Did anyone accidentally name their kids after someone famous? on 13:43 - Dec 21 by Illinoisblue | Sort of. If you’ve seen the John Candy movie Uncle Buck the two kids have the same names as my kids. Which I was completely unaware of until someone pointed it out at the baby shower for kid #2. |
Baby Shower? Oh, you are in thestates | |

Did anyone accidentally name their kids after someone famous? on 16:00 - Dec 21 by allezlesbleus | Slightly off subject, but my wife and I named our daughter Etienne, after (imho) our greatest ever victory on foreign soil. We didn't really give the name much thought at the time . A few years later, we moved to France to find out that Etienne was a boys name..... |
Just as well for your daughter that we didn't beat Lokomotive Leipzig. | |

Evening Durwood! That's remarkable. Unless you met through a Bewitched Fan Club that your parents were members of. | | | |

Bit mean to call your second child "kid #2." | |

Darren actually, but I've been called worse! (Unless that was an obscure Bewitched reference that has gone over my head?) And I can confirm we didn't meet through a Bewitched fan club and nor did we name our kids Adam and Tabitha... | | | |

It's a Bewitched reference, Samantha's mother deliberately never got his name right! Durwood was one she used to him.
