Tell me how dumb this is

So I love the name Charlotte, but DH and I want all our kids to have the same initials since we both do. Obviously, we're having a boy and naming him Samson. Our other boy name is Simon and our only girl name we like is Sydney. I don't need a girl name for a while, IF we even have 1+ girls, but I'm just curious as to how you would respond to the name Sharlotte.

Like I said, we may never have to be there and think about it, I'm just wondering what you guys think.

I think it's uneek. And dumb. Sorry.

I don't like it at all. I would pick a name that it supposed to start with a S since the other names you have picked out do. Sharlotte is too far of a stretch for me.

That's exactly what I thought. Thanks!

Definately takes away the beauty of the name for me. There's great S names out there!

If you love Charlotte, you need to use it and spell it Charlotte, or choose a different name. I'm not a big fan of the alliterative family matchiness anyway, so I'd say use Charlotte.

I don't like it at all. Sorry! How about Scarlett?

I honestly think it is terrible.

I know it's not really in there, but all I see is "shart" when I look at it. Stick with the original spelling if you really love the name.

forensicmama · August 2010

Ick. Charlotte is the way to go. Who needs matchy-matchy initials?!

scheti01 · August 2010

I'm not a fan of the spelling Sharlotte.

I went to high school with a girl named Sharla, which might be something you would consider.

Yeah, feces was the first thing that came to mind.

Eh, I am not a fan of unique spellings.

That is as dumb as putting a rooster hat on a turtle to see if he'll crow!

TLizzy · August 2010

I don't think this is a good idea.

BelleBaby · August 2010

Um, no. I just looks horrid.

There are a lot of really nice girl names that start with S. I'd start over.

Kimmy1836 · August 2010

AWFUL. I can't even express how much I dislike that. Perhaps I am biased because we are naming our LO Charlotte. It is such a beautiful name and to change the spelling like that would be really atrocious.

MicahAnn · August 2010

Yea I am not a fan of it either. So some possible S names are

Sawyer, Scarlett, Samantha, Sadie, Sasha, Savannah (Keeping with the theme of a city), Sara, Sienna, Sloan (on my list), Stacey, Sterling, Summer

Hopefully you find somthing to get started thinking in a different direction.

I like her suggestion!

Sorry, Sharlotte makes me want to vomit a little. Its the name name as Charlotte, just misspelled. The only difference between the two is on paper, where Sharlotte looks dumb.

This is my step-sister's name. I've always thought it was pretty

stargirlsheart · August 2010

Sorry but I think it is silly. Sort of Duggar-ish like Jinger instead of Ginger. Please don't do that to a poor baby.

Bahahaha. Please don't mess with the spelling of Charlotte.
