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.....

Hehe one of my best friends name's is Charlie and the guy she is engaged to has the last name of Brown so when they get married...... she will become Charlie Brown. They have a 1yo baby girl and they named her Lucy........... before realising Lucy is the name of Charlie Brown's friend lol

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.
