The initials "BJ"?

Do you think it's cruel to give a girl the initials BJ (first and middle name)?  I know I'm no where near naming a child, but I'd like to have the group's opinion before getting my heart set on a "B" name.  I will be using my grandmother's name for the middle (J) name.

Re: The initials "BJ"?

  • I wouldn't do it!!!!

    Although - I had a friend whose first and last initials were BJ - her middle initial was a J as well - she was a monogram freak and had everything monogramed "BJJ"

  • I don't see anything wrong with it. I think first, last initial BJ might be questionable, but not first, middle.

  • Poppyseed's initialls are BJB. I don't think it's a big deal!

  • I don't have a problem with BJ as first and middle initials, unless you're going to call her by her initials. How often do you use your first two initials only?

  • I won't judge unless you use random letters with silent sounds.

    And apostrophes.

    I wouldn't think too much of it being first and middle names.

  • I have an Aunt BJ (Betty Jean). But she was named during a different time. Naming a girl that now? No I wouldn't. Really it is just a set up for getting picked on IMO.

  • I don't think it's weird.  I knew a girl named Becky Jo and sometimes people referred to her as BJ but it isn't a big deal IMO.

  • I think if you had to ask, then you probably already know the answer... (And I wouldn't give my daughter the initials BJ. FTR.)
  • My aunt's name is Barbara Jean and I literally just realized her initials are BJ.  lol  In other words, I don't think it's a big deal.
