On the topic of names.... George Carlin joke
DH just emailed this to me bc he hates all the boy names I like (I love Mason, Aidan, and Jared). He thinks they're too girly!! I thought it was pretty funny. No offense to anyone using any of these names, just thought i'd share. Some of you may get a laugh out of it.
George Carlin: And I'm getting really sick of guys named Todd. You know? Yeah, it's just a goofy... it's a goofy ******* name, okay? Hi, what's your name? "Todd! I'm Todd. And this is Blake and Blair and Blaine and Brent." Where are all these goofy ******* boys' names coming from? Taylor, Tyler, Jordan, Flynn. These are not real names!
[laughter]
George Carlin: You want to hear a real name? Eddie. Eddie is a real name. Whatever happened to Eddie? He was here a minute ago. Joey and Jackie and Bobby and Phil. Bobby and Tommy and Danny and Bill. What happened, *Todd*? And Cody, and Dylan, and Cameron, and Tucker. Hi, Tucker. I'm Todd. "Hi, Todd! I'm Tucker." **** Tucker; Tucker sucks.
[laughter]
George Carlin: And **** Tucker's friend, Kyle.
[laughter and applause]
George Carlin: You know? Yeah. There's another soft name for a boy. Kyle. Soft names make soft people. I'll bet you anything that ten times out of ten, Nicky, Vinny and Tony will beat the shit out of Todd, Kyle, and Tucker.
[laughter]

Re: On the topic of names.... George Carlin joke
My DH is a big George Carlin fan, and that name speech of his is the reason why I'm relieved we're having girl! Before we knew what we were having, every time I suggested a boy's name, DH was like, no it's too girly or different. If we ever do have a boy, I foresee me and DH having a hard time agreeing on a name....Thanks, George Carlin

Re: On the topic of names.... George Carlin joke
This was actually a huge sticking point in our decision to name our DS some of the name we liked were "soft" and ultimately we went with a classic, all american boy name.

My husband says this every single time I mention a "popular" name.
