What Is Your Biggest Problem With Choosing a Baby Name?
Posted: 10-27-07 16:00pm

Hey guys! I'm new here (actually, I'm a new mother to a baby boy Smile

We went through a LOT choosing our baby's name. I was wondering what your biggest problem was choosing a name. How did you solve it?

For me, it was that my husband and I could not agree on anything! We went through dozens and dozens of names until we finally settled.

This looks like a fun place to be !

Our biggest problem is that my husband literally does not like ANY of the names other than Jamison and even that one he says he is indifferent to.

Our biggest problem was his refusal to choose a name that he dated. And my boy was a bit of a manwhore before we got together - so almost all of my favorite names were a no! Sierra, Adrianna, Danica, all nos! We finally settled on Jayden (which was my first choice, but at the time he said it was a "hippy name", then 4 months later he's all How about Jayden? Like it was his idea XD)

ours was the agreeing part lol

i hated his and he hated mine

eventually the name kristen taylor just popped up and we both loved it!

if he would have stopped being so darn stubborn we would have picked avery for a girls name. i love that name

but he wouldnt budge on it

it was the agreeing on the name that was the hardest. bobby refused to name the baby after any of his ex's or people he slightly disliked so we were limited lol but we finally chose either elizabeth or william

We didn't really have too much trouble picking names. We decided on Ryan and Laura long before I got pregnant. But when it's time for baby number 2 we're gonna have a problem. He likes really traditional and sometimes borings names. I don't like really out there names but I like the name Taryn and Shianna for girls and he just HATES them. So naming baby number to is gonna be a pain!

We had our kids names picked out before I was even pregnant but the hardest thing was the fact that I like/love heaps of names especially for girls and my partner only likes a few. I like all sorts of names (unusual, trendy, commen etc) and he only likes normal names (though he DID agree to the name Skye but I think thats about as unusual as he'll get).

I have picked names for our next children if/when that happens but no doubt partner will have his say too which I guess is fair enough but if it were all up to me that'd be great.

Our problem was that most of the names we got advice on were what we thought were just all to common and trendy. We both wanted something somewhat unique, and because its a girl we are expecting we wanted the name to sound pretty and elegant. I'm now 36 weeks along and expecting my first and we decided to name her Victoria Ashley Renee Smile I picked out Victoria and hubby picked out Ashley which is common but diddnt bother me for a middle name. Her 2nd middle name is my middle name and my mothers as well. I don't like it lol but my hubby loves it so we compermized!
