So this is why you don't tell your friends potential names.
My husband likes Sophie or Sophia
I haven't really decided what I like yet.
So coincidently a lot of people we know suggested it. One woman
hated it!!
I happened to tell a good friend of mine and she could not help herself ... She said she wanted that name.
She's not even sure if she wants a child , and said I can have the name. Then she said maybe I can find a different one ! Lol
I'm not taking it off the table yet because my husband REALLY likes it.
I should have kept my mouth shut! Lol

Re: My husband likes
I KNOW! Well I did laugh and said well we might use it , maybe as a middle because my husband REALLY loves the name. She was cute and tried to think of other names for me.
Lol! Thanks , I knew people would find humor in this. I feel bad because I love her to pieces!! However I agree that I can't take it off the table yet! Until my DH and I decide on a name .
Tell her, sorry to burst her bubble, but 22,158 people beat her to the name last year alone.

Hahahaha! Amen!!! Plus, it will not be the only Sophie or Sophia in the world and no one can tell you that you can't use a name. I wouldn't take it off the table!
This! I don't believe in claiming names anyhow but claiming the most popular name in the country is especially LOL-worthy!

My SIL is due 5 weeks before me, doesn't know what she's having. She has said from the start, if its a boy, she's using Judah. We are having our third boy. Our last son was going to be Jonah or Lucas and we went with Lucas. This time, we still love Jonah. When I told her this, she got all self righteous and sent me an email about how she "is hurt I am doing this to her" because its similar to Judah. She wanted me to promise not to use it. She also decided to say Jonah is the only other boy names she loves and might use it. I refuse to fight about it and told her to use what she loves and we will do the same; it's no one else's business and neither of us own the name. Claiming names is just ridiculous. Go with what you love!
This EXACTLY.
