babynamesWhat do you do if you have had your heart set on a name for YEARS (since before you met your SO) and then your SO tells you that he doesn't like that name combo, and for no particular reason that he can name?
I LOVE the names Madeline Rose, or Mersea Rose (pronounced either Mer-say-ah or Mercy, since it was a made up name from my childhood). My SO, on the other hand, does not like them, and for no discernible reason. He just says that he doesn't like them a whole lot.
He has his heart set on naming a child after himself (so the child's name would be Boy Ryan Lastname) and after his father (Boy Patrick Lastname). Unfortunately I dislike the concept of naming children after your parents or any relatives.
Have you had a situation like that? How did you handle it?
