A different naming question...

We are still a year away from #4 but we constantly discuss names, it's one of my favorite topics :)

H is very hard to please when it comes to names, but he has recently fallen in love with Maddox for a boy. I actually really like it and have for a long time. My concern is that we already get tons of Jolie-Pitt comments since are family is built through adoption and we are a transracial family and I'm covered in tattoos lol. Is Maddox just too over the top for us to use, given all that?

WDYT?

    Shame jaredswife isn''t here anymore, her DS was Maddox, you could've asked her if she ever got Jolie-Pitt comments.

    Can we call you Angelina if you do?

    OK, if you go to Cambodia and adopt & then name the kid Maddox, then I'd be worried about you.

    Really, if you love the name then use it.  I'm sure the Brangelina-ness of the name will fade over time.

    I think if you both love the name then you should go for it, and ingore people that compare you to Jolie-Pitt, unless of course it's a good comparison and they are commenting about how wonderful you guys are to adopt these kids and give them a loving home......

    I don't think it would stop the Jolie-Pitt comments, that's for sure. LOL

    Hehe, I think the Jolie-Pitt thing is funny.  Not necessarily a bad comparison either. 

    If you like the name use it, just don't follow with a Pax or Shilo.
