Question....Please answer!!!

So my husband and I had our names down to two we liked. I wasn't really telling all my friends and was completely shocked when my friend had her baby 2 months ago and she used both of our names for the first and middle name of her little boy. You must know she had NO clue we were thinking about these names. I never told her because she had a different name picked out for her baby. Now with our baby being due in two weeks we have tried to think of other names but we keep going back to our favorite name. Is it weird if I use the same first name as my friends baby? We live 15 minutes away from each other but our kids will not even be in the same school whenever that may be so I think it's okay to use the name we wanted right?

Do it! When it all comes down to it, it is your decision on the name you like.

If this is a super close friend, or if you want your kid to be friends with her kid, I'd go with another name. There are tons of good ones out there. :) Can you do the other name you like (her son's middle name) as your baby's first name?

nicknames can be different

Your kids so I think you get to decide what you want the name to be even if someone else has used it recently. If you are worried about it just talk to her about it. She may surprise you and not care at all. Either way though I say use what you like.

Go for it! Surely you've met other Rebeccas before? And boys with LM's name? Unless it is one heckuva unique name, I think it's totally fine to use it. And if the two boys end up becoming life long friends, it still won't be a big deal.

Go with the name you want. Don't worry about other people and other people's babies. I am sure that if you just explain that you had that name in mind the whole time, she would not care! Just do it! Don't be scared!

I would do it, but I'd probably discuss it with the friend first, just to make sure that she's ok with it. Not that it really matters since it's your child, but I'd just be nice like that. :-)

Go for it!

Name him whatever you want! The name police aren't gonna come and get you! : ) Our little guy's middle name will be the same as Little Man's first name. I hope that's ok : )
