why is Claire a "fat girls" name?
is there a disproportionally large (no pun intended) number of chubby girls named Claire?
how did we come to this conclusion?
Is a namesome kind of a self fulfilling prophecy?

Re: why is Claire a "fat girls" name?
in the far past, the Breakfast Club and other areas.
but my dh told me about a different name coincidence thing today, which made me think of this.
I am not trying to offend...it is a saying.
and I have ZERO....ZILCH idea if it's actually true.
hence the question.

It's a line from the Breakfast Club.
I never quite understood why he said that other then to annoy Molly Ringwald.

maybe that's why the Claire's these girls know are thin...they are overcompensating.

Claire reminds me more of the Girl Steve/Brandon dated on 90210 than of Breakfast Club.
I love the name--not to get the ball rolling but I think "I" have a fat girl name

Re: why is Claire a "fat girls" name?
I think we all associate names with people that we know/knew/or came in contact with that had some kind of impact on us...to me the name Claire is associated with a drunken sloth...a girl I once knew (a friend of a friend) that was the worst drunk I ever knew...

and its purely just because of the Breakfast Club  no real life truth to it.
I've never met a Claire I didn't like.

Honestly, I never thought of Claire as a "fat girl" name. I really like that name as a matter of fact.
