Hi, my brother and SIL have been approved and were 'up for' a little boy. They weren't keen on his name and wanted to change it (he's just a year old). At a meeting with placement SW, their own SW and his SW a fortnight ago this was discussed and OK'd and they were over the moon to receive a congratulation e-mail a day later. Then last week they were called to a meeting with the senior SW and told in no uncertain terms that they could NOT change his name and the match was off! Understandably they are devastated and I can't believe this is really the case. Please can anyone help me understand what the case is with first names?
