by socialchick~ I need your help and I need everyone to comment so that I can win the battle between me and my husband. Here is where the battle started. A friend of mine (a mother of four) told me that I should let Mr. Social name this child because I was having a hard time thinking of something. So I told him that he could come up with a name for a girl because we already have a boy name. We have had it since we were pregnant with Miss Priss. That was a big mistake!
Last night while sitting in bed we started talking about girl names. I thought that we were doing good because we both like Abby but then the conversation took a wrong turn. Mr. Social blurts out with Thursten. I immediately said heck no. He then argues with me that I told him that he could name the baby.
Let me fill you in on where Thursten is coming from. His real name is Theodore and my name is Kristen. So he put the names together. I asked him if he was serious like 22 times and he said yes that he liked it a lot.
So this is where you come in. He told me to put it on the blog and see what everyone else thought. I told him no and that there was no way someone was going to like the name Thursten. He told me that I was scared because you (the readers) would like it. So let me know what you think. If someone actually writes that they like the name, I will get a pistol, find you , and shoot you . Bossychick I'm watching you! Ok, ok, you can write your honest opinion but I need everyone to comment so that I can have more no than yes. Please don't let me down! Don't make a pregnant person cry!
my vote is no. how about Kreodore? No seriosly, what about Tristen?...may be too much like your name. Mr. Social is cracking me up! LOL

I am not going to lie, I like it. I've never heard it for a girl its always been a boy...so if that does end up being her name I would change the spelling without the U in it and may put a I instead...wait what happend to chloe clare?

Posted by: sassychick | September 16, 2009 at 10:14 AM
ummm...no, no, and no! not for a girl!
Posted by: babychick | September 16, 2009 at 10:19 AM
its like that old man from Giligans Island!

As in Thursten Howell the 3rd? C'mon Lovey Darling!
Never allow a man to pick a baby name. Just let him agree to one you select.
Posted by: Pines Lake Redhead | September 16, 2009 at 10:40 AM
ok my vote is no!
He can't really be serious....Thursten? Really?
Posted by: MandaLi | September 16, 2009 at 10:46 AM
Sorry, but the answer is no. You are pregnant nine months. You have morning sickness. You have stretch marks. You have blood taken 1,000,000 times during your pregnancy. You are poked, prodded and beyond uncomfortable. You are taking care of other small children while pregnant with this one. You go through labor. You recover from labor. YOU GET TO NAME THE BABY! But both of you have to agree that the name is right... I will give Mr. Social that much.
(But that's just me. I'm sure if it's a girl and you name her Thurston, everyone will learn to love the name.)

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!What is Mr. Social thinking!!! And please don't name it after Claire lol jk claire!!! This is too funny!!!
Posted by: kelly | September 16, 2009 at 11:12 AM
a girl at work just said technically it would be Thristen! Kreodore is another suggestion she came up with. HAHA this is too funny
Posted by: kelly | September 16, 2009 at 11:19 AM
NO, NO, NO!!! It makes me think of something like "I'm thirstin' for somethan to drank".
Posted by: Crystal | September 16, 2009 at 11:21 AM
No, especially for a girl. Can you imagine all the jokes she'd be put through in school?!
Posted by: Jessica W. | September 16, 2009 at 11:35 AM
I'm going with Heck no. Obviously it's not my baby but I am definitely not a fan! We went to school with a boy named Thurston. I'm all for using boys names for girls but not in this case!
Posted by: plannerchick | September 16, 2009 at 11:40 AM
its a good boys name not a girl
Posted by: johnny | September 16, 2009 at 11:51 AM
NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Heather Suber | September 16, 2009 at 12:33 PM
I vote no. That's a boy's name anyway (and not a good one!)
Posted by: uncommonblonde | September 16, 2009 at 12:37 PM
jenna said put him in a coma before its too late!
Posted by: kelly | September 16, 2009 at 12:43 PM
BIG negative!
Posted by: Malyn | September 16, 2009 at 12:47 PM
Of course, I'm a no. But I do know a young girl named Tristen (like singer said) and I always thought that was a cute name!
Posted by: photochick | September 16, 2009 at 01:38 PM
why not Ickenda? from Rick and Brenda! Ha
Posted by: pappy | September 16, 2009 at 05:01 PM
No way, but the way Mr. Social came up with the name was sweet. You should give him points for trying.
Why are you worrying about girl names anyway? Didn't you read the Chinese calendar? LOL!
