Baby Names

Overkill...

So I used to watch supernanny when I was 12 or so and so I was just browsing through the list of episodes because it lists the names of the family members and this is one family:

Emily (11)

Emmett (9)

Emma-Jo (7)

Emerson (4, boy)

Ember (1, girl)

Is it just me or is that a bit overkill with the Em?

  • Ember!  They were trying way too hard to keep the "Em" alive. 

    I wonder after introducing the whole family, they conclude with, "They all start with "Em!"

  • I wonder if they are done having children. I can't think of anymore em names. I guess that would be a factor in their family plan?

    And YAY for Emerson on a boy! A friend of mine has a little boy named Emerson and it strikes me as odd to name a girl this.

  • Great names, but definitely overkill!! If there was a word for the point that is beyond overkill...it would be that word. haha

    Crap! Forgot about Emery. I guess they could also make up another em name. Actually, this reminds me, I seen Emsley before.

    Ember is the name my sister is goin to use if she is having a little girl. She is goin to be Ember Jo. I like it. I wouldn't use it but I like it, I think that its very pretty.
