I don't remember how it came up, but last week I was talking to my boyfriend's mom and she mentioned the name Oliver. Ever since then I have been in love with it! Just in love. I mentioned it to Wes a few days ago and his first reaction was "You aren't pregnant again are you?" and when I told him no he said "Good. Then no. Ew. I hate it." I asked why and he didn't know. However, I can usually talk him into liking a name. Not that I am planning on any more children anytime soon.

What do you all think of it? And what about middle names for it?

We had a deal. My fiance got to pick the name of our baby if it was a boy, and I got to name it if it was a girl. Since we had a boy, my fiance wanted to name our son, Oliver. I protested. Hardcore. I think it's a ridiculous name, and wouldn't torture my child with it. But, that's just my .02

He came up with some ridiculous names though... all of which I hated.
-Stewart (ick)
-Oliver (blah)
-Anakin (is he a friggin Jedi, or what?)

I settled on Gabriel, but, I wasn't too keen on it at first either. I told him next time, no matter what, I'm naming our next one.

Iused the "Since we're not married, I get to fill out the birth certificate so if you don't come up with a name I can live with, I'll use the boy name I like," threat. It worked wonders.
