I'd hate for it to became as popular as Jacob or Mason and feel like it looks like we followed a trend. But I doubt I have to worry much about the royal couple choosing Declan for the their son :D. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-953444 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 14:59:50 +0000 BSB 953444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't mind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952767 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:31:37 +0000 MsLipGloss 952767@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952729 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:24:08 +0000 Boheme 952729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: I think it could be a strong contender! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952726 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:23:43 +0000 Boheme 952726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's highly unlikely but I wouldn't mind :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952712 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:18:56 +0000 Running Elley 952712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't mind at all! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952660 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:10:02 +0000 keiki_mama 952660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952609 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 12:00:02 +0000 jetsa 952609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It would bother me only because I'm not due for 2 months and you'd constantly get asked/people would assume you named your babe after it. :)<br /> If my babe was here it wouldn't bother me at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952586 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:51:27 +0000 mamabolt 952586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, wouldn't mind and actually would think it was kind of neat. I've read it's actually one of those that is getting some betting action (Eleanor) so it's not impossible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952576 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:49:21 +0000 birdofafeather 952576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my MIL would be super excited. but i sincerely doubt it will happen since R's name is Irish. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952543 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:40:33 +0000 MrsTiz 952543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, not at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952534 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:39:06 +0000 meganmp 952534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm with @highwire, I hope it happens! We've got some pretty classic names over here, names of previous royalty, in fact, so it is a little bit more likely than if they were named... oh, Blue Ivy or something. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952526 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:36:57 +0000 lawbee11 952526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but only because I am due in a few weeks and I wouldn't want people to think I "copied" her! But it is highly unlikely that she'll use our name anyways. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952523 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:35:56 +0000 Pepper 952523@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wouldn't mind at all, but I'd doubt they'd choose his name... not traditional enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952519 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:34:15 +0000 DillonLion 952519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, wouldn't mind!

I think they will choose a beautiful timeless name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952506 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:28:57 +0000 Grace 952506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since I'm due a month after the royal baby will be born, it would be annoying because it would look like I copied them. But it'll be a non-issue. The names we've picked aren't traditional enough for a royal baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952479 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:23:06 +0000 2PeasinaPod 952479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only if I had chosen the name before my LO was born. Since he's been here for almost 10 months, I'm ok with it being the same. Plus...it's a pretty classic name...so it would be hard to be mad if they chose it now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952478 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:22:59 +0000 anbanan15 952478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It wouldn't bother me. </p> <p>I really don't get what the big deal is? People name their children the same name all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952474 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:21:28 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 952474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There is a high likelihood that if the royal baby is a girl, she will share a name from our family. I'm ok with that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952465 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:20:01 +0000 MamaMoose 952465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A little only because I think it will SERIOUSLY increase the popularity of the name. But I doubt it will happen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952463 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:19:11 +0000 LuLu Mom 952463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Funny, a girl at work is pregnant with a girl and one of the names on her list is Charlotte but she said they won't use it if the royal baby has that name because she doesnt' want people to assume she named it after that baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952462 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:18:51 +0000 sslm 952462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It wouldn't bother me, necessarily. It would a little because our LOs will be roughly the same age and even though my Madeline came first, people won't know that and could assume we named her after the royal baby? Kwim? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952457 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:17:21 +0000 autumnlove 952457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It wouldn't bother me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952455 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:17:18 +0000 doodlepoodle 952455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I doubt they'll meet so I'm assuming it wouldn't be an issue ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-mind-if-the-royal-baby-had-your-babys-name#post-952454 Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:16:53 +0000 lovehoneybee 952454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It wouldn't bother me because I tended towards classic, timeless girl names (Eleanor and Grace Catherine were both on our short list) (I'm also assuming she's having a girl ;)</p> <p>DS's name isn't quite as classic (although his mn is Charles) so I'd be shocked if they chose it for a boy, but I can't imagine it would upset me at all. </p>
