Celebrity Influence?

[magcnurserybaby.livejournal.com]

My hubby and I rarely agree on girl names but we had long ago agreed on Erica........then Erica Christensen got big. Yes, that is also our last name, spelled exactly the same.

So am I right, would it be cheesy to use Erica now??

And I know I'm gonna get alot of "if you like it use it" but won't that be the first thought that comes to mind upon hearing it, in which case I don't want to use it?

But I think that's a good thing actually... if you like a name (e.g Bryan, Christian) and then end up marrying someone whose last name is too close to it (Bryant, Christiensen etc)... then chances are, you ended up with a last name that you love, and even though your son can't have that as his first name anymore, he still has it in his last name. There are some really unfortunate last names out there...
