Is the name Jocelyn Wood asking for our daughter to be picked on?

Question

Our last name is Wood and it makes it very challenging to pick a name! We both like the name Jocelyn but are wondering if when she's a teenager, kids will think of jostling "wood."

Answer

I didn't see an obvious pun so I think you'll be okay!

Answer

Kids will tease you no matter what your name is. And that's not as bad as some names I've heard over the years.

Answer

I think it's fine. Isn't having the last name Wood the worst?!? I have thrown out many names for the same reason!

Answer

I didn't think that until you pointed it out and tbh I don't see a problem.

Answer

My fiancé's last name is Cox. Kids made fun of that but it didn't traumatized him. Just a couple of penis jokes throughout high school and that was all. No biggie.

Answer

My SIL wanted to name her daughter Holden. Their last name is Peters. After putting it together and making the realization, my niece ended up Sophia. Lol

Answer

Eh, I think it's fine. My friends surname is Hoare. Yep, like "whore". She had the WORST time trying to choose names!

Answer

Being a teenager is hard already. Don't make it worse
