I think my crazy preform brain is just overthinking things :silly: </p> <p>I think we’re leaning towards Harrison James now anyway, so this thread is kind of moot now. I appreciate everyone’s input and reassurance, though! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2813108 Fri, 30 Mar 2018 11:10:35 +0000 Silva 2813108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I'm not even sure my kids extended family members know their middle names. We never use them, and so they would have only really heard it with the birth announcement. Wouldn't cross my mind! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2813038 Fri, 30 Mar 2018 08:04:25 +0000 cat620 2813038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think initials are something not worth worrying about, since any combination of initials could be something someone could potentially make a connection to. My son's initials are OD. Does that make people think of overdose? Or my other son is ND. Is he from North Dakota? What about if you have a girl? Are you going to stop her from marrying a man because of her future initials? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811771 Sun, 25 Mar 2018 15:46:06 +0000 Kitkat 2811771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>James would be the middle </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811770 Sun, 25 Mar 2018 15:45:48 +0000 Kitkat 2811770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@2littlepumpkins: James would be the middle </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811746 Sun, 25 Mar 2018 09:40:31 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2811746@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't have. Is James part of the first, the middle, or the last? If it's the middle I definitely wouldn't worry about it because there's another initial following it and people are rarely even introduced with their middle names. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811743 Sun, 25 Mar 2018 09:29:55 +0000 Kitkat 2811743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank you all! I guess it’s just DH and me who immediately connected it to OJ Simpson :silly: </p> <p>Also noticed I had two identical answers on the poll...(kind of) fixed now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811700 Sat, 24 Mar 2018 18:19:13 +0000 birdofafeather 2811700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>unless you regularly call him OJ, it would take me a bit to realize and wouldn't be a big deal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811699 Sat, 24 Mar 2018 18:00:20 +0000 Pollywog 2811699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope. Not wt all. I mean, how many times will people even hear the middle name? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811694 Sat, 24 Mar 2018 17:24:04 +0000 LCTBQE 2811694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lioneyes: yep :)<br /> Owen is a pretty far disconnect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811693 Sat, 24 Mar 2018 17:16:08 +0000 lioneyes 2811693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think unless you want to use the name orenthal you’re fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811691 Sat, 24 Mar 2018 16:07:57 +0000 erinbaderin 2811691@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I’d think of orange juice before I’d think of OJ Simpson. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/quick-name-questionpoll#post-2811689 Sat, 24 Mar 2018 16:06:51 +0000 Kitkat 2811689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you met a baby named Owen James, would you immediately realize his initials are OJ/make an OJ Simpson connection? What if the last name started with S?</p> <p>Am I way overthinking this? </p>
