Do I use a Kardashian name?

[JadeLucie24]

For a girl I love the name Rain/Reign/Reine (not sure how I’d spell it) but baby daddy is reluctant as it’s one of Kourtney Kardashians kids and he thinks that people will just assume she’s named after that...which she’s not!! What are your views? X

I've got a Mason which is another of her children's names,I liked it anyway though

If you use the term 'baby daddy' then it is compulsory to use a Kardashian name.

How about a variation such as "light drizzle"?

It just makes me think of:
“Hi, my name is Rain, I have my own kiln and my dress is made out of wheat”

But I’m showing my age there.

What I said was that Hosanna would be shortened to Ho as a teenager, and I could come up with alternative such as Alleluliah for the sibling but I couldn’t be arsed (mainly because there were many other suggestions on the thread.) I never called virtue names ‘alleluljah names’.

If you can’t understand plain English that’s on you.

Ok Tatiana. You told me I misquoted you. I didn’t. That’s on you. Oh and also, the woman in question was married to a man from Zimbabwe and her daughter was born in Zimbabwe. So what’s the fact she may or may not have been white got to do with it? Can names only reflect the mother’s heritage? Anyway, I’m not arguing with you. You chose to get up in arms about people not liking the term baby daddy yet you are rude about a multitude of things. And yes, I’m my opinion what you said could be classed as a rude comment regarding the heritage of names (again, I direct quoted you, so no misrepresentation) Go back and read the comment if you wish. If not. Whatever. Just maybe think about things you’ve said in the past before calling other people out. I won’t be replying to you again because, quite frankly, I have no interest in you trying to wrangle your way out of your comments.

In future Tat I will make sure I research all things I express an opinion on just to be sure that I do not offend! It's such a mine field!

You see Rain would never get into an argument like this. She’s too busy weaving and dancing naked in a field of heather.

I think Reina/Raina is nice and then not a Kardashian name

I am a Lorraine, have used the nickname Rain in the past with no issues.

Reine means queen in French. Not a bad name imo. Certainly wouldn't remind me of the of the Kardashians... (I thought their names started with K?)

I also like Rain and Rania.

Both Raynes I know are spelt Rayne. It's my favourite spelling version

Ps a lovely name and considering it's a girl I don't think of Kardasians. Also how many kids are now called Mason?!

YABU for calling the man baby daddy

Kendal has made our baby list. I also quite like Penelope but must admit with that being quite out there it put me off a bit people thinking of the Kardashians. Raine is a lovely name tho. There is rainie on eastanders to give a different slant haha

Back for an encore Cbeebies?

You did misquote me and I showed how. You misinterpreted my post, whether intentionally or not it’s hard to tell.

The father in question was white Zimbabwean - a country with a history of oppressive white minority rule (formerly Rhodesia).

I strongly suggest you stop picking up fag ends and stop boring me.

If you had a girl named Raine I would think nothing of it, as it's a traditional name and I don't follow the vapid, pointless, pouting, over-exposed Kardashians anyway.

I also quite like Penelope but must admit with that being quite out there it put me off a bit people thinking of the Kardashians

Penelope is a lovely name and I honestly wouldn't think of the Kardashians.

Kendall is very Kardashian-y imo...

The "Baby" in Baby Daddy does however seem like a slightly unnecessary add-on.
Do people also use the term Baby Mummy?

They say baby mum, I've heard men say that.

Doesn't matter what community uses it it's a horrible term.

Kendall is out there.

Penelope is not it’s been around for years and it’s a lovely name.

I wouldn't make the association with the Kardashian kid name but I personally don't like the name, especially with your spelling. Seems really hippy-ish and reminds me of that Ross/Rachel scene in FRIENDS...

Rachel: If it's a girl, Rain.
Ross: Veto.
Rachel: Why?
Ross: Rain? "Hi, my name is Rain. I have my own kiln, and my dress is made out of wheat."
Phoebe: I know her! I bought a homemade soap from her!

Raine for a girl is nice, definitely not any of the other spellings though.

Penelope is a lovely, traditional name.

Kendall- just don't.

Wasn’t Diana’s stepmother Raine pronounced Rain-e (like rainy?) or have I got that wrong?

I quite like Rena too (pronounced Reena)

Only on mumsnet would the colloquial term (and an urban dictionary-acceptable one at that) ‘baby daddy’ be somehow reverted to be a cultural misappropriation.
And only by an utter snob.

Reine is a pretty name. I wouldn’t associate it with the Kardashians, nor would I bash anyone who wanted to name their child anything associated with the Kardashian’s clan.
