So, my parents really upset me yesterday. They hate the girl name we picked out, saying she will be teased and we are "saddling" her with a name she will hate...ugh.
My sister refused to tell the name she choose to keep it a secret because she did not want any opinions... once the baby was born we found out the name!
If I have another I'm not gonna tell anyone the name until the baby is born to many people think they get a say
@mrsfreckles85 I got a lot of grief from strangers. Her name is Harper and they are just like.. That's interesting. And it's just a regular name. We were going to name her Roxanne cos the police are my jam, but Harper Jo Anna just flowed. Regardless, when you see your baby, you will know. Whether it be the name you picked out or a name that comes to mind when you see baby. It's your baby. And it's a great gift to be able to spend hours finding a name for this little being you're making. It's your right, people should respect it. Whether it plain Jane or exotic. It's your right.
I agree @kydensmommy! It just crushed my happy day yesterday. Like, why couldn't they just be happy for us?
The only people that have to like the name is you and your SO don't change the name for someone else and end up feeling like you named your baby the wrong thing.
Really they got to name their kids whatever they wanted and now it's your turn
Thanks @halibug! I was like "well, you don't have to deal with it!" Ugh.
I got that too with my son. I was told by my mom and in laws that he was gong to be teased with a name like Atlas. The rest of the world thinks that a pretty cool name. I say just keep it
Share your son's names ?
So im due in 8ish weeks with a little boy but we cant find a name that we both love so please ladies comment your boys' names ! I need some inspiration ??
Anyone that like boys names for girls I wanna hear your feedback. My husband and I have a name picked out for our second daughter. If celebrities can do it then why can't we? In my opinion this name is better than James, Wyatt or Lincoln. I know I can't screen out the 'I hate that name, think of how much she will be bullied' comments but wish I could. We already have a Kamden and my husband really likes Kooper. For the longest time he wanted Kamden to be Jimi but we stayed with the K names since...
I hate my generation sometimes ?
Today was my nieces baby shower, which went great. She got so much which amazing since she's been working 2 jobs trying to save up for the unpaid leave she'll have to take from work. Anyways I was talking to one of the ladies there since my son and her daughter were playing together. I asked her what her daughters name was, she said it was Layla. I told her that's a really pretty name and asked her if she was a Clapton fan and if she was named after the song. Th...
What is your first name?
We all know our baby's name but what is your first name? I want to know you ladies a little better ?
My MIL is so rude, honestly I used to let her hurt my feelings but now I just feel bad for her. We told her the name we picked for our baby girl, Genevieve, and she expressed how much she hates it. She said that it was "the stupidest fucking name" she's ever heard. I just kinda paused and was like.....ok, lol. It must suck being so negative all the time, I would hate to be like that.
At the end of the day it's your baby
