Hate when people name their kids the same. Luckily it hasn't happened to us and I doubt it will (seeing most peeps are French and they aren't attracted to Mavrick or Sienna) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-145219 Wed, 02 May 2012 18:05:30 +0000 joyjoy 145219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I both have unique names, so we've been trying to find unique (but hopefully not just plain weird) names for our lists. If a celebrity came up with the same name, I think I'd be bothered, but not *upset* unless I didn't like the celebrity. </p> <p>If someone I knew used the same name after we did, I would definitely be upset. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-145212 Wed, 02 May 2012 17:55:51 +0000 Boogs 145212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Maybe you can use at least one in the future. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-145173 Wed, 02 May 2012 17:18:03 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 145173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: yeah, we love Luca, Matteo and Teague for boys. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-145139 Wed, 02 May 2012 16:29:22 +0000 DillonLion 145139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would never name my child something as weird as these celebrities name their kids, so I doubt I will have to deal with this ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-145138 Wed, 02 May 2012 16:28:01 +0000 Boogs 145138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: I never knew that about your boy name. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144944 Wed, 02 May 2012 13:29:55 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 144944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsdaredevil: Luca was on my boy short list and I always loved Willa, though the Mr. didn't! You have great taste :)</p> <p>And I should say that with our first daughter, Pam's baby on the office was given the same name within the same week. That was kind of a bummer because people thought we chose based on that. Grumpy face! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144941 Wed, 02 May 2012 13:25:15 +0000 Running Elley 144941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jessiejo17: Definitely agree!!! I'd die of happiness if someone like Sandra Bullock or Reese Witherspoon named their baby the same name as mine :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144938 Wed, 02 May 2012 13:23:26 +0000 BSB 144938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: @Boogs: I agree with both of you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144936 Wed, 02 May 2012 13:22:10 +0000 LuLu Mom 144936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It would have to depend on the star! Someone like Snooki I would be pissed but someone classier like Sandra Bullock I wouldn't be as upset about! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144317 Tue, 01 May 2012 20:13:41 +0000 sulli301 144317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It doesn't bother me, DD has a fairly popular name but we love it :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144291 Tue, 01 May 2012 19:46:09 +0000 Boogs 144291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It bothers me more with people I know. Someone named their kid the same first name as ours and he was born a little less than 2 months before our LO. Another person had a baby a month after us and named him the same first and middle name. It really sucks, but not much we can do about it I guess. Luckily they likely won't go to the same school at least. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144280 Tue, 01 May 2012 19:30:55 +0000 T.H.O.U. 144280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It would bother me if I picked a unique name, for example Suri and then they happend to name their daughter the same thing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144256 Tue, 01 May 2012 19:17:37 +0000 heffalump 144256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't mind. I think I would be flattered if others loved my LO's name as much as I do. I picked it because I love it, not because other people do or don't. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144241 Tue, 01 May 2012 19:05:29 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 144241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsdaredevil: Egh!!! So frustrating. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144231 Tue, 01 May 2012 18:56:30 +0000 MamaMoose 144231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I really dislike the celebrity it would probably irk me to know we had the same taste in names but otherwise I wouldn't care about this at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144229 Tue, 01 May 2012 18:53:57 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 144229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is funny because all of our favorite names have been used by celebrities this year.<br /> our boys name favorites were Maxwell and Luca, both used by celebrities recently,<br /> and our favorite girls names were Ivy and Willa, both used by celebrities this year.<br /> LAME!!!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144224 Tue, 01 May 2012 18:48:29 +0000 cupcakemama 144224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO's name is fairly traditional and usually hovers around the top ten names. I don't feel the need for LO to have a 'unique' or special name, LO is unique and special in their own right. Plus our surname is uncommon so first name needed to be straightforward or LO would sound like a circus act. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144222 Tue, 01 May 2012 18:46:34 +0000 BSB 144222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think it's anything I could control, so no I don't think it would bother me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spin-off-would-it-bother-you-if-a-star-named-their-child-the-same-as-yours#post-144212 Tue, 01 May 2012 18:37:27 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 144212@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm all for uniqueness and finding a name is hard in itself, but now, with all the social media etc, I would NOT want a star to give birth and name their child one of my childs name. </p> <p>I would piss me off (but clearly I have no control over that) because then it will eventually become a popular name (depends on the star) </p>
