My sister has me a little annoyed

[browneyedhunni85]

They just got a new puppy and they named him Charlie. It's on our boy name list and she knows this. I even told her not to name him that. Seriously, out of all the names. Grrr!

[TrudyCampbell]

That would really piss me off.

[shevacc]

That's really obnoxious. I'm sorry. How old is she?

[browneyedhunni85]

I sent her a text earlier saying that we are changing our cats name to Jayden.

Do not let that stop you from using that name. Out of principle and because the dog will only be around a short time in comparison to a human.

I would be totally annoyed too. How lame!

This comment paired with the sadness in the eyes of the dogs in your avatar has me dying. I really need to get to bed.

Browneyedhunni, that was a jerk move on her part. I would be pissed, too.

Kirk the Human and Kirk the Cat? 

[carawestt]

I would be upset too.

This! I didn't factor in animal names when naming A and won't for a future kid. Nobody will think it's weird!

Yeah, that's pretty obnoxious.  I'd still go ahead with Charlie for your future DS, regardless.

[steph196]

That would make me upset also. I'm sorry!

[Deleted]

That's annoying but I wouldn't let it stop you if you have another boy.

[jenbelle]

Grrrr. That would really piss me off. Use it anyways!!!!

[jnoellee]

I'd be really mad, throw a big fit, and make her change the dogs name.

[sandj82110]

I would be pissed, not cool.

[lauranicole91]

This is why I stand by not using human names for pets. (Hopefully) No one plans on naming their child Magic, Bloo, Rocket, Etc.

Except after several years of pets I broke tradition with our cat, Ellie. Shit.

I say, still use it! So rude that she KNEW you wanted to use the name and still used it. Ugh.

[teamhayes]

Obnoxious

[silverjm]

That's a jerk move since she knew you wanted to use it.

So our first dog was named Benji when we adopted him. BIL & SIL were pissed and wanted us to change his name without informing us why. Well it turns out they named their child Benjamin. Well Ben is 8 and Benji died over 5 years ago. The dog and child were never in the same room together so he didn't get confused when we called his name (SIL stated this was a reason after her child was born). Looking back we thought it was silly of them to be pissed off, they never met the dog because they don't travel, we are 100 miles away. We currently have a Joey, Joseph when he's bad. Now granted, we never named our dogs, just kept the name they received in the rescue. But as Dahli said dogs don't have a long lifetime.

[TrudyCampbell]

Dahli is right, please promise you'll still use the name!

[dixeedeluxe]

I would also still use it for a person.

I have a friend who had a dog with his ex and then used that name for his daughter with his wife. The dog is gone (with the ex) and no one remembers. The name is shared with the princess that every little girl will dress up as this Halloween.

Dogs don't live forever. People will forget. Maybe your sister won't forget but YOLO YOLO YOLO!!!!!!

My aunt and uncle had a cat named Katie.. and then they had a daughter named Katie. Legitimately, we called them "Katie the Cat" and "Katie the Kid"

[christidee]

I would be pissed too. But, I would still use the name.

[browneyedhunni85]

She said my nephew is the one who named him. I mentioned it to my parents tomorrow and she brought up that I have a white trash uncle with the first name Charles and his son is Charles too. Yeah, Charles would be his proper name but we would never call him that. Ugh, I better have a girl. Lol.
