    People seriously name their kids "Brooklyn"? How odd. . .

    Really...why? I thought it was pretty, and a little different from Brooke.

    Maybe because I grew up in Brooklyn and to me it is a "place" and not a person's name. I make different connections with it. . .it would be like naming your child "Baton Rouge" or something like that!

    Guess it could be used as a combination type name (Brooke-lynn) like Joanne or Carolynn. Just never occurred to me in that way. To me Brooklyn is Brooklyn, NY!

    Ah...I understand. I've never been there, so I don't think I associate the city with the name. Now, if someone named their child 'Pittsburgh,' that would be odd to me....

    I love the name Brooklyn, but I know 3 Brooklyns born this year! I understand about associating a name with a city. My parents live in Mason, so it's weird to me when I hear someone name their baby that!

    I want to name a future daughter Isabel, after my grandmother, but Bella, Isabella, etc are really common now. I really like the name Ava or Eva too, but same thing.

    Good luck choosing a name!

    My daughter's middle name is Alane. I love all the names but I think I like Alaina Nicole better.


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!
