I love the name [name]Theodore[/name] but the problem I have is my surname is [name]Baker[/name]. What do Berries think? Is this a problem?
Confession: I had to google [name]Theodore[/name] [name]Baker[/name] to see who he was. I don’t think most kids in his generation are going to think of [name]Theodore[/name] [name]Baker[/name] the music scholar, and even if they do, its not a bad association.
Its more the nickname associations with [name]Theodore[/name] namely is [name]Ted[/name] an automatic nickname for it? I guess his name would already be in his clothes!!!
[name]Young[/name] Theodores these days are called [name]Theo[/name], or [name]Theodore[/name], or perhaps [name]Teddy[/name] when very young, but never [name]Ted[/name].
Besides, you could do worse for namesakes.
