Baby Names

What are your thoughts?

We were going to go with the name Wesson, call him Wes for short. I guess it's pretty uncommon from what I've heard. What do you think on it?

Re: What are your thoughts?

  • Like the gun? Or the cooking oil?

    Yuck, either way.

    If you want to use the nn Wes, you could do Wesley or Weston.

  • It's uncommon because not a lot of people want to name their kids after cooking oil.

  • Really dislike Wesson. Sounds like someone is struggling to say "Lesson." Much prefer Weston or Wesley!

    Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever!

    I would think you were a gun nut. I guess the next kid could be Smith or Ruger or Glock.

    I really really really dislike it.

    This! It also reminds me of cooking oil!

    Ummm....she obviously cares what people thing.  Hence the title of the post "What are your thoughts?"  This seems like such an odd response to this post.  Like if someone asked "Do you like ice cream?" responding with "Who cares if I like ice cream?"

     

    OP - I immediately think of the cooking oil with Wesson.  But I do think Weston is a good alternative.
