How would you handle naming your baby a similar name to a friend who just had their baby?

Question

(We had always planned on naming our daughter Brooke and our friend's daughters name is Brooklyn) Thank you!!

Answer

Who cares!!

Answer

Just name her whatever you want to. My mom had told people she liked a name and her friends suddenly liked it too. My mom said regardless if they name their kid that she's going to name hers that. Thankfully my mom is due before her friend and is having a boy so she will get to use the name. :)

Answer

Who cares if it's similar or the same! They are named, she wasn't the first person ever to name her child that. 
I have a Peyton and two weeks late my friend name her daughter Paityn. I wasn't hurt or upset. Unless you've made up the name then I don't think you should be upset. 
I say name your baby Brooke because you love the name! :)

Answer

Depends on how close the friend is. I know that I would be very hurt and offended if a close friend of mine named her baby something so similar to mine.
