second-time-mummy`s poll Show results | Hide results


Name-poll poll My first child had his name chosen entirely by his father, first name and middle name. This time we are arguing because if we have a girl i want her to have my middle name but he and his family think it should have his mother and sisters middle name. He says i am only chosing differently because out of spite, which is not true. what should i do?

Give in, it's only a middle name!
Stick to your guns, he chose the last one!

Both of our mothers are constantly trying to giving us suggestions, which would be fine, but we have already picked a name. We decided on our daughters name, together, when I was 4 or 5 months pregnant. I am now almost 34 weeks and we are still getting suggestions. I ignore them and say, `we have already come up with a name, but thanks`. Use your middle name, the only time he needs to touch the birth certificate is to sign his own name, you fill out the rest of it, do what you want!!

Is your name wierd? Sounds like they are taking over a little. My hubby and I have to agree on our kids names. It took forever but I usually get my way:) This time he gets to pick but I have to agree. Don`t let inlaws have any say though! Unless you agree with them. For heavens sakes, why won`t he let his own WIFE use her name as a middle name? Sorry, kind of irritating.

Tell him that when he pushes that baby out, then he can say something... He got to name the first one! My boyfriend luckily is cool and liked the name I picked out, because I was NOT changing it!!! :)

Well my hubbs picked out our son`s name and we both happen to like it but next time I am picking out the name ESPCIALLY IF ITS A GIRL! you have to carry her, give birth to her, and take care of her for the rest of her life! And your husband should really give in to the fact that it is your turn! Fair is fair and he isn`t at all! I would be pissed if my in laws were telling me that I have to name MY CHILD after them! what the heck is wrong with these people?

Can you give her two middle names? This may be my compromise for my child. I do agree that you have to watch out for in-laws that overstep their boundaries. And I`d watch out for a husband that shows his allegiance to his mommy and not his wife -- I used to have one of those! Good luck!

i did let him help with the first name though- but i made sure it was something we BOTH liked

sarah82 (266.6 days ago)
Stick to your guns and do not give in or they will always walk all over you- I mean what the hell is that!! What about your family?? How do they feel! Bahh- I hate men sometimes- lol I chose my daughters name completely and am even giving her my last name. He wanted to give our daughter a persian name for his family after his sister and mom- but i figure- I am carrying her- it is my daughter and she will have a name that me and my mom like. He can choose our sons name for all I care- but daughter is mine

Perhaps he can name the third one, onl if HE CARRIES IT for nine months! Stick to your guns...I hate medling inlaws!

thats ridiculous! if you already decided that he picked first baby and you pick 2nd baby, then you choose what you want. and even if you didnt decide that, his family has no right getting into the middle of it. it should be you and the fathers decision. why should your baby have his mother and sisters name? thats not fair if thats not what you want. stick to your guns and name her what you want!
