Heard someone calling their child in the shop I work at.

Rooney.

I'm guessing this child was named after Wayne :( But my first thought was Rooney Mara! I love her but I think she's the only person who can pull off Rooney as a first name, lol.

I'm usually open about names, but I can't think of anything but Ferris Bueller when I hear Rooney. No.

My only reference is Rooney Mara (and Andy Rooney, I guess) so I kind of like it.

So I really love the band Rooney, but any time I mention them my boyfriend says "ROO-NEY!" like Cameron does when he makes that fake phone call in Ferris Bueller.

So of course now I do, too.... so to have that as a name? I'm sure she's going to get that quite often. Maybe not as often as if your name was Stella or Adrian but I'd hate to have that happen my whole life.

I don't know, I think that Rooney Mara pulls it off fairly well (even if it isn't really her first name). I think of it as pretty, just because I think of Rooney Mara as pretty.

I also thought of Rooney Mara first.
