I love the name Charlie for a girl, Dolly not so much, but there’s nothing better than give your child a middle name or in this case a double middle name, because i know a lot of people who don’t like their first names and are called by the second or third. I really like the way they sound Rebecca and Tamara. Is lovely that Baby Charliehas been named for Jerry’s brother. Love Them! Good Luck

Silly names, silly parents, silly babies. nothing better than that Love Charlie for a girl and am also planning on using siblings middle names for my kids – but “opposite” — Tyler for my girl and Page for my boy. My only problem with Dolly – not that anyone cares or should – is that it reminds me of the sheep. Congrats to them! May many others be so fortunate!

Congrats to them I’m sure they’re both ecstatic, and I am relieved that the babies came relatively on time. I’m sure, like most, I thought they’d be here early/around Christmas time.

I’m not crazy about the names, but I’m sure they’re adorable babies. I wonder if Charlie is actually just “Charlie” or if it’s short for Charlene..etc.

You think we’ll see some pics?

Congrats to them, I love rebecca. The names are not my taste, way too long and charlie for a girl is just not cute. Dolly is ok, but nonetheless to each is own as far as naming kids are concerned. Not as bad as some other celebrity baby names that are really ugly in my opinion. I hope we see pictures of the babies in the next few months.

I’m surprised by how many people don’t like Dolly and Charlie. I’ve been under the impression that Charlie for a girl has become more common in the last few years, but now I’m thinking that may not be the case. Regardless, I think it’s a beautiful name for a girl and have often considered naming my daughter Charlotte (in honor of a relative) but call her Charlie. And, maybe it’s just because I always think of names ending in ‘-ie’ and ‘y’ as being feminine, but Charlie, to me, doesn’t exactly scream hypermasculine, rather gender-neutral. And Dolly, well, that’s been my nickname since I was born, so I love it. And the fact that the chosen names have such meaning to the couple makes it all the more special.

One question, why do people make such a fuss over non-traditional middle names???? I’m in my 20′s and I’m pretty sure my middle name is more commonly known as E. than Elizabeth. The only time my middle name has ever been more than just an initial was when my mother would get mad at me and call me by my entire name! I’m just wondering if maybe other people use their middle names often and that’s why they have an issue with a name like Mowgli or Tulip? I truly am just curious.

Congrats to both of them. I have twin boys who are just turning 10 months and it is the best thing ever, and they are actually great because we set them up on a routine. I like the names, a little long, but they have special meanings to them which is nice.
