Have I given my middle name here before?! Despite the fact that both my first and middle have been listed today as a good baby name.
Oh, I forgot my husband's cousin's kids...
Atticus, Dietrich (Deke), Lincoln, and Thea Belle
On "You don't look like your name"...my husband is adopted, and his parents didn't get custody of him until he was 6 months old. For those 6 months, he had a completely different name. I think we found that name out, and his look fits that name.
I've heard of couples having their child's name firmly picked out, but when they're born, they change the name because they don't look like a Madison/Charlie/etc.

Yeah some people just don't match their name.
That's why I'm against a lot of the cutesy names people are coming up with. Imagine a 60 year old with that cutesy little girl name. Just weird.
As for same letter trends. I dated a girl in HS who had a family tradition where each person got to pick one letter to start all their kids names with. They each had to have a different letter.
Good thing more couples don't do that or the world would be swarming with Winston Churchill ______s.
By the way, my mom and dad have the same middle initial so all five kids have that same middle initial - only a little KoolAidish. Mrs. Velo's mom and dad have the same first initial so all three kids have that first initial. It doesn't seem so bad when it is only three. Besides there isn't a made up name in the bunch (in either family for that matter). They are all pretty traditional names with long histories without being something dredged up from the distant past and hadn't been used in a long time.
So we finally got tired of the cat peeing and pooping outside of the box. My wife took her to the shelter and they just tell her they will put her down.
Thanks that helped a lot...

DH and I are this way....apparently he had wanted to use his middle initial for his kids anyway so he's like you're just lucky you have the same letter. Thanks, ya poop.
They'd probably all be family names as well since we'd use both our middles (family names), combine my mom's middle and my fake grandpa's middle for another and pull a couple others from his side as needed. It was neat when we started thinking about it as to how easy it would be.
Now my problem is I've always wanted to use my great-grandma's name but she doesn't fit the initial and I don't want to use it for a first name.
My aunt used the same initial on the first three kids, then used a different one for the fourth. That bugs me that they don't all match. But if I want to use that great-grandma's name......I'll have a non-matcher! :shocked:
Nope. No front claws and never been outside so that would have been the same as putting her down.
Could the cat possibly get trained to chase a wire-chewing squirrel out from underneath the overhang of a covered deck. If not, I'm looking at mongoose rental places as my next option.
I don't think we are going to understand unless you let us look at your spread sheet.
Semi related, I have at times dreamed of moving to the south pacific and opening a bar: Rikki's Tiki Tavern.
Bunch of grad party invites in the mail. Do people do these in larger towns? Looks like I am out of cooking for the next two weekends, but I need to pace the food better. Last year I went to only one piece of cake a weekend but it was awful when you are already ate that cake and two parties later, there is an even more amazing looking piece of cake. Also hoping for more walking tacos, less pulled pork.
