Are your DCs names on Coke bottles - a new MN test !

[KenDoddsDadsDog]

personalised bottles
I just picked up my DDs name in Ireland and also mine which I was really surprised about !

[peachypips]

I know I'm not supposed to do this, but I don't care. Our names are relatively common and only DH on the list. He is Paul, I am Joanna, then DSs are Zachary and Charlie. Weirdness.

[Breezy1985]

DS is but he's got a top 10 name which has been in the top ten years.

No coke bottles for me or DD, I'm surprised about mine as I thought it was popular, knew there wouldn't be DD's her name is unusual.

[thistlelicker]

I won't get my name on a bottle due
To the spelling! I'm rather sad about it haha

[bruffin]

Got both dcs the other day. They collect bottles/cans anyway so nice to add to their collection.

[MrsMaryCooper]

mine is and DS, DH has a rarer spelling so I doubt it

[poppydaisy]

Coke will obviously only choose to print common names - so they can sell to lots of coke!

So, by definition, if your name is on their bottles, you're likely to share a name with lots of others. No surprises there really imo.

[poppydaisy]

In fact, they use the most popular 150 names amongst all generations -have just looked at the names and they're indeed all very popular.

[Wishfulmakeupping]

Mine and OH names there but dd's isn't which surprises me as its in top 100 girl names

[poppydaisy]

They aren't using the current top 100 baby names but the top 150 most popular names over the past 30-40 years!

[Weegiemum]

My girls are, my boy isn't.

But we avoid Coca-Cola anyway due to their crappy policies worldwide, Killercoke it's not a big deal to us, we won't buy it anyway.

[poppydaisy]

Wow, didn't know that! We don't really buy coke due to it being basically pure sugar, but that would be another reason to avoid it!

[Wishfulmakeupping]

Didn't realise that poppydaisy that makes sense now I thought there was some random names on there

[HaveIGotPoosForYou]

Just came across this.
Zombie thread.

Yes my DDs name is on here.
She can't drink coke yet, but might buy it for my DP!

Got my name but spelt differently.
Got my Dads, Mums, sisters and DPs names too.

I might customise one for myself when it comes around to them later this summer.

Could do with a nice cool Cherry Cola right now .:)

[WithASpider]

DD1 nope, DD2 not either. DH and DS are, Not mine though! Mind you the only place I've found mine was on a necklace at Jamaica Inn, and DD1 was one of fewer than 3 named in the UK the year she was born.

I may have to get ours made up.

Seems like a good test to avoid the super popular names!
