Baby Names

Carys

Newly pregnant here. I don't know the sex yet, but I'm loving the name Carys. The only issue is that our last name is Hilton.

Is Carys Hilton way too much like Paris Hilton? I would hate, hate, HATE for people to make that association.  

What do you ladies think?

Re: Carys

  • Ha ha! Too close in my opinion! It is a fine name, just not with your last name. Sorry!!

  • Oh man, that really sucks but I think it does eliminate the name! I also love Carys, but we have a 2 syllable last name that ends in S so it doesn't work or us either :(

  • Yikes, that's a bummer! Stinks when you like a name and feel like you can't use it. Dumb Paris!

  • I love Carys, but not with Hilton. That would be the first thing I thought

  • Beautiful name, but the association kills it for me too. Bummer!
  • Too close in my opinion! I like Carys too but my name is Paris so it would never work for me either!

  • Not a fan of the name Carys. And I would associate it with Paris Hilton. Sorry!
