Just throwing in yet another 2 cents worth ... so what am I up to now?... 6 cents I think LOL I firmly believe that if a child is going to get picked on it's because there is a bully present wanting to bully someone and they will find 'something' to pick on another child about regardless of there name. There are probably loads of other obvious things a bully could find like glasses, braces, the childs clothes, hair, ears, nose, ANYTHING! To say that kids with a different name will get picked on is quite frankly less then intelligent. There are millions of people with different names out there and the majority of them probably didn't get picked on. Sure lots of them probably did but I'm sure there have been way more Tom, ****'s and Harry's, Jane, Mary's and Anne's picked on over the years.
mummyof4 Jett is extremely common these days and even if kids as innocent of yours make that comment it's a far cry from being teased or picked on. Kids can feel the energy behind being bullied or 'teased' as opposed to a genuine curiosity kwim
