Oh, that sucks Brownie!!!
I love the name Charlie too - DH & I have already decided if we have a girl (when we eventually get UTD) we are calling her Charlie Eve.
Suggest, changing your last name by dead poll? LOL.

Love it, go for it
I'm guessing not a serious question, but my answer would have to be no.
My surname is Lamb, we're having Sean (or perhaps Ewan) for a boy and Rosemary for a girl  I also thought that we could copy Nicole Kidman because Sunday Rose [roast] Lamb has quite a nice ring to it.....

Like our generation doesnt know about Thunderbirds or The Brady Bunch??
Obviously this is a troll and not really worth serious comment but LOL at your friends nzlisajo, I married into an odd surname and now have to be super careful with names otherwise our poor child will either sound like a stripper / porn star or just general play-ground teasing fodder.

I like WestiesGirl idea & don't forget girls often change there surnames when they get married.
I put a lot of thought in to a name as they are going to have that for the rest of their lives, thought childhood, working, & so on so something to take into account.
