It's hard cause if you like a name, you like a name, whether someone else has that name or not.
There are many names that we like and hubby wanted but i knew people that had those names, so I refuse to have them too. Same as I used to teach dancing and I refuse to have the name of any child I have ever taught (which narrows it down alot), but I just feel funny using names that I can associate with someone else. Hubby doesn't see it as a problem, but I just don't like it.
I was gonna suggest Lucas too as an option which I love. Although, if you really really like Luke, and have your heart set on it, and your friend doesn't mind, well then it won't matter. As long as you're happy with the name.
I had a chat to DH and at this point i think Lukas is on top of our boy list YAY!! i do like Luke but feel a bit funny using the exact same name. DH doesn't really see the big deal but is willing to be flexible
Petalpetal also mentioned that Lukas is a bit longer and I think for that reason it goes better with the middle name (DH's name). So at the moment we are thinking Lukas Carl ......, I think that has a nice flow.
How exciting we have our names picked!!! Girls name is Sophie Patricia ..... (middle name after my grandmother).
