Frustrated!

It's been a while since I've posted on here.. I am 3 or less weeks away from my due date (finally!). My problem is, the father of my baby has not been involved at all with my pregnancy, much like our last two children (doesn't ask how I'm feeling, when/how my doctor appointments are, doesn't mention the pregnancy at all. I've done ALL of the preparing.. including buying everything I need). I had asked him before about his ideas for names, and he always said he didn't have any ideas, or he would make jokes. So I figured it was up to me to pick the name, like it was with our daughter. And I after a lot of thought, I picked out a name. It wasn't exactly easy.. I'm picky about names, and I had a hard time figuring it out. Anyway, the other day, he lets me know that he wants to pick a name, and doesn't like the one I have picked out. With 3 weeks left. After months of him not having an opinion, or even trying to figure it out with me. And I know it's a good thing that he's actually caring about it this time, but.. I really don't think we'll agree on a name before I have the baby. I guess I shouldn't be too worried about it, but it's really stressing me out.. My question is, how much do I work on a different name with him, or should I just say, "no it's going to be this" and he can deal with it? I know he has a right to have an opinion or help me figure out a name, but he hasn't been concerned with the pregnancy before this and, did I mention that I'm DUE IN 3 WEEKS?? isn't it a little too late?? any opionions would be helpful.. THANKS!

No I moved out about 4 months ago. We had no way to pay the bills, let alone get ready for another baby, and he wouldn't work with me about getting a job or moving somewhere he could get a job. Thanks for the reply!

Ewww, I had one of those, but it took me 4 years to get rid of him. Thank god I didn't listen to him or else my first son would be named Draco.

With that in mind, I'd use the name you picked, and tell him when he starts being involved, he can have a say.
