babynamesMy teacher and his wife had their first daughter today/yesterday. They named her Charlie Victoria.
I think it's pretty. I'm pretty sure the 'Charlie' is after Chaplin, as he is a die-hard Chaplin fan, and a Drama teacher. I think Charlie isn't too bad on a girl.
You?

Stephanie .... Stevie

But I'm not a fan of given names as male names.

That actually happened to me once.
I had a guy in my class called Ashley and he put his hand up and the substitute thought he was joking and sent him to the office. :/

Date: 2006-12-21 10:42 pm (UTC)Besides, it just clashes so horribly with Victoria, which is a serious, old-fashioned name...if they were going that route, they should've made her Charlotte Victoria, and just gone for Charlie as the nn.

Should have saved it for a son and made him Charles Victor, lol.

Date: 2006-12-21 01:21 am (UTC)(I really dislike nicknames as full names and boy's names on girls, so this name is two bad trends in one for me. And yeah, Sydney's a boy's name, but I bet it's more common for girls now.)

Date: 2006-12-21 01:38 am (UTC)But it's not as trendy as Addison... so at least she won't be known as Charlie P...?
Which would be even worse.

Date: 2006-12-21 08:25 pm (UTC)I think you should call the kid something long (Charlotte, Danielle, Andrea) and then make a nickname so the child doesn't end up being mistaken for a boy on class lists (Charlie, Danny, Andy, etc).

Date: 2006-12-21 07:54 pm (UTC)I don't like it so much on a girl just because i hate Charlotte and most Charlie's are Charlotte's.
