People just want to know if we named her after the president. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-the-syfy-channel-was-having-a-buffy-marathon-yesterday#post-952888 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:58:12 +0000 Adira 952888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsMamaBear: hahahaha, that's too funny! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-the-syfy-channel-was-having-a-buffy-marathon-yesterday#post-952880 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:56:37 +0000 MsMamaBear 952880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, but it's on some California Cow commercial "Thanks for hanging me out to dry there, Madison." My aunt died laughing when she saw it.LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-the-syfy-channel-was-having-a-buffy-marathon-yesterday#post-952846 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:46:51 +0000 hilsy85 952846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dagret: ha YES. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-the-syfy-channel-was-having-a-buffy-marathon-yesterday#post-952840 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:45:18 +0000 Adira 952840@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Right?? It's like once you use the name for your kid, it's odd hear it on other people!</p> <p>@hilsy85: haha, I LOVE Buffy too, and I actually liked the nickname Xander BECAUSE of Xander from the show. But now it's just weird to me, haha.</p> <p>Oh goodness, Uncle Leo, haha. At least he wasn't a MAIN character!</p> <p>@cmomma17: Xander is short of Alexander! And that's funny about the nursery rhyme - I wouldn't have thought of that, but I guess it was bound to come up at some point for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-the-syfy-channel-was-having-a-buffy-marathon-yesterday#post-952839 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:45:06 +0000 dagret 952839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: hahaha that was my thought exactly when I opened the thread. They're both kind of bald and paunchy, but I hope that's where the similarities end! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-the-syfy-channel-was-having-a-buffy-marathon-yesterday#post-952823 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:41:09 +0000 cmomma17 952823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I usually hesitate to share his name online but my LO is Cole and today my mom brought up the nursery rhyme Old King Cole :) There could be worse things I suppose ... :)</p> <p>Is Xander short for Alexander? That's my LO's middle name! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-the-syfy-channel-was-having-a-buffy-marathon-yesterday#post-952822 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:40:50 +0000 hilsy85 952822@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG I looove buffy! And Xander on Buffy is a super funny awesome dude (for the most part!) so it's at least a good association? </p> <p>There's an Uncle Leo on Seinfeld...but I prefer not to think about that :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-the-syfy-channel-was-having-a-buffy-marathon-yesterday#post-952818 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:39:59 +0000 DillonLion 952818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I was re-watching one of my favorite movies, Mermaids, the other day. The mom is named Rachel and the daughter is Charlotte! I was like ack this is weirdddd. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-the-syfy-channel-was-having-a-buffy-marathon-yesterday#post-952798 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:37:04 +0000 Adira 952798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>...and it totally felt weird to hear the name "Xander" being used there! I mean, YES, that's totally where I got the nickname, but now Xander's my baby, not Nicholas Brendon! I felt so confused watching it.</p> <p>When a character on a TV show has your baby's name, does it totally throw you off? </p>
