Agree
If I were not a name-nerd and were considering a name for my child I would want to look up its meaning, history, origin, etc. I get the feeling that most people don't actually do that. Although it isn't necessarily their fault-- I've seen so much incorrect information in baby name books these days.I probably would have said something matter-of-factually too, but yes, try to say it without accusing them of being dumb. I don't know how good of a job I can do on that. :/
