Dodgy initials??!

Hiding · Sep 22nd, 2009, 14:00 PM

Hubby and I are torn between 2 girls names and figure we'll decide on the day if LO is a girl. Problem is, the one I think I might just prefer will give her dodgy initials!! It would be B (Bella) J (Johannah) S (our surname) - would you hate this if you were at school??? Do you think its a real issue? I was against it last night but I love it at the same time. Johannah is a family name so I'd love to use it.

Honest opinions though, if its too rude, say so!

Ta girls!

hows bjs rude? bj maybe but not with the s on it

Hmmm, I suppose - it was just something I immediately thought (dirty mind perhaps!!). Mind you, her main initials would be BS which is bad enough so if she could live with that then BJS is no different....you think???

Sorry but BJs is not great!! Potential teasing when she's older and all her classmates have found out what one is.

Agggh I know, I feel disappointed as I'd love to use it. Hubby thinks its asking for her to be teased too.

Grrrrrr.

Thanks for your opinions though

My best mate is called Bethan-Jayne Suleman!

In school everyone knew her initials and no1 teased her about it.
Its up to you but i personally think go for it x

OoOoOh food for thought!! I just dont know!!!

Will talk to hubby again. Mind you, everyone thinks we're having a boy so might not be an issue!

Thanks Vinnypeanut!
