The next one I go to, I want to cosplay as the EMH from Voyager(going to say: "What is your medical emergency?" everytime I talk to someone), but would that be weird? Also, my gf/fiance wants to dress 7 of 9 and have our baby dress as a little Borg. Do you think the anime people will take kindly to us, or no?

That's more for comic cons and less for anime expo

Oh my god that's adorable.
It would not be weird and even if it was, I doubt anyone there would be a jerk and call you on it.
Also, pics.

True, but I also don't think the vast vast majority would care.

I think it's fine.

The baby isn't born yet. We're just talking about it because she hasn't ever been to a nerd convention of any kind and want me to take her to one. I'll definitely post pics when we end up going as a family later though.

Wouldn't really matter either way, anime cons draw out the wierdest of society, so who would they be to judge?

This. I've even seen Aqua Teen Hunger Force cosplay at an anime convention.

EMH says "Please state the nature of the medical emergency," not "What is your medical emergency." There may be exceptions, but the former phrase is his standard utterance when activated, until they customize his program so that he doesn't have to say that unless he wants to anymore.

To answer the question, though, in my opinion I don't think it would be any issue at all. You might possibly encounter one or two people who will be critical and think only anime should be represented at an anime expo, but they would be the exception. In general I find the majority in these communities to be pretty accepting toward inclusion of anything which tends to have an overlapping fanbase. Do what you think makes sense and have fun.

Oops, I'm on a road trip right now and didn't really think about it much when typing that. >.>

People didn't give me any shit when I dressed as Naked Snake, but that was made by the Japanese so I guess it's more accepted.
