I am not in love with my daughter's name either. It just doesn't flow well and I don't like that it's 2 people's names shoved together. Her name is Ellalee Makenna. I only agreed to name her Ellalee if I got to call her Ellie because I dislike Ellalee. If it had it my way her name would be some form of Jade Makenna, Ellie Jade, or Jade Ella but my fiancée says no. He refuses to budge on her name. Sigh : /

My fiancée name is Dominic BTW he's the only dominic around here and I hardly ever hear the name. So that's a plus!

I was completely against my son's name Michael clear up till birth and for awhile after! But it grew on me and his dads name is michael, and they are twins! So he looks like a Michael and the name suits him so I feel in love with the name

My friend named her son John Grayson, and I love it. I think it flows so well.

I know a mom whose baby is now 10 and she hates her name, she wishes she would have picked something else. Other times names grow on you though. But if you don't love it I'd look into other names, my sister had a name picked out and called him by it until she was 8 months pregnant then decided to change it. If your looking for D names, my sons name is Dashel, we call him Dash, it's one you don't see on most baby lists we actually heard it from the Disney movie The Incredibles but we changed the spelling. Good luck!

He should be considering your feelings too though. There are ways to compromise where both of you get what you want. You can find a name you both love instead of having to settle. I don't see it as selfishness that you might want another name. Maybe look at d names that you like and talk to your SO.

I know how u feel, we couldn't find a name we both felt crazy about so we are naming him after my husband. But I can't help but wonder if it's a mistake and if i should keep looking for one I love.

BTW I think that is a really cute name

His name was originally reversed for about 2 weeks but so said I was not considering his feelings.

My so and his family already think I've been selfish throughout this pregnancy. I just want what's best for my son. I've been calling him Grayson, and telling some that's his name. I guess I will continue doing that to feel better about it. To me he'll be known as Grayson. Everyone else can call him by his first name.

That must not be his name, then. What if you reversed the middle and first names? I love the name Grayson, too.

I would change his name to something you both love. Don't settle with a name you don't like

I think if you don't love it you should start brainstorming other names. You don't want to give him a name that you won't like calling him or hearing others call him. There's still time to think about it.

I agree with calling him by his middle name. We call Jace Kal very often (his middle name is Kal-El)...I think his Dominic will grow on u especially if when he is born he "looks" like a Dominic lol. But seriously, if u really have a gut feeling that u won't like it then I say change it now ?

i feel the same way with mine sons name.... when i named my first 2 boys i had an instant connection with their names and this one doesn't feel the same. :/ i have a name picked out just incase i wanna change it once he's born and i see him....

I mean u can still always call him by his middle name. We have always called my lol bro by his middle name only ppl from school and work call him by his first.

I'm not much help as I have never had this problem so I don't know how I would feel. But I do love the name.
