name doesn't have any serial killers that I'm aware of. If so, I might've done some Googling.</p> <p>Did you Google your kids' names before naming them? </p>
