Calling my baby boy Romeo when my name is Juliette

[Juju1981]

Hi Mums,

I am expecting my 3rd son and I really want to call him Romeo (it came to me in a dream) and my name is Juliette. I really like the name but suddenly wondered if it was weird that I call him that considering the story of Romeo and Juliette and that I'm his mum....
I may be reading way too much into this but would be happy to read your opinions...
Thanks much : )

Too close to Oedipus’s story in my mind because of the romantic name connection yet it is a case of mother and son. So probably best not to. You can always ask your DP to change his name to Romeo?

"O, be some other name!"

No Romeo. Just no.

I wanted to call DS Ramses when I was pg so I get the effect of hormones, I really do.

But ffs don't do it.

It’s really not that bad... it’s only a name

I hate how nasty and spiteful everyone gets on here sometimes!!!
I really don't think it's a good idea OP. There are children called Romeo here too, so that's not the issue. I just think its such an obvious pairing that it will raise eyebrows!

Wht about Roman instead

I love it! I would deffo do it i think its sweet and diffrent, go for it!! Congratulations byw :) x

When he is older he may come to you and complain; "Romeo, Romeo wherefore art I Romeo"

Oh god no!
Very very weird!
Poor crater will have the life ribbed out of him by his peers forever!
It's a bit icky and definately weird

I'd be examining your unconscious attitude to a baby son.

Please don’t

Very good OP very good! How about Monty for a middle name?!!!🤣

Oh-and reported...

This has got to be a joke...

Cringe .....

I smell bullshit.

And ‘hello mums’ not envy

No it's really weird

Just name him Oedipus and be done with it
😂😂
Very odd OP
