Baby Names

Input on my name please...only taking honest opinions! :)

Andrew Paul...  (DREW not Andy)

Brooke Elizabeth...

 We don't want to tell anyone the name until the baby is born so I can't ask my sisters for their opinion and I don't want any surprise reactions after they are born.

 I have some hesitations on 1 of these but wasn't sure if I was over thinking it or if others will think the same thing.  Both middle names are family names.  Would love all input- good and bad

  • Drew Paul sounds like Ru Paul. LOL
  • Love Andrew Paul and love Drew. Do NOT like Brooke (80.s valleygirlish)

    I love Elizabeth though. Even thought it's nms Brooke Elizabeth goes well together. 

  • I like Drew.  Brooke is a nice name, but I know two horrible women named Brooke, so I could never use it, haha.  Elizabeth is lovely.

  • My honest opinion is that they're both solid, all-American names, whose only hang-up is that they are incredibly dull.

  • Brooke is nms, but they are both nice names.  I love Drew as a nn for Andrew.  Are you worried about it sounding like RuPaul?  I wouldn't; in situations where his mn is used it will be with his whole fn, kwim?

  • Love Andrew Paul, Don't like Brooke at all, Love Elizabeth.
  • Love Drew. Not a fan of Brooke in general, but I think Brooke Elizabeth sounds nice together.
  • Andew Paul sounds lovely . . . but, Drew Paul? I guess it's unlikely the middle name and his nickname will be spoken together, but I clearly hear Rupaul.

    And, I'm sorry, but I think Brooke is the most atrocious name. Despite having met several perfectly classy Brookes, I still associate it with trashy women.

  • Yep, Drew Paul and RuPaul was my hesitation... I didn't know who else would think of it and I'm not so keen on my little man having the same name as RUPAUL! haha!  Thanks for the input- helps me think through what we want to use.  I LOVE THIS BOARD :)
  • I really like both choices.

  • Eh, if you are going to call him Drew then name him Drew!  I just don't get that especially if you have a strong preference that he not be nicknamed Andy.

     LOVE Brooke Elizabeth :)
