My kids names? ?

Question

A woman commented on my childrens names yesterday and i was quite offended

she said 'Oh wow they are quite different, poor children'

I dont see anything wrong with their names, they arent your common 'kaydens and ava's'

they are Charlie, Sonny, Rocco, Hunter and Ripley

my first three are boys and last two my 2 month old girls

Do you agree with this woman?

Answer 1

They are different names, but that doesnt give her the right to say "poor children" I actually love Sonny ( I know a girl named sonny and she is just the sweetest person). Charlie ( i love the name charlie for a girl its becoming popular)  isnt different at all. Hunter is a common name and very masculine and a good name. Rocco & Ripley are the ones I dont particularly like. Ripley just doesnt sound pretty and I just dont like Rocco, but its whatever you like, its your kids.

Answer 2

any

Answer 3

no she is wrong all of the names are beautiful yes they are unique but they are beautiful not the unique type that they are aweful

my favorites are Hunter and Ripley i love the name Hunter for a girl

Answer 4

Charlie is fine but the other four are horrible, seriously Hunter and Ripley for girls?

Answer 5

I like Ripley, not as in "believe it or not" but as in Ellen Ripley, just lucky you didn't call her twin NEWT. Personally I don't much like Rocco or Sonny, but they are fine names as long as you're not in one of those neighbourhoods where little oiks take the p**s out of a person just based on their name, then your kids may grow up very tough. However, due to Planetary overcrowding, perhaps you should stop having offspring now.

Answer 6

You just have 2 stop caring what other people think if you like the names then you should not care what other people think specially if it was a stranger!

I think the are unique and cute names! I love the names Charlie and Ripley the best though!

Hope this helps!  

Answer 7

I disagree with the woman completely! I love names that are a little different but not off the wall! Great job! And congrats on the new little ones!

Answer 8

they r not my favorite names but what that women said was just plane rude! i mean you dont say that to a person! if you like them they are great! that women peobably named her kids like ethel and gertrude!

Answer 9

Charlie is the only good one

Answer 10

Rocco and Ripley are the only one's I don't like although I do know a guy named Rocco. I think it was very rude of her to make that comment though. They aren't that unusual.

Answer 11

they are not outrageous. they are unique and interesting. i quite like some of them.

Answer 12

Yes, they are different.  I don't particularly care for the girls names (they are boy names in my opinion), but they are your kids and I'm sure you took lots of time to pick just the right name.  I would never say what she said to you.  That's just rude.  Especially since you didn't ask for her opinion.  I mean, "poor children...."?  Why?  A name is just a name.  Its people like her that are the problem.  Not your children nor their names.

Answer 13

The boy's names are fine.  Hunter and Ripley for girl's is kind of strange though.  But it's a done deal now so why bother worrying about it?

Answer 14

omg! i love ur kids names! they are adorable!!

Answer 15

Wow people just can't keep thier opinions to themselves. You obviously liked there names that is why you named them. Dont let petty people discourage you.

Answer 16

Charles is the only decent the other are social suicide...

Answer 17

I do about your daughters names. Hunter and Ripley are very masculine and harsh sounding for girls.

Answer 18

if your kids like their names then fine.

if they dont like their names then encourage them to lighten up about it. I had a friend named Huckleberry. Having a different name can be really cool when you have the right attitude about it.

And if they really don't like their names, they can change it or introduce themselves as a different one.

no biggie

Answer 19

I think they are all great names.  They're original.

Answer 20

i like charlie and rocco the others are a bit different but thats good because then when they are in high school there wont be ten of them like my friend michelle there are 13 michelles in our grade

Answer 21

i think they're very different but they're unique and nice at the same time.

If you like your childrens names i wouldn't worry about anything else.  Don't let an outsider make you feel bad.

Answer 22

What a dog of a woman, ignore her. Your childrens name are very cool, i love them. Especially Ripley (on my list for my children).

Answer 23

I really like Hunter and Ripley!  Charlie, Sonny and Rocco are pretty cute, too.  Rocco reminds me of Madonna's son.  Maybe the woman who responded to you was jealous because she has an ordinary name.

Answer 24

the boys names are ok...the girls names are out there....

i mean...ripley...

as in ripleys believe it or not...the horror.
