"But it is surprising that two of the women (who happen to be best friends) gave their babies very similar names. Mikayla Matthews welcomed her fourth child, Lottie June, on July 17, and Mayci Neeley introduced her third child, Charli May, via Instagram on July 26. Notice any similarities? If not, we'll help connect the dots: Lottie and Charli are both nicknames for Charlotte, and their middle names are both spring months."
"The new moms addressed the topic on TikTok. The video, which has almost 4 million views, shows Matthews and Neeley fake crying in a car with text that reads: "You can't both name your baby Charlotte." Then it flashes to the women standing outside the car with their newborn daughters in their arms, looking like they had the last laugh. The reel suggests that the friends both wanted to use the same baby name and found a creative way to do so."
Mikayla Matthews and Mayci Neeley each gave birth in July, naming their daughters Lottie June and Charli May, respectively. Lottie and Charli serve as nicknames for Charlotte, and both middle names are spring months. The new mothers posted a TikTok showing mock tears and then proudly presenting their newborns, suggesting a playful resolution after both favored the same name. Baby name consultant Colleen Slagen notes that name clashes among friends or relatives are common and recounts that she and her cousin both liked the name Maeve while pregnant. In some cases families avoid using the shared name or choose alternative favorites.
