Baby Names

F/U to 'I need to prove DH wrong..."

I have loved the name Pearl for years. DH thinks that anyone and everyone who hears it will think of the Will Ferrel video.

While many of you did, not all, and not even most!

Thanks Ladies!

  • I have a friend from HS who names her DD Pearl. I think it's cute.

  • What Will Ferrel video? 

    I love the name Pearl. I think it's lovely and antiquey and absolutely gorgeous. I do't think of the Will Ferrel video because I'm not even sure what that is supposed to refer to. Not to mention, that makes it absolutely next to nil chance that anybody in her generation will know about this video your hubby is referring to. 

    I might just Google this one... Pearl + Will Ferrel + video? I don't know what that means.

    It is hilarious! And actually the little girl's name really is Pearl-which I think is very pretty.

  • I love the name Pearl and I think Opal would be a really sweet sib set (matchy I know, but I like it).

  • I really like the name Pearl and I have never heard of the Will Ferrel video before.
  • I have never seen or heard of the video, but must say Pearl is not my style at all. I have a friend IRL that used Pearl as he DDs mn because her DH wanted to, and to this day regrets it...her DD is now 10.

  • I had seen the video before, but didn't remember that her name was Pearl.

    When PP mentioned the video, I didn't even know what she was talking about. Then I followed the link, and remembered I had seen it before. So obviously it didn't make a huge impression on me, eventhough it was funny.

  • Yeah, I don't have a clue what vid you're talking about...you're safe, IMO.

  • I automatically think of pearl from Will Ferrel. Sorry
  • I love the Will Ferrell sketch, but I don't automatically think of it. I think it's actually a cute association though.

  • I don't think I've ever seen that video because I have no idea what you're talking about.  When I think of Pearl I think of the Scarlet Letter.  I like the name!
