<WAILS> she's unwittingly nicked my boy name!! <sob>

[UpTheFRIGGinDuff]

We had decided on Rufus Caspar.

It was perfect.

We knew no other child with the name,it creates the NN Ru which I adore (can't use rupert or Reuben either),it's not popular but not unknown,it has no terrible associations,it goes brilliantly with our other DC names,and it's cool dammit.

But now a sort-of-relative-family-friend has used it for her PFB,and it will look like we've copied and I know it's childish but I do care about that for some reason.

It's taken me months to settle on a name and now I have to start all over again

It's Not Fair!








HELP ME

Call him Ru as you announce it to extended family. To others you can call him the full name of nickname.

If you love the name then you should definitely use it or you will regret it. A name is just a name and I doubt they or anyone else will care if you have the same one. The babies have their own personalities and aren't defined by a name.

I love it btw
