My husband and I are expecting our first baby next week and we can't decide on a boys name ... Last night we finally agreed on one name that we both like, but realized it is the name of one of his friends sons names. It's not a particularly close friend, we might catch up with them once a year or so.... But still. Is it bad taste to use your friends childrens names?? It's not a particularly popular name so I wonder what they'd think. I can't decide if I would be annoyed, myself, if someone we knew used our girls name, for example.

Can I get your opinions, especially if you've been through the same dilemma, or had your childs name used by a friend?
