Or could you flip the names around? Is Jesse short for something longer? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-141249 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 13:03:15 +0000 heffalump 141249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't.

I was thinking Billy the Kid and reversing them to The Kid Billy. I need sleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140812 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 18:42:38 +0000 cupcakemama 140812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thinking about it though.... James would be his middle name so the name would be jesse lastname. I would probably avoid jesse if your lastname was james. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140808 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 18:38:04 +0000 cupcakemama 140808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't use it. Tbh whenever I see names like that I think 'what were the parents thinking?'. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140800 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 18:24:10 +0000 mrs.earrings 140800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to be named Jesse James if I was a boy! And they ended up naming me Bonnie which is still an outlaw's name...ha. I do like Jesse James actually, but DH isn't sold on Jesse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140766 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 17:38:15 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 140766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would totally do it--it's a nice name!<br /> I have a friend named James Dean... I think it's pretty awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140762 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 17:28:46 +0000 MaisyMay 140762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jacks: Ugh.

I personally really like that name. As long as you're not going to be calling him (hypothetically :)) by his first and middle name together there's no reason for most people to know that his middle name is James and connect the two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140694 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 16:32:29 +0000 MaisyMay 140694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@AngelBee: Lol. </p> <p>My dad is Jessie Floyd and my husband's dad is James Bruno. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140680 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 16:24:49 +0000 chopsuey 140680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would if it's a nice name! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140648 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 15:58:14 +0000 Ms.SK 140648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@angelbee Ha!

Obviously we are nowhere ready to make a decision as we are still in the 1st trimester, but it's fun to talk about. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140565 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 15:07:09 +0000 LuLu Mom 140565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay: What about flip flopping the names so it's not an outlaw, or does that not work? </p> <p>If the outlaw murdered or raped people I wouldn't name my child after them or someone that is so famiilar that everyone would go "oh like the western outlaw?" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-name#post-140559 Fri, 27 Apr 2012 14:58:08 +0000 MaisyMay 140559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Even though it's really early, we've already started talking names (never stopped!) and we've decided we both like family names. I'd love to name a child after both of our dads, but when we put the names together, it's a famous outlaw.</p> <p>Hypothetically, would you name your child the same name as an outlaw or a famous person? </p>
