Today marked one month since we welcomed a little boy into the world. Boone Patrick was born on January 26th. So to celebrate, I made a Facebook post with a little message and a picture. One of the messages I received wasn't overly nice about our choice of names.
The lady who direct messaged me said "Shawn, you have a beautiful baby, but why would you name him Bone? I have never even heard of a dog with the name Bone, let alone a human. Please reconsider the name. Take care."
First off, if we did name him "Bone" I would expect messages like this, but his name is Boone, like Daniel Boone. But second, even if I did name him Bone, shouldn't that be mine and my wife's business only?
I am not mad or upset by this, I was just surprised, so I thought I would share it with the world. I guess if Boone doesn't like Boone when he gets older he can go by Frankenstein or something...
