We had Ethan picked out as the name for our impending new arrival.
Will this now look like we copied Danni Minogue???

No, it's not unusual enough and most people don't follow the celeb name thing. I'd keep with it if you've already settled on it

I agree, it's not that unusual and she's not that famous so I'd stick with it, it's a lovely name.
People may comment on it in the first few months but I reckon she, and certainly her DS's name, will soon be forgotten.

It's not that unusual, I know several little Ethans and they are all lovely! Go for it, no one will make the connection (not like Cruz Beckham, for example).

Its a very very popular name, I doubt that anyone will think that you copied Danni.

lovechoc · 15/07/2010 19:14

It is very popular now, so no one will think you are copying Danni.

Thanks
I think we'll stick with Ethan then.

My ds2 is Ethan. It wasn't that popular when he was named....typical

valiumSingleton · 15/07/2010 19:49

No, I think she picked a normal name. Ethan is a good solid name.

I prefer the name Evan.
