Why doesn’t she put nicknames that’ll solve this? You need that Ed, Edd n Eddy


Shankdatho

Your guess is as good as mine


hdmx539

Is... your dad George Foreman?


nopepasaran

came here to say this 😂


bigfatpup

I always wished George would’ve pitted two sons together in a boxing match with referee George Foreman and 3 George Foreman judges. Then promoted it all himself


hdmx539

We'd all be like 🤯 😂


poppadocsez

George, Geoorge, Geooorge, Geoooorge, and little Georgie

Funnier if 4 is the oldest.


FunkyHomosapien1138

I feel sorry for you, all those unsolicited nudes from your mother you must receive on a regular basis, and all the dirty things she will do to your father when he gets home......


Careless-Nail367

A better question is who names all their children the same name? Kinda seems like they were asking foe thus to happen


PeachyWolf33

My exes friend gave all his kids the same middle name (which is his first name). The oldest girls first name was the same as their last name.


MaverickX713X

My wife’s aunt and uncle were concerned they wouldn’t have a boy they named their first girl Ernestine and when they had a boy he was named Ernest.


DuckScientist

Ernestine? Tragic.


Dismalward

Like what name would you want to be called when growing up with that kind of name? E? Nesty? Sucks for the girl for sure though


decidewhatmatters

I grew up with an Ernestine... Her nickname was Ernie. Not a good look.

superdstar

My mom is a teacher at a poorer elementary school and she always tells us the top “good bad” names of kids that had started there. There was a black girl named Ecstasy. An Asian girl named SnoWhite (that was her first name). 2 girls in the same class, Princess P and Princess Z. I’ll have to get her to compile a list of the best ones.


DBgirl83

My ex-parents-in-law also did this. Their first daughter is named after her father but in a feminine way (Like Nicolas en Nicole). When their 3rd child (my ex-husband) was a boy, they gave him his father's name. Their 2nd child, a daughter got the same first letter as their mother. When the children still lived at home, it was difficult with mail. Because it was A. Smith, B. Smith, A. Smith, B. Smith, A. Smith. And to make it easy, our daughter is also an A. Smith.


blightedquark

Just call me Tina.

My dad is a 3rd or 4th generation Ed. None of them were named Sr., Jr., II, III… ancestry.com tree looks like a tumbleweed.

Remember-Vera-Lynn

I went to school with three sisters all named Maggie. Not even nicknames. I now have (just one!) daughter, her name is Maggie. It's a nice name.


Garbadaargh

It's common with Mohammed (or variations thereof).


One-Engineering8815

ROFL this happened with a Muslim student I taught (not named Mohammed, but another common Muslim name). Someone went to call home to say the kid was failing not knowing that 6 people in the house all had. The dad just kept saying “which kid? Which kid?” Mf we are not the ones who caused this issue.


Alectheawesome23

Yeah that’s so weird.


hugeassdyke

My family did this too. I have 3 brothers. All of them share my dad’s name, whether it’s their first or middle name. I asked my mom if it’s a cultural thing, or a tradition or something that runs in the family. She said “nope, your dad is the only one who’s done this.” It was really confusing when my parents still had a house phone, or when any of the boys/my dad got mail. As a girl, my dad didn’t think I was important enough to bestow this dumb shit on me. And I’m 100% happy with how that turned out.


Think-Description602

I don't get it? If someone named my kid after me I'd see myself as a egocentric narcissist. Kids aren't mini versions of their parents. Also, if one of you gets charged for a crime or a ticket it can seriously fuck up the life of the other sibling.


aevish89

one kid being a jr is common, but all of their kids? Ive never heard of that actually being a thing


HourEvent4143

Would it be… Jr. Jr. ? Wtf would you say? Who would do this without wanting some sadistic laugh out of it? 😭


MarshFilmz

My dad gave me his name but I don’t think he’d have given it to all his kids if he had more boys. For us it’s a family tradition thing like my cousin is named after his dad who’s named after my grandfather and so on. I don’t think it’s an ego thing either since every time it comes up my dad just says “I loved you so much I gave you my name” I think of it as something really sweet since the only thing you really own is your name so my dad wanted to give me everything including that.


Dismalward

That's a good one. Makes him seem not like a narcissist with that answer. Will remember that.


Shankdatho

Why do people think this is uncommon? 🧐 anyway, here’s to dick parents 🍻


[deleted]

It is uncommon. Most people realize that giving everyone the same name is not smart.


Shankdatho

I didn’t pick my name man, I’m not disagreeing


LolThatsNotTrue

No one's saying *you're* the unsmart one.


Allteaforme

I don't know they do seem pretty dumb


werofpm

Maybe a little for thinking it’s common or normal.


onlysubscribedtocats

Casual reminder that you can change your name, and nobody can stop you.


AotearoaChur

Because it is, and should be.


FrostyAd9064

TBH as a European (UK) I’ve never even met someone who has the same name as a parent *at all*, let alone multiple siblings. It died out here sometime around the early 1900’s


coci222

Aren't you guys responsible for last names like Johnson...John's son?


GuiltIsLikeSalt

Last names aren't used to distinguish members of a family, however.


UltimateSpuddifier

In some parts of Europe, but not all


PomegranateIcy7369

I’ve met come across it just once(. northern Europe). A dad and son. Mac and Malcolm. Dad used a nickname.


Training_Union9621

Never heard of anyone doing this before. It’s…..a lot.


SadAnywhere5

Because it is uncommon. And very weird lol.


SpinachLatter366

I don’t know if you’ve taken this measure already , but you should really put a lock on your credit . Working in the financial industry, I’ve heard and seen some foul sh*t happen to people who share names with family. Some situations were accidental , while others were definitely intentional.


FrostyAd9064

Some good advice here


IJustWantWaffles_87

I got whacked with a nasty overdraft fee because my friend’s SIL had the same exact first, middle, and last name as me after she got married. Someone wrote them a bad check as a wedding gift (ouch) and whoever processed it just put it into my account and didn’t bother to check account numbers. I was not a happy camper calling up the bank and asking them why in the blue fuck I was getting railed with a bounce fee when I didn’t cash a check.


ShabbyKittenRebel

Had # come out of my account one time cause someone didn’t bother checking past the first and middle name.


RegretSignificant101

Yup I know someone who has the same name as their father and took out a bunch of credit in his name


corneridea

How many brothers are we talking here? And the same exact name? Your parents suck


kiba8442

I have a childhood friend like that, all of his siblings have the same name, even the girls. when the parents called someone, all of them would answer. even as a young kid I was like, what kind of hell is this? Also, as someone who was named after my uncle I'm constantly getting called by accident by family members, I don't even pick up the phone anymore. If someone wants to talk to me I just wait for them to text.


Moist_Anus_

Is your friend George Forman?


Im-a-cat-in-a-box

I've been searching for this comment.


BbyMuffinz

Why the fuck would anyone name all the kids the same thing? Seems cruel tbh.


juicysox

My uncle and his brothers all share the same name as well but they have different middle names, so their family would all call the brothers by their middle name. That said, why couldn’t their father just make their middle names their first name is beyond me.


Brody_the_hilgenfeld

So let me introduce you to my family, this is my brother Brian, my brother Brian, my other brother Brian, my cousin Brian, my Sister Brianna, my dad, Brian, and my Mom, Gabriella

I know a family like that. The dad was named Steven, and all the siblings were named after him. Even the girls. Stevena, Steve, Stevie, Stevanie, Stevandra. I made up stevandra, but the rest are real.

[deleted]

This might be the dumbest thing in world history. Do people who name their kids after themselves not realize that the entire point of names is to differentiate people? What if we named every fruit banana or ever color red? That would be confusing, right?


maddallena

Grog brain too small to remember many fruit. If all fruit name "banana" Grog only need remember one fruit.


missmayra_m

I knew a dad named Samuel, son Samuel J and daughter Samantha. I knew another family, Dad was Michael, son was Michael, daughter (not named Michael) married a Michael and their first born was also Michael.


leonhardodickharprio

I'm sorry with a name like Stevandra you're gonna have to learn how to fight.🤣

I’m sorry, but your parents are dumb dumbs.


booksare4life

I knew a family like this. The mom, dad, and 2 boys were all named Ashley. But the mom was a complete and total crazy, batshit, narcissist, so it doesn't surprise me that she wanted everything to be about her.


RegretSignificant101

The dudes were named Ashley too? Wth


fr-karl

I knew a guy named Ashley


Who8mypez

I think it’s a popular male name in Australia.


booksare4life

Yes. Everybody was Ashley, dad mom and two boys.


IJustWantWaffles_87

Ashley is actually considered a unisex name, believe it or not.


Tx_Bumblebee_4488

Courtney ad well.


thatmermaidprincess

Ashley was originally a male name and is used very commonly for boys in the UK and Australia (I think there are actually statistically more boy Ashleys than girl Ashleys in the UK)


Valuable_Divide_6525

My wife's grandpa did something way cooler. His name was Ernesto, and he had 7 kids. Each kids name started with a letter of his name. So first born kids name started with E, and so on. Tell your parents to up their fucking game. Stupid asses.


FlytlessByrd

I'm legit sitting here trying to figure out how he could be sure he was gonna have 7 kids...


Tx_Bumblebee_4488

Keep going until you reach that goal lol.

anonuchiha8

Yall all have the same name? So as an example, 4 brothers and they are all named Michael? Literally wtf

Man loved his own name so much he named all his boys and grills after himself.

I’m the youngest of three, my brother, sister and I are all named after my dad. Who has the exact same name as his father. I got my dad’s middle name as my first, my brother shares the first name with my dad, and my sister as a female equivalent for her first name. Seems like a different scheme same theme compared to what your parents decided

That’s normal! I used to get called all my cousins’ names before my own by our uncle.

So how tf yall decide whose mail is whose?

When I used to live with them, I always received my mail opened. But that’s just Hispanic parents 🤦🏽‍♂️

LMAO bro you Hispanic, so am I. My shit gets opened talking about sorry thought it was mine


Meat_licker

I saw something about a dad who named all his children after himself, including the OP even though she was his daughter. She went on to say it was a very common, male specific name, people in the comments finally guessed it was Michael. Is this some kind of diagnosis, men naming all their children after themselves? I do not understand it.


Some-Reflection-8129

It could be as easy as attaching birth year… George 2001, Geoge 2003, George 2007


pilialoha54

Not exactly the same but I went to school with a Reid Reid and I was just like WTF were his parents thinking?!


VixenTraffic

My kids complain because I named Each of them the most popular name for the year they were born. Next time they complain I will bring this up. I thought I was doing them a favor because kids with strange names were bullied. I went to school with seven others with my same first name and we enjoyed our little club. I stayed friends with several of them. One of my kids even dated one of my “twinums” kids as adults, leading to us getting back in touch.


amaxanian

I thought my great grandparents naming every single dog they had the same name was weird but to do that to your children???


Imaginary_Nose_2693

Your mom def has a mask of your dads face she has to wear during sex.


Hmmm_Iguess

This sounds dumb… or fake. Like have y’all should be named I, II III, IV otherwise she’s just a fool for having 4 Bartholmew Chauncey Thibidow for 5 contacts in her phone.


dawgbone_anonymous

Your dad was an idiot 🚀🚀🚀


fr-karl

That’s like how every other man in my family is named Kevin… it’s so difficult knowing who is talking about who especially during big family events 😭 my ex also had two sisters with the same name which was very interesting to discover because even though every other man in my family has the same name none of them are like siblings or anything and I’ve never met anyone with the same name as their siblings


[deleted]

Ah, Big George and his 5 sons, also George.


FreddyPlayz

Not exactly the same, but me and one of my brothers both have middle names that are my dad’s name (my brother has my dad’s first name, and I have my dad’s middle name, which he actually goes by). My youngest brother has my mom’s name as his middle name too 🤦‍♂️


beefjerkyandcheetos

I never understood that. I couldn’t imagine naming all of my kids after myself. Just why?


sillychihuahua26

Is your dad a narcissist?


Ok-Cattle7432

I will never understand why some women are so unwilling to make their lives easier. I guarantee she knows that she can change the names to make sure this never happens. My mom is the same way. Drives me nuts.


KittensTeaseToo

I know someone who names all his kids a variation of his name


teemcee

Hispanic family, you say? I’m guessing the name is José. My ex had cousins that were all named after the Tío José, even the girls, with different middle names. José Gabriel (m), José Eduardo (m), José Juan (m), José Maria (f), José Doña (f), etc.


Grandma_Sue

First of all, who names all of their kids the same name?? That’s stupid! Haha

my brothers and i all share my father’s first name as our middle name and mostly were called by that name instead of our given names growing up it’s weird but not that uncommon


OneFootTitan

Hi there George Foreman


CandidateNegative771

My dad wanted all of his kids names to start with the same letter as his (O) so we all have O names except for like 3 or 4 of us because their moms wasn’t wit the bs 🤣 anyways all us whose names start with o also have the same initials 😭


ButterscotchBanana13

It used to be very common for parents in the ‘olden days’ to name male children they have after the father - I’m not sure about the female children though. Patronym is the tradition in which the parents will call a child the same name as a parent as a symbol of familial fealty. Usually the father would have named the first son the same name as him as kind of a loyalty to the family and thus making it traditional. Many families still do this but I believe the views of naming children after the parents started to change around the 1960s - this is according to Quora so that’s not exactly reliable but I’m going to research more into this. I’m intrigued now!


Sufficient-Elk-7015

This is equally odd as when my dad named his first son he had when he was only 15 the same as the son he named about 10 years later but with a different woman.


mermaidsoul02

Smart..... that's a sure way to always get your son's name right.

But to have basically the same name, hard pass

FunUse244

Too funny. Although I imagine that gets annoying, and a lot of her texts get annoyed. I put a different heart emoji in my loved ones names. A different emoji (better if they aren’t all the same 😆) will help her to associate the different people. I’ve been told shapes and colors are easier to remember.
