First and middle names the same?

[Jennsdiaries]

hello people of mummsnet

is there any reason why i cant give my new baby tha same first and middle names

i got a name i really like and me boyfriend likes it to so we thought wed give it the same for both.

what doyou think is it a good idea or allowed from the law. we were thinking of jenn jenn or maybe jennifer jenn. my name is jenn as well so we know we like it

Is there an echo here?

alrite thanks for the replys but dont be taking the piss its a nice idea to give them a normal name like jenn but then make it more unusal by having it again as the middle. i just wanna know if its legal or if anyone else had the idea

O M F G. Are you nuts?

Go for it.

what about Jennifer Jennifer?...

or if it's a boy John John

Why not use the same name for all names like Smith Smith Smith?

Erm Jenn isnt a real name is it?

You could try Kiki?

How about Nine Nine Nuh nuh nuh nuh Nineteen

I'm liking Jenny jen jen-certain ring to it...

Why not call DD1 after your choice (Jennifer) and you can call DD2 after DP's choice (Jennifer).

How about Tom Tom? Sounds like a nice traditional name, people won't find out he's actually been named after a drum for ages

Kiki Kiki mnight be a bit much Mario - be serious

Just noticed you are also a Jen.
Do you know that DP could change his name by deed poll. How about Jen for him, too.

Acanthus your idea will only work if the DP is a piper.
Or an installer of sat nav.

How about "Chin Chin"?

Was it AA Milne who wrote
James James Morrison Morrison?

It works for Boutros Boutros Ghali...or does it...

I think the OP is missing a trick here. There are so many options for interesting combinations of first and middle name. Albert Hall. Walter Wall. Mike Hunt....

Jenn you're a bit late to the party.

Google 'Boutros Boutros-Ghali', dear.

It's not illegal to call your kid the same name twice, but it is fucking daft.

But the Jen Jen thing. She'd get all her forms returned to her for her whole life as people assumed she had filled them in wrongly. Or is it a boy? You're giving a boy two girls' names ? That is original.

Love that poem, reality.(did you get fed up of typing by the end?
