deciding on a name

[lewood88]

Me and OH have agreed that he will name our son as I named our daughters, well its been a tricky one OH has been so funny about names he's drove me a bit mental tbh.

But he said he 90% certain on corey but he said he may change his mind again when our baby is here

Its been so hard naming a boy compared to naming girls

Anyone else struggled?

We went back and fourth on names, choosing one then changing it Its difficult, but once you have the right one it will just feel different to the others xx hope you decide soon xx

We are also struggling. We didnt name our DD until the day after she was born.

We have always had a boys name set in stone, but this bubs is also a girl lol, so struggling even more !

I do like the name Corey though ! X

We also struggled to find a boy name, even though naming our little girl was a piece of cake. I think I was 37 or 38 weeks before we settled on his name ( middle name we knew the whole time as its his dads) but the first name we bounced around, searched and debated.
In the end I love his name though

We flip flopped a lot on a girl's name, but had a boy picked immediately. Once we knew the gender (girl), we flip flopped a little bit more and finally settled a couple weeks after the 20 week scan.

We didn't get a clear shot of gender at 20 weeks, so we started looking for boy and girl names, just in case - even though we were told "probably a girl". We had a girl's first name picked within days of the scan, and then picked a boys name a little while later. Finally had the gender confirmed at 30 weeks (girl!) ... and now I'm being induced on Monday and we're 110% unsettled on middle names. He vehemently HATES everything I've suggested, and he wants to give her the same middle name that our older son has. I'm getting upset.

Naming our first son was cake. We had a middle named for boy #2 long before I even got pregnant, but his first name took a while to narrow down - I think until like 32 weeks? But being 2 days away from induction now without even an inkling for this baby's middle name is really upsetting me. He's not giving any input, which is what upsets me. He just wants to veto everything and insult me by saying they're horrible ideas.

We found it really easy choosing a name but that might be because it's our first baby.
As soon as we found out we are having a boy my sister in law asked what we are calling him and without discussion my OH just said Harrison, we hadn't really discussed it but it just seemed right to both of us, especially as it's OH's nana's maiden name.
If we were having a girl we would have gone for either Kathleen (my mums name) or Elowyn.

We are still undecided on a name. I think she won't have one till after she's born at this rate!

None of mine had names until they were born. DS was easy, we named him the day after he was born. DD1 took a week and DD2 took 5 days. Choosing a name for someone is hard!

I had a girls name from day one, this is our second boy and we did struggle!
In the end my choice was Callum, dh was Dexter and we gave deciding vote to our three year lol, Dexter it is! I'm going to be out voted by boys my whole life!
