Frozen names; yes or no

KiraGuest ·
My partner and I always had two names in mind for our future kids: Anna and Olaf. Our Anna is now 6, and I'm pregnant with our second. It's a boy, so we'd really like him to be Olaf. But then... the Frozen craze hit. With both an Anna and an Olaf. And now we're doubting. Anna and Olaf might become the new Jip and Janneke, or Saskia and Jeroen. What would you do? Just go for Olaf? Or maybe another name... I'd love to hear your thoughts because I'm not sure anymore... Thanks!

    Just do it! Olaf is already so old!

    You're making the connection yourselves... but it's really a very different duo than
    Jip & Janneke
    Or Nicole and Hugo or Bassie and Adriaan
    And so on

    The frozen rage is already a bit on its way out. So in that regard, I think it's okay.
    I just don't think Olaf is a beautiful name; now I picture a snowman when I hear the name. But yeah, tastes differ.

    Ooh, that's a tough one.
    I probably wouldn't do it myself, but I wouldn't be surprised if others do.

    I think everyone's linking to the Frozen sensation, even though it's a bit "out" now ;-) I wouldn't name my child Olaf myself, but tastes differ, just do what feels right.

    Anna and Olav might be associated less than Anna and Olaf.

    If you think this is the most beautiful name for your son and you've always had it in mind...I'd just go for it! Do what feels right for you. There are as many different people as there are different opinions!!
