[Opinions] Re: Question about "unusual" names that celebs use.
in reply to a message by Evie Grace
Well, I've liked a name or most of them (Harlow, Shiloh, River to name a few) way before celebrities had their children. It would not stop me from using a name I loved for years just because they used it. People might assume I named them after whoever but it's not true.
I try not to assume they "copied" anyone. If I met a baby Harlow I would think it would remind of the celeb but not named after or copied by them. It's a huge pet peeve of mine when people assumme people named their child after celeb's or celeb kids just because it rises in popularity after.
Sometimes you don't think of a certain name until someone uses it and you start thinking it's nice it's not that you are copying them you might just never heard the name until then.
