My friend has just had a baby do i tell her the name she choose is wrong?
Answer:
Haha, such an old joke yet people are still taking you seriously!!
Um ya...it took me a minute to figure it out, but honestly I don't think there is a "nice" way to tell her without hurting her feelings. Sorry.
Although you may feel like the name is wrong, she obviously likes it. I dont think that you would be wrong in telling her how you feel, but remember to be gentle. She is in an emotional state right now and the last thing that she needs is a friend baggin on her because he/she doesnt agree with the name she choose for her baby. Remember you are entitled to your opinion, but that doesnt mean that you have to make it known all the time. There is a perfect place and time for everything :D
Hmm this one is debateable, If her surname was Kerr and she'd named the Child Wayne then this could be a problem. But as its Carr, Wayne Carr Hmmm... Yes! it could be interpreted as something else Lol.
I suggest you speak to you friend about your concerns, saying something like... If your surname was Spencer would you call your child Mark? After Marks & Spencers (uk)
Good Luck!
play on the words, she will realise it herself. Go in there one day and say 'where little wayne carr"... emphasize it... she'll get it.
ohh i totally just got that LOL wow that is funny. There isnt much you can do really, i mean its her kid. you could suggest it as like a sarcastic thing like " omg you realize his name sounds like." but i wouldnt say " you named your kid a bad name"
Personally, I think it would be wrong to tell her the name she chose for the baby is "wrong". The name she chose is one she likes. You can tell her your opinion, but to judge weather it's wrong or right is personal, and should not be said. Remember, she is your friend, and your should respect her decision as HER decision, and not one you should make for her. How would you feel if the name you chose for your baby was judged and baulked at..especially by a friend??
P.S. Oh GAWD!! Am I slow!! Very funny!!
What's wrong with Wayne Carr?
If you don't care for it, tell her, but don't expect her to tell you how brilliant you are for your opinion.
it is not up to you to tell your friend that you think the name is wrong because it is her baby..if she doesn't change it she will always know that you don't like the name she picked for her child
I think this whole thing is a joke lol
Pretty funny though.
I don't think it is ever appropriate to tell someone the name of their choice is "wrong". It would certain, and did, hurt my feeling when people said that to me.
