When I was in my late teens / early twenties, I was in a very intense relationship with a bloke who I just assumed I'd spend my life with. We talked about the future and children etc, and I mentioned a girl's name I really liked. We agreed that, if/when we had a daughter, it would be named this name.
As happens, we broke up. It was fairly amicable and we maintained our friendship for a few years, although this has tailed off now he has a long term girlfriend (I suspect he told her too much and has been asked not to contact me- it's his style to over share).
Anyway, I've been with my DP for 5 years and we are due to have a baby any day. In fact, it was due yesterday but who's counting, heh? is there a stressed emoticon? We have agreed upon a few names if the baby is a boy, but we're still struggling with a girl's name.
Would I be totally UR to name it the name I liked all those years ago? Would I be UR to not get permission from exP before I used the name? If I went with the name, would IBU to tell/ not tell DP about the name's history?
I really like the name!
