Hubby and I have been going back and forth on names. We decided that we like Elisabeth for a girl and Jack for a boy.

We told this to a few family members and OF COURSE his sister has to say,

"You mean, like in Pirates of the Carribean?"

*facepalm*

UGH!!!!! I was so miffed - and felt stupid at the same time.

Those names are so popular that I doubt everyone will make those assumptions. Most people will just assume that you liked the names, not that you named them after Pirates of the Caribbean characters. Now if you named them Kiera and Johnny, you might have a problem, but Jack and Elisabeth aren't exactly uncommon names, or names that are unique to that movie. I wouldn't have made that connection and I love those movies.
