Josh and Anna Duggar have come up with a name for their baby:

Mackynzie Renèe Duggar

Apparently Mackynzie is after Josh's counsin and Renee is Anna's middle name.

oh poor Anna... I still wonder if she has realised what she's done...

hate the name Mackynzie, or any other spelling of said name but Renée is alright.

ew to mackynzie. Seriously?!all the duggars (sans Jrodyn) have non kree8tiff spellings--they couldnt follow that?

[feelslike-2day.livejournal.com]

oops. Jordyn*

[corielcries.livejournal.com]

And Jinger. Though I could pass on Joy-Anna and Johannah in the same family.

[feelslike-2day.livejournal.com]

oh right- i forgot about that one. Yeah aside from those two, at least they arent all Kree8tiff. Though i definitely agree with you on the second part there...and jeremiah and jedidiah?

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

I think the very fact that there are 18 of them all starting with J is confusing enough, even without considering the similar-sounding ones like Jeremiah and Jedidiah, or Joy-Anna and Johannah. 18 kids must be hard enough to keep track of, but when they all start with the same letter...!

[fangirlism]

Aren't Jeremiah and Jedidiah twins?

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

Yes.

[night-sky-dream.livejournal.com]

Ew.

Yuck really. They couldn't just go with Mackenzie if they had to?

Also, are they going to stick with an "m" theme?

[corielcries.livejournal.com]

Last time they were on the Today show I think they said they wanted to use a M theme. Not sure though!

[schexyschteve.livejournal.com]

That's awful. There are SO MANY lovely M names. And the Y doesn't make it special!

[lovablemess.livejournal.com]

Wow! What? Why? That's terrible. I definitely didn't think the Duggars would be the ones to resort to crazy names.

[velkoria.livejournal.com]

I have one word for you... Jinger.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

Haha, exactly.

[pythianlegume7.livejournal.com]

I ALWAYS pronounce it like its spelled, to rhyme with Singer.

[sandtree.livejournal.com]

I have to admit, I love the Duggars, but that is an awful name. Although I'm not surprised, what with Jinger and Jordyn-Grace...

At least Renee is nice, and I kind of like the idea of passing on the mother's middle name. My great-grandmother, grandmother, and mother all have the same middle name, Ruth, but I don't. I like my middle name, but I think I might start the tradition again if I ever have a daughter, and give her the middle name Ruth.

[calamitysxchild.livejournal.com]

my family is similar! although, with not as many generations. ;) Both my mother and I have Renee as middle names, and I told her if I ever have a daughter she's getting it too.

Hate the spelling, don't really like the name, but it could be a lot worse. And least it's a somewhat normal, pronounceable name even if it's NMS.

[snailrevolution.livejournal.com]

MacKenzie would be a lot better. I'm not a fan of it anyway but it looks so much better. And look! It's got caps in the middle! Have that be your "creative" outlet. :p

Renee is pretty.

[solitudete.livejournal.com]

Mackynzie is awful enough, but how the hell are you supposed to pronounce "Renèe"? As a French speaker I really can't wrap my head around the placement of that accent grave.

[a-tergo-lupi.livejournal.com]

That's my bet.

[juniorfan29.livejournal.com]

Ew. Do not like. It's weird to see people say they prefer Mackenzie, if they absolutely HAD to go with this name because even though I know it's supposed to be the same name...to me, these are two different names. IMO, Mackenzie= Mah-KEN-see and Mackynzie= Mah-KIN-zee.
