HelpRe: Would a kid be made fun of for this name combination
in reply to a message by Stephanie
Aw, I love Clark! It's one of my Top 5 favorites.
At the elementary level, if 1) his classmates learn his middle name and 2) they make the Clark Kenna/Clark Kent connection, they'll think it's cool. Seriously. :) I don't think older kids would care much, particularly since his name wouldn't actually be "Clark Kent." Name teasing isn't as common as parents fear.
I do care what others think about my combos but only up to a point. If I can brush off someone's negative opinion as just a difference in tastes, it doesn't bother me. On the other hand, if someone dislikes it because it's the name of a famous porn star or grandpa's longtime mistress (that happened to a friend of mine), then I take those feelings seriously.
