Question about my boys name.....

futuremomma2017

I was talking baby names with a friend today and mentioned my current pick for a boy is Samuel Edward. The first words out of my friends mouth was "Nice name, but it sounds like a beer."

Is she right? Does that sound like a beer? I don't drink so I couldn't tell you what names are also used to label beers.....

Samuel Adams is a well-known beer.

That being said, I don't think Samuel Edward sounds like a beer at all. My dad's name is Samuel Roy, and I never once have thought that. Your friend must just associate anything "Samuel" with beer.

Samuel Edward is a nice solid strong name. Ignore her

Your friend is a hater. It's a fine name.

I think it's a nice name. Does not sound like a beer. You didn't pick Samuel Adam or anything.

Ignore her...

Another vote to ignore her. 

Samuel Edward is fantastic. Associating this name with Sam Adams beer is a long shot, IMO. She must have a one track mind. I doubt anyone else would make such a comment.

Comparing it to Sam Adams is quite a stretch. Ignore her.

It's a great name. She's just trying to give you grief.
