HelpRe: Do you feel bad when someone “steals” one of your faves?
in reply to a message by number1212
No, I don't think so.
I figure if you'd really wanted a pet named Harper, you'd already have one. And then you could maybe have a laugh about your cousin using your dog's name for her kid.
But really, I don't see anything to feel bad over. Harper was a guilty pleasure anyway, which implies you'd never actually name a child that even if you had a child. And it's so popular right now anyway ...
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
