<p>recent situations have caused me to address this situation, and i know i'm totally lame for bringing this up on CC, but it has been seriously irking me</p>
<p>could you ever date someone with the same name as your dad? brother? etc? something about that doesn't seem right to me... but does it really matter at all?</p>
<p>yes this is a stupid thread, but i can't ask my friends or my family (duh) so i'd appreciate some opinions</p>
<p>Oh, it's not stupid!! I think about names quite a lot, too! Haha! I think it would be weird to date someone with the same name as my dad! I guess it shouldn't really matter, but I always think of what the last name of my future husband will be, and if that last name will sound right with my first, as well! ;)</p>
<p>I never thought about that. In my culture, an older brother is basically a father to you, and both your father and older brother are to be heavily revered and obeyed.</p>
<p>So...I don't know. It would be very awkward (I assume) to date someone with a sibling's name or my father's name. When it comes down to it, if this person is absolutely incredible, and I'm really interested in it, I think I would get used to it. It would definitely be awkward (in the beginning, at least), though.</p>
<p>I would indeed find it weird for a girl to be named "Daniel".</p>
<p>I don't think I would be able to...too many awkward moments!</p>
<p>I have never thought of that, but I don't think it would really bother me, i mean, I'm sure you would get used to it and it wouldn't matter. I always wonder what would happen if you dated someone with the same name as you...like Alex or Taylor- girl and boy name. haha</p>
<p>^^ thatd be interesting lol</p>
<p>^ahhhh!</p>
<p>alex turner is currently dating this chick named alexa chung.
alex and alexa?
HOW FREAKIN ANNOYING IS THAT!?
I'd never be able to handle it.<br>
people refer to them as alex/a
ew. </p>
<p>hahaha. I'm completely convinced this is why their relationship is [hopefully] not going to work. I really don't like that girl!
=P</p>
<p>My brother had a friend Christopher (called Chris) who dated a girl named Christine or Christina (also called Chris) throughout middle and high school.</p>
<p>I once had a HUGE crush on a boy named Scott which is also the name of my brother and dad and I didn't think it was weird at all, but I don't know everyone's different. Perhaps were attracted to those with the same names as the one's who've cared for us our whole lives.</p>
<p>I've had a crush on somebody with my dad's name. That wasn't awkward. </p>
<p>I had a crush on somebody with my dog's name (Izzy)... now THAT was awkward.</p>
<p>Yah I can totally see how having a crush on/going out with someone with your dog's name would be awkward. I would never be able to take them seriously lol.</p>
<p>Imagine screaming out your parent's name during sex :P</p>
<p>Ummm...how about not, Cono? That goes way beyond just disturbing.</p>
<p>The names of all my family members are quite rare in America, so I doubt I'll ever have to deal with this problem.</p>
<p>Chill prole it's a joke :S Forgot where I was saying the joke though... Should have expected it.</p>
<p>Though it's a possibility if you're a girl dating a guy with a family member's name.</p>
<p>Yeah, my parents' names are both very un-American...</p>
<p>But my brother's...Huh, that's a good question. I've never been in that situation before, but I can see it being awkward in certain situations.</p>
