It's been awhile since I've posted in here due to us having our names picked out or at least half decided on early on.
Anywho, we still are decided on Lyric Marie for a girl and we had agreed on Matthew Allen for a boy but due to recent events I have changed my mind.Any of u who haven't read any of my posts lately my babys dad and I aren't together but had been making a lot of plans and suddenly a couple weeks ago it just went down hill and because of his actions I have decided if we have a boy to name him after a friend of mine from childhood who passed away a couple years ago.
So if we have a boy his name will be Joshua Allen after my friend, but we will still put the Allen part on there. Allen is the owner of the bar we met at thru friends and are regulars at which to him kinda makes us family.Sooo since it's an important part of how we met we thought it would be nice to use his name for a middle name.

My SO doesn't understand why I would want to name my son after Josh no matter how much any of us try to explain it.Anyone have any ideas?All he says is that I better not think we're naming our son after a dead person as if I'm just picking a name randomly from a tombstone or something.grrr

Enough rambling, sorry.lol
So what does everyone think of the name Joshua David Allen?Honestly, no hard feelings if u tell me u don't like it. :)

your SO needs to chill out! it's not like you're naming your son after a dead LOVER. and there really isn't anything wrong with honoring a friend who has passed on by naming a child after that friend. if he can't understand that you should tell him to stick it where the sun don't shine! :P otherwise...I'm not a particular fan of David as middle name because it's so over used but I like the combination. :)

EXACTLY! We've all told him this.
It's a set in stone deal about the name if we have a son, no ifs, ands or butts about it! I kinda set it aside before when we were talking about names to see what else we could come up with but I kept telling him how important it was to me. I know it's not so much because he's deceased but because it's after a guy...he has no problem if we have a girl for her to have my best gf's middle name.
