Congrats!! I like the name. Unique names are great and poeple can say whatever they want to about the name "Bear" and that he will be picked on. Kids will pick on others with traditional names as well or for whateve else they may want to...for lack of a better explaination on my part. Heck, years and years ago kids picked on my Mom (in the late 1930s and early 1940s) for her middle name because it was the same name as the elephant at the zoo. So I guess what I am saying, nothing seems safe with children and how they pick on others. So to make a long story short...Conrgats once again!!! I am so happy for you and thanks for sharing.
