Ok so we have a Boston Terrier named Enzo and its the ONLY name I love so far for a baby boy, my bf likes it too but would it be too weird to name him by the same name??? The thing is my bf and I barely call our dog Enzo, we have nicknames for him...should we do it? Or no? :(

    i had to change my original first name of isabelle to a middle name cuz my bf had a dog named isabelle so i guess its all up to you guys if u think its weird then dont do it. if ur cool with it than go with it

    @Rissalee7 If it was for us I think we would do it but I think we will never stop hearing it from our families for naming our son after a dog.

    @PatientlyWaiting haha we were saying how funny it would be for us to call out to "Enzo" and they both come to us lol

    My baby girls middle name will be after my doggie. She died a couple weeks ago and she was 'my first norm's so I don't think its weird at all!

    thats how i feel about brady...love the name and kinda upset that i used it on my cat. but i do love my little brady cat sooo much..and the name suits him well. he has a brother named clancy. anywho...i say go for it. if the dog has nicknames just change him to one of those!

    Vincenzo (vin-chen-zoh) is an Italian boy name...nicknames are Enzo, Vin, Vinny, Cenzo...maybe name him Vincenzo and call him Enzo?

    My friend loved the name enzo but ended up naming her baby crue which is cute & unique!

    @sopheebaybee143 We already call our dog 'Mecho' as a nickname so it should be no problem ;)

    @Soon2BMomOf2under2 My brother said to name him Lorenzo so we can call him Enzo, good idea! Cool thing is my moms name is Lorenza :)

    @Cali83 I wanna kick myself in the butt for suggesting we name our dog that 3 years ago lol

    @hopeful1313 thanks hun, u made me feel better about possibly naming him Enzo :)

    Change the dog's name. Lmbo. I mean, is the dog gonna notice? Lol. :P
  • ExcitedForOctoberExcitedForOctober
    @Fate Lmao, we call him a million other names anyway...Mecho, Beigers...dont ask me why we call him that, they just stuck. My bf goes "hes gonna die sooner or later anyway" :(
  • FateFate
    How mean. Lol!
  • preggointxpreggointx
    Yea I would just forver call him by the other names...Enzo iis really cute
  • LovelyBootsLovelyBoots
    Name the baby what you want people are going to say things about any name I would do it too if I really liked the name:)
  • MikeandRonAdoptMikeandRonAdopt
    @ExcitedForOctober ... we're dealing with this too. We have 2 dogs (Holly and Lucy) and 2 cats (Abby and Willow) and love all of those names for a girl. lol
  • MollyMolly
    @MikeandRonAdopt I love those names, too! You could do Molly or Gabby instead of Holly or Abby for a girl.
  • MollyMolly
    @ExcitedForOctober I totally know what you mean. Anytime I think of a name for a new pet I immediately think it would be good for future kids, too. I say go for it and forget what anyone else thinks. It's your baby and your dog, no one else's!

    If I was having a girl I was going to make her middle name Lilly after my childhood dog.
  • ExcitedForOctoberExcitedForOctober
    @Molly When my bf got the puppy he asked me if I liked Enzo and another name and I picked Enzo, I would have NEVER thought "oh wait, I like that name for my baby" lol

    @Beautiful_Altar see but a middle name is on a whole different level lol...I just don't want to deal with all the stupid comments we will get...but I guess we have 4 and a half months to think it over ;-)

    @MikeandRonAdopt I love the name Willow :)

    @LovelyBoots Yeah I'm sure you are right! Me and my bf like really unique names and even if we didn't choose Enzo I'm sure people would talk about it.

    @preggointx Thnks!! :-D
