All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

I haven't lost my father but there are definitely songs that make me feel a connection to him that are special to me. "You are my Sunshine" Anything with yoddling.

What's interesting is your inability to understand that we like both names. And that the something else option is pointless, because we dont really want anything else.
First of all, it is WAY to early in the equation to get attached to only two names. Second, have you polled friends and family? How about Facebook buddies?
Having a name you don't like really stinks, and this one unfortunately has a lot of downside potential. Very little upside potential, unless you're naming him after a multi-millionaire relative who's writing him into the will.
You need to think of your kid first, not yourselves, and this is true in so many more areas than just the baby name.
Would YOU be okay with either of those names for yourself?
Maybe ask yourself that question and be honest about your answer.
Do you have a brother who you can trust to give you an honest answer?

I would be fine with either name, a name is what you make it.
And thanks for the parenting advice.
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

So, what are you kids names?
My best friends name is Kelly (male).
I assume you would hate that since it is one of those names that are used for both genders.
I tell him that his dad wanted a boy and his mom wanted a girl and they were both happy when he was born. But that is about it.
What you are missing is that there will be teasing regardless of the name. It might be worse if the name is way out there, but Julien is not.

As long as he avoids names like Corey!!!
No Lecter.... the childs life will be over even before it began. Kids can not tolerate teasing... its simply too much.

If a boy call him Bob. Bob Bedard.
If a girl Bodacious (this assumes the Mrs's genes trump yours). Bodacious Bedard

Now, don't get all defensive. You must have some guy friends you trust. Instead of asking them "which" name they like better (or dislike least), ask if they like either name -- if you get a noncommittal answer "it's only important that YOU TWO like it," or "it doesn't matter what other people think..." that tells you they are not crazy about the name. Do you have a brother you can get an honest opinion from?
See naming a kid should be about more than some song you're sentimental about. It's one thing to name a kid after a beloved relative, but a song, for Lady Gaga's sake...the kid has to LIVE with this name. How about getting a family pet and naming it Jude/Julien?
You have not really commented on whether YOU would like the name for yourself. Maybe try to work your way up to honesty on that one.
Where is LOG? Maybe he can comment on whether his Jude still goes by that name.

See post #79 in this thread.
I am an only child so no brothers...
And we are talking about naming our son after a relative... just not in a sense that you find conventional.
Sounds to me that you think everyone should just be vanilla and blend in.
