Wait until he or she is born, then announce it as THEIR name. Very few people will criticize the moniker of a child already wearing it. :)
Reply:i like irish mommy's answer best, and hope she wins!


but i think you should just say its MY baby and i LIKE the name, i dont care what YOU think of the name, if you don't like it that much stay the EFF out of our lives.





seriously, why should some one care that much about a childs name that isnt even theirs????


i just dont get it?
Reply:My kids have normal classic names. Nothing strange, trendy or unique where I really wanted advice. But people still have something to say....no matter what. My sister in law had something to say each time and it was soooo annoying. My second child was named after her dad, so we got a break after we found out he was not a girl. My advice, don't discuss it. Do not tell them the name until after the baby is born. If they keep asking, just make up stuff or tell them you haven't decided or can't think of anything, ask for help. When they offer suggestions, tell them how much you hate their suggestions for a change. That's what I did by the time I was expecting my 3rd. When we found out he was a boy, I played stupid with names. I even put a smoke screen up with a fake name. My sister in law was suggesting names, and I had so much fun telling her how much I hated her choices. When she insisted on a name she was going to name one of her kids--I said, then you should have name him that, or get a dog. At one point, closer to the end, we did give her the short list, and she made fun of his first name, how common it is...etc. She should talk, her kids all have names in the top 5-6. We kept the middle name a secret because he's named after my husband's friend, who she hated. Of course, she commented on that. But it didn't matter, it was what we wanted, didn't have to spend my whole pregnancy of her saying how much of a mistake it was, and my son was named. Most normal people will just accept the name at that point. My sister in law is not normal.
Reply:Best way it to be open and honest about it. You don't have to tell the child's name until the child is here. But if you do, just tell them sorry but this is my child and my choice.
Reply:It depends on why they oppose the name. If it's because you've selected some trashy moniker like Veronica Scarlett, you should listen to them.


Otherwise, consider why they prefer the name they're pushing %26amp; deal with it by the facts which I don't know.
Reply:Tell them you havent decided yet until you actually name the baby. When they come with remarks say its your baby and youlike the name so you'd appraciate no negativity
Reply:With my last baby I did not tell anyone her name until after she was born. There was no chance for them to say anything negative.
Reply:Just come right out and tell them your chosen baby name.


Explain that you love them all however, this is your baby and you wish to give him/her a name that you have chosen. Stand firm!





If negative remarks are made, ask them how they would feel if they were in your shoes and someone else was telling them what they should name their babies.





Good Luck to you and your baby.
