I like the name Daphne, but DH says it's a stripper name.  Really?  When did that happen?

    Boo! I love Daphne. I think in the Scooby Doo live action movies made about 10 years ago, the character of Daphne was portrayed to be a bit ditsy. For some, maybe there is a thin line between ditsy and stripper.

    I dont like Daphne at all.  But I've never thought it was a stripper name!  Maybe he met one, once?  hahah jk

     

    Haha!  It is tradition in his group to go to the strip club for bachelor parties.  Maybe there is one stripper out there that ruined the name for me.  How dare she! ;)

    NOT a stripper name. If he says that often it may just be a good excuse to keep you from liking names he doesn't. LOL

    I hope not - it's my daughter's name! I think its a beautiful, classic Greek name. I have never, ever thought of Daphne as a stripper name. BTW, all we've heard is how much people love her name. Of course they could be lying, but I don't think they are.

    I'd never think stripper, but it does make me think of Frasier.

    I don't care for the name, but ig doesn't make me think stripper

    Definitely not a stripper name. I think it sounds refined and elegant. Three Daphnes I've ever heard, Daphne from mythology (she was a nymph who refused the advances of a god and was transformed into a tree to escape him), Daphne from Scooby-Doo, and Daphne from Frazier(Frazier's Father's home care therapy person from England)

    TTC since March of 2012
    Me: 27 Dh: 35 Testing Begins 3/5/13
    Six SA's show DH has low numbers across the board = severe MFI
    Genetic testing for me = MTHFR+, also carrier for blood clotting disorder Otherwise all else normal
    Dh's karotype= Normal!!

    Makes me think of the maid from Fraiser. She was elegant witty and smart. I like it.
