Advice re: narnia names!!

[weegiemum]

I have a school friend, Susan (always known as Susan, never Sue, Susie etc ...)

She has 2 children , Ed (Edward, always ka Ed) and Lucy.

Is expecting her 2nd ds, wants to call him Peter.

Am thinking that Peter, Susan, Ed and Lucy is a bit Narnia?

Or is that just me.

(Dh of friend is Derek, which breaks the link a bit!!!).

WOuld you comment, or let be?

I think it'd be cool.
It's not obvious enough for most people to notice so its quite likely that she hasn't even realised

Has anyone pointed out the Narnia connection to her? Is she bothered? If not, then I guess it's her choice (although it is a bit of a Narnia overload!).

I don't think it matters and I'm a huge Lewis fan - there's a thought, Peter Lewis

I haven't pointed it out, I don't want to freak her out.

She is a big CS Lewis fan so I can't imagine it hasn't occured to her at all.

I just wouldn't do that to my kids, but if she wants to its her choice.

Shoudl I just keep my mouth shut?

Yeah keep schum, most people won't notice, it's hardly like they're all called Grumpy, Sleepy, Dopey and Bashful.

if she had a Peter there would also be the Eastenders connection. Peter and Lucy Beale?

They're perfectly lovely names, so I would n't be worrying too much about the Narnia connection.

i am not sure it would really stand out especially as her ds is an Edward rather than an edmund....

ERmm if she is a big CS Lewis fan, then why on earth would she need it pointed out to her? Of course she is doing it deliberately.
Personally I would find it a bit twee having all four 'Narnia' names in a family, but each to their own. They've obviously thought about it, I wouldn't comment.

OK, I'll keep quiet.

Will while writing Christmas cards, but otherwise, its her family, her decision!

Bit mean to snurk.

Don't like this thread.

I like it . It's not as if you would say or wriTe them in that order anyway.

I wouldn't see the big deal. They're just classic names.

My friend's sister has a George and a chloe and my 4 year old made the observation that they are both peppa pig names. (cousin chloe, to those who aren't huge fans).

You don't have to like it.

I was just asking?

good point ALBS

Lovely names, no problem wth Narnia names at all as long as the next one doesn't get called Mr Tumnus or Aslan.

I knew a Caspian growing up. He was very good looking and I had a massive crush....
