The name "Renesmee" now has its own page on babynames.com and everything.

There's even a picture in the picture section, so it looks like at least one person has actually named their kid Renesmee. Somehow I'm not surprised. I kind of thought this would happen; I wouldn't be surprised if we see a lot more girls being named Renesmee within the next few years.

What are your thoughts? Would you name YOUR daughter Renesmee?

Renesmee is one if the ugliest names ever. I would never name my child Renesmee.

I kind of like this name. And I wouldn't mind calling her Nessie! Though I already opted with Isabella if I was going to name a daughter of mine after a Twilight character.

Yeah, I hated the name at first, but once I got used to reading it, I started to think it wasn't so bad. And it would be cool to abbreviate it as "Nessie." xd But if I had to name my daughter after a Twilight character, it would be Rosalie. Not that I like Rosalie; actually, kind of the opposite. But I do think it's a very pretty name. And for a boy, I like the name Carlisle. I don't know if I would actually name my son Carlisle, though, because then for the rest of his life, he would have to correct people on how to spell/pronounce his name. But it's fun to think about, isn't it? mrgreen

I'm not going to name any of my children after the names in Twilight simply because so many people will be doing that. Besides I could never in good consciousness name my kid Bella because that's the name of my female Great Dane. She was named before all the Twilight Hype happened and before I had even read Twilight. We got her about 3 years ago and I didn't read Twilight until two years ago. Besides her names is short for Belladonna. Since a lot of people will be naming their kids that I won't do that to my children. I like names that won't be likely to be seen connected with other children as then they can't say their name is unique to them if that makes sense.

... my faith in humanity has dropped even more.

Scary how people are so obsessed they're naming their kids after the Twilight Saga.

It wouldn't be the first time people get a name from a weird place, though. "Madison" has been a super-popular name for years, and that name originated from the movie Splash, when the mermaid named herself after a street sign. Before that movie came out, hardly anyone was named Madison. So you never know...  

[Queen-of-the-Rogue]

That's a good point. I vaguely remember the movie Splash but I think Madison is prettier name than Renesmee.

Yeah, I agree with that.  

[Queen-of-the-Rogue]

Madison is simple and Elegant whereas Rensemee is a mouthful and overly thought out. Nessie is cuter than Renesmee at points and it's simpler to say but I pity any child who has that nickname because they will be hounded by Twilight fans and Lock Ness Monster fans. Child wouldn't get a moment's peace.

I'm with you on that. gonk

And you know that one day, the kid's going to ask you what you named them after, and your answer is going to be THAT. The kid is not going to like you very much when they find out... especially when all of this blows over a bit, and such.

I mean, it's not as though BD was a stellar piece of literature either I need to go wash my mouth out having said BD and stellar piece of literature in the same sentence so... why would anyone want to inflict that sort of stigma on your child? It's not even a well thought out name.

Hm, I wouldn't mind naming my daughter Kanon, because I think that it's a pretty name, or maybe something from another book I've read or manga or anime, but I'm pretty reasonable. I think Seras would be a pretty name too.

Any kid who is named that is gonna get beat up. It's one of the ugliest names I've ever heard. I'd never give that name to my child.
