    I think the title is pretty self-explanatory, would you date someone with the same name as you?

    Yeah sure.

    Though it might be a little weird screaming my own name in bed...

    haha I never thought about that. I guess if I liked them... I don't know, it would be a little weird.

    It would be weird, but I guess if they were super awesome. Now the name of a close family member, that I would never do. I actually have a friend that all but one of the guys she dated had the same names has her brothers.

    :roflmao:

    Yeah, of course I would. It probably would be awkward sometimes, and VERY confusing, but if I liked the guy then that really wouldn't matter.

    It would be REALLY, REALLY weird, but if I was in love with them, then yes....

    Plus, I love my own name, and think it's awesome :grin:

    However, if I *did* date someone with my own name, then if we got a Civil Partnership, I wouldn't want either of us to change our surname to be the same as the other....

    Yeah, I'd be open to it. It would feel a little weird though, since my name is less common down here.

    Sure. There are a few different nicknames you can get out of Madeleine, anyway.

    So just thinking... if you were with somebody with the same name as you and had a child what would it call you?

    Yeah but I may have to give her a nick name. Saying my own name all the time would be too awkward. Whenever I talk about her it's going to be like talking in third person! lol

    *Changes name to Jace?*
    I TOTALLY WOULD.
    I would be Phill
    and he would Phil.

    :slight_smile: And we would live in a castle

    I would just for the novelty. Very few people have the same name as me.

    Although first I would have to get over being pissed off they shared my name, because I like it being unique.

    I'm surprised that so many people would date someone with the same name, I would, but I thought most people would find it weird.
