    LOL, the explanation about her name reminded me of when Katie was answering the question of why her belly is so big already.
    "BECAUSE IT IS!"
    love you guys! Always make me laugh

    This vlog is exactly why I adore you two, You don't sugar coat it, you're real, if someone is offended by your beautiful daughters name they can go elsewhere and that's exactly what you said! I love that you guys stay true to yourself and don't bend and sway to try and please others!

    I like you stuck with Macey Gaines' name no matter what everyone said! Because I can't really picture her as anything else, Macey isn't enough for such an adorable little baby doll like MG! My Aunt tried to change my Mom's mind about my sister's name, Calista, and I don't really think its anyones place to critique or comment on the name you as parents pick! Love it!

    I am so sorry that y'all are dealing with crazies who think they have a right to have input on naming your child. That's just nuts! It's such a beautiful name and your name reveal was so precious. Can't wait to see sweet little Gaines! :)

    I'm from the north but go to school in TN and I just loved how almost everyone I met down there had a double name or a unique name - and I love all the monograms, of course! Macey Gaines is so adorable. I love how Gaines sounds like such a strong name and how unique it is, she will go so far in life! I just started following y'all's journey and love it so much. Congratulations!

    I'm really glad that you're not letting it bother you that people are saying negative things about her name. I'm pregnant right now and get hurt pretty easily when people make negative comments about our favorite names. Hearing you guys talk about her name has helped me feel more confident in our decision, so thank you for that. I think the name you chose is super cute and I'm glad she'll have a name that makes her stick out from the crowd.

    @mg11879 9 років тому +3

    Had I watched this video just five years ago I would have been so confused, but living in the south for the last five years this makes total sense. I know so many people here who go by their middle name...or even by a name that isn't even one of their names. Makes total sense to me. Can't wait to hear baby #2's name. :-)

  • @thevictoriagoogin
    @thevictoriagoogin 9 років тому +1

    I looked up this video because I found you guys on "Breaking the Internet" with Daily Dumps & Ellie & Jarod and fell in love with her name, and I was dying to know why yall chose Macey Gaines I love it and think its adorable!! I had no idea yall were going to have to defend your name choice so much. crazy!!! I honestly thought it was for Gainesville but i knew it didnt make sense bc yall are Rolltide fans lol
    love her name & yes the "you shoulda/nt" are never ending no matter how old they get!

    This is exactly why I love watching y'all... you are so down to earth... I think that y'all are dealing with the criticism gracefully (and I would expect nothing less!) while I might not have named my child Gaines, it works for you... I love that the name has strong family ties... I like that it is unique, without being "younique" (you know those names with really off the wall spellings, just to be different)... I really like the idea of calling her Macey Gaines.. as a fellow southerner, I think that double first names are so stinkin' cute. No matter what she is called, this baby is going to be surrounded with love... so keep your head up, and monogram everything that doesn't move!

      @TheMckenna1101 10 років тому

      Oh and my name is McKenna and my middle name I Rylynn. Although I do not get called by my middle name I always had the choice too! And I love my name, but just couldn't pick from McKenna or being called Rylynn. My mom loved my name hoping I would be a country singer because it sounded like a name that would be one. Too bad I'm not a fan of country music but I can sing.

    Gaines is a BEAUTIFUL name for a GIRL... yall know what fits YALLS baby and that's all that matters! No one else is going to have to go through labor to deliver Gaines... so no one else really has the right to an opinion about it.
    YOUR body, YOUR baby, YOUR labor, YOUR decision.

Who are these people who think they're so special to dictate what you do and don't do?... You guys are awesome! It's so sweet how hard Cullen defends his little girl already! Keep that up!

    I don't like the name at all, but it's not my child, so I don't have to. It's your baby, and you get to name her. You are giving her a name that means something to you and your family and you love it. That is all that matters.

  • @momwithsparklyheels
    @momwithsparklyheels 10 років тому +4

    I find it terrible when people say bad things about a name that the parent legitimately loves! I named my daughter Charlotte Ryan, and even my best friend hated it, and you should have heard the things that I have been told about my son's name (I am 17 weeks pregnant) when I revealed the name Henry. I LOVE Macey Gaines, I am also from the South and I completely understand your traditions!

  • @roxyfoxyyoutube
    @roxyfoxyyoutube 10 років тому

    Amen!! Gaines is a wonderful and unique name. I named my oldest son Orion. I still remember when I announced his name at my babyshower and everyone looked at me like I was crazy. People honestly told me that they hated it and didn't like it all. I was crushed but stuck to it...because that was the name that I liked. Now he's almost 12 and nobody could image him as anything else. He's 100% an Orion and people actually tell him all the time they love his name...and most importantly HE loves his name. :o) Gaines is awesome!!

  • @ashleycrumbley2985
    @ashleycrumbley2985 10 років тому +1

    There's always going to be people out there who are negative Nancy's as my mom calls them. No one liked the name Oliver Scott that we picked for our son. But my husband and I literally didn't give a crap. By the time he was born everyone loved it.
    No one had the right to knock a name that a parent chooses especially parents that have been waiting a long time and been on a long journey to meet their miracle blessing. Everyone has different brains and likes and dislikes. You feel connected to the name and how it fits together for YOUR daughter. I personally love it. But I'm from the south and live in the same state and possibly close to your city since we have met once. Macey Gaines is a beautiful unique name that will be somebody some day. Powerful unique name. Love you guys!!

  • @Seanaci
    @Seanaci 10 років тому +1

    1) I knew someone in high school who went by her middle name...well, a shortened version (Casey instead of Cassandra). Now though, I think she goes by a shortened version of her first name (Gabby). Ironically enough, she was born and raised in Texas.
    2) Thank you for giving more info on where Gaines came from. I think it's a touching tribute to family that may not be around any more. I had never heard Gaines before y'all announced her name. It is unique to me at least. (For what it's worth, if we were able to have another child, I would seriously find a way to use both my in-laws names in the childs name. Because they passed away within a couple days of each other, I think it would be a touching tribute and story for when the child was older.)
    3) To all the haters: Hush. Not your baby, not your choice. When y'all have kids of your own, name them the way you want (though I'm sure you'll get some flack for what you choose as well). Really, it all comes down to what they choose to call her and then what she likes to be called when she is old enough to understand and say "no, I want you to call me ." Also, if you can't say anything nice (or at least in a respectful way), don't say anything at all.

  • @natalielawyerchick
    @natalielawyerchick 10 років тому

    Hey guys! When I was in study abroad in college (in the middle ages) I discovered that people in West Africa will often times go by their middle names. Being from NYC, I had no idea that anyone ever would do such a thing. I'm Natalie Elizabeth and people who would see my name written out over there would say "Well, what do you go by, Natalie or Elizabeth?" I remember being so baffled, like, what a ridiculous question. Natalie is in the front, I go by Natalie. Haha, what a culture shock for me, I learned to really see the comedy in the cultural difference and would sometimes tell people, "you pick!" LOL. I like the name you chose because I like it when girls have somewhat masculine names, it's really cute.

  • @AshBoutDatCash
    @AshBoutDatCash 10 років тому

    I am almost 23 weeks and have only shared my baby girl's name with close family. Whenever someone asks if I have a name I say, "Kinda." I just don't want to invite anyone to criticize a name that my husband and I love! I admire you for even addressing "concerns" because the first person to say something negative about my baby's name will get an ear full and it won't be nice!

I'm 25 weeks pregnant and finally decided on naming my son bennett and everyone's like that sounds like a last name, that's horrible, blah blah blah. I know that name and when he gets older he can even go by Ben if he wanted to!! I love the name that y'all picked!!! It's going to fit her perfectly!!!!!

    Love the names. You don't have to justify YOUR babies name to anyone. My nieces and nephews all have unique names, and once you meet them you never forget them because of their unusual names. It's good to be different, we should all celebrate our differences. Loved the vlog today as always, catch you on the flip side....byeeeeee

  • @joycetenhage1740
    @joycetenhage1740 10 років тому

    It totally suits her now! I love it. It's very Dutch also to choose to call the child by a middle name, or to use a name that's completely different than their given names. I have a friend who was named Anna Maria , but they call her Marianna ....

    I do love the flow of Macey Gaines. My dad's last name is Sells and he is a regional sales manager, who uses to be a salesman. Can you imagine the jokes my whole family got? Lol. We lived! But definitely prepare to hear them because no matter how lame and overdone everyone acts like they're the only ones in the world to tell you that joke. I have twins and if I had a $1 for every time we heard double trouble I'd own UA-cam lol! :)

    I'm going to be honest, when I first heard her name I thought it was different. But the more I hear you guys saying it, it really is a beautiful name. When I hear the name Macey, I think of a pretty little girl and when I hear Gaines, it's not an overly girly name, but it holds real meaning to it and for that reason I think it's a beautiful name. It sounds like you guys put a lot of time and thought into her name. She is so lucky to have 2 really nice and cool and fun parents like you guys. I'm so happy for you! Can't wait to meet her!!

    I totally lost it at poop intestine! So dang funny. I'm glad you all addressed the people giving you crap about your baby name. Names are such a personal choice, I don't know why anyone else thinks they get an opinion. What a wonderful way to honor Cullen's great-grandmother. I love the name Gaines. The double name is huge in the south. I was a nanny for a southern family up here in Montana and their daughter went by her first and middle name.

    I think Gaines is really unique and cool!! It's nice to have an affectionate and meaningful name/nickname!! Macey Gaines is adorable 😊

    I love you guys and am already falling for sweet Macey Gaines! Thank you for sharing your lives with us and I adored the name reveal video. Every time you were hinting at a name reveal for the past few weeks I was getting nervous for you! When my husband and I were choosing our baby girl's name I kept getting my feelings hurt by the reactions of others. Finally we selected a name and announced it at birth. People are much more likely to be polite when meeting a sweet baby. I'm proud that you have dealt with this the way you have and with each blog you post I get more and more excited to see your lives continue to grow with your sweet blessing. Gaines, you have amazing parents and I can't wait to see your sweet face!

    With every different name I always have to adjust. I didn't like the name my sister picked out for my nephew at first but now I think it's super cute because of how different it is. I wasn't a fan of Gaines AT FIRST but now I really do like it!
    I'm so glad you guys are happy and that Macey Gaines is doing so well

    I think the name Macey Gaines is lovely! Fits so perfectly with you guys! My nephew was recently born and his parents named him Ryder, there have been so many negative comments towards his name but ultimately I think a persons name becomes them and it's no one else's but the parents decision! Lots of love from the Uk! Xxx

    Katie, I hear you on the common name thing! My name is Emily and it seems like whenever I go in public I hear people saying it all the time which can get really annoying. I love that you guys picked such a unique name and Macey Gaines is lucky to have such great parents!

  • @courtneytrammell1609
    @courtneytrammell1609 10 років тому

    I agree that Macey Gaines flows better than if Gaines was her first name so honestly, I love the name! It wasn't what I was expecting at first, but it has really grown on me! Being from the south myself, I think it's perfect :)

    I hear ya on the common name, Katie. There were always so many Katelin's around. When I have children I totally want an uncommon name! You guys rock! Beautiful name!

    I totally agree with most people not understanding southern names. My son is named Clayton Edwin-Gene Toney. Clayton is my great grandmothers maiden name and his name names are either 'Clayton Edwin-Gene' or 'Edwin- Gene'. I think Macey Gaines has the cutest name ever.

    Just came across this video! My name is Anna Katherine and my parents (especially my mom) wanted me to go by both names. Through my middle school days I decided I liked Anna K better. Now I'm mostly known as Anna Katherine or AK. It's fun having two names and I know Macey Gaines will always enjoy her name no matter what she wants to go by when she is older!!

    I really love how it sounds together! You guys should not have to stress about what others have to say! After all you guys have gone through who cares! you could of have named her "cup" "toy" "princessculligan" And we still would love her the same! You guys are amazing!

  • @krsandberg
    @krsandberg 10 років тому +27

    Wow, surprised at how upset you guys are. Seems like most the vlog was spent telling the people they were ridiculous and to "shove it", and criticizing them, being sarcastic and almost rude about it. I get there are haters and trolls but disappointing to see that much time and attitude spent on the small percentage of negative comments. Usually such an upbeat vlog, I guess it just hit a nerve (which I can sorta understand). Just don't give the negativity attention!

      @krsandberg 10 років тому +6

      I get it. I wouldn't like those comments made about my name choices. I was just going back and reading the comments from the name reveal expecting to see some hateful things, and while there were a few outright rude ones...I think most were honest (and yes, unsolicited) reactions to an unusual name. Most of us have been made fun of as a kid as as a sore spot, a first thought when it comes to names. I was just surprised to hear some of the things you said (like how they don't have to watch your channel and how you don't really care what they think) and see how sarcastic and negative you guys were in return (saying some people in the comments had weird names). I dunno, was just surprised and put off. That said, you guys are great. Macey GAINES is a lucky girl. :)

      personally i dont think they should have to answer any questions! its THEIR baby girl and like they said they could've just called her by a nickname!!! THANK YOU bamachick1101 FOR BEING GENUINE!!!!!

    • @georgeneleight4123
      @georgeneleight4123 10 років тому +1

      +Autumn Solt, I totally agree! I was actually surprised when I read all the comments and I did find many of them out of line. People beg for details and a name reveal and they are nice enough to open their lives to use and then everyone feels they have the right to tell them they don't like the name or they should call her something else. This is THEIR child and the name obviously means a lot to them. The beauty is when each of those subscribers has a child they can name it whatever THEY want. If they really don't like it then just don't comment. Why hurt their feelings? They obviously aren't going to change it because some viewers are rude.

    I have to admit, I was a little surprised about the "unusual" name choice (I'd never heard the name Gaines before) but the more ya'll say it, the more I love it...I especially like it with both names together and I like Gainesy. So cute!

    I have always loved double names I had no idea it was a southern thing to do. I have always thought a name should have meaning, and I love that you guys have been so passionate about naming your daughter. Best wishes :-) Macey Gaines sounds lovely!

    I absolutely love your name choice! With my name being Sarah Beth I totally agree with Katie that some names are just overused. Don't let people bring you down! Can't wait to see Gaines! Also I'm from Georgia which means I know a MULTITUDE of people named from family names or called by their middle name. Love you both and happy target balling!

    Thanks for explaining the middle name thing. I'm from colorado, the west, and it's different to me. But I think Macey Gaines is adorable.

    I ❤️ that you addressed all the haters!!! It makes me sad to see that your "fans" and followers have been so mean and critical! I guess par for the course, but you can tell it hurts!!! I thought you guys addressed this so flawlessly! I think the name absolutely fits you and it was so cute to see Cullen's face light up when he looked back at her pictures!!!

    I've grown to really love masculine names and last names as given names for girls :) My favourite for a girl right now is Donovan. I've grown to really love the name Gaines as well, especially after seeing her, she totally looks like a Gaines. Ya'll do what you want! You put a lot of thought into it and it's important to you. I hope ya'll aren't getting any crap about her name anymore.

  • @abbyrobert00

    oh and i like Cullen too!! is that your middle or first name? we almost named one of girlies Katie and have it be just Katie :) but fell in love with Olivia Mae and call her Livie Mae :)

  • @jackiepiano24
    @jackiepiano24 10 років тому

    I don't understand why people are so offended by the baby's name. I think it's beautiful and very original. Being original is great because your name is what make you different. I personally love her name

  • @EGKing2009
    @EGKing2009 10 років тому

  • @JKcubed3
    @JKcubed3 10 років тому

    I love the name that you chose. It's your baby and your choice. We named our son Jett and there were many people that had their not so nice opinions. We told them that we loved it and that it was our baby so we stayed strong. Jett has won people over with his name and they now like it because they couldn't imagine him being named anything other then Jett.

  • @michellededels3840
    @michellededels3840 10 років тому

    Just watched your video and all I could think the whole time to tell people is that yes you can call your child whatever when names are chosen we choose GIVEN names and a last name. So if you think given names instead of first, second, third or middle names that explains exactly what you guys are doing by calling her Gaines it is one of her given names. My children each have 3 given names Amy Erin Nicole and Duncan Michael Ford and if thy choose to be called something different than what I have chosen then I will call them by that. So all the power to you guys for taking a stance on your naming choices.

  • @TheDailyKVlogs

    I think you guys picked two beautiful names! It's so hard to pick a name for your child...I remember being so nervous about naming my son! But in the end of the day, like you said, people will always find something to say about anyone's name. My name is insane to pronounce and I am always so excited to meet someone with a crazy cool name because I already have something to talk to them about. I don't know...maybe I'm weird. Anyway, you did a great job naming your little girl and it's interesting how the more you get to know about your child, the more their names start to fit them. Love you guys!
