We are expecting DC1 and have pretty much chosen our names. There is really only one boys name we can agree on and although there are maybe 2 or 3 girls names we 'like' we have our heart set on one in particular.
Now. I know 5 people in our friendship group due to give birth before me and it is actually stressing me out worrying that one of them will use our name! (I know it's a stupid thing to worry about but I am!)
4 of the friends are the wives of DH's friends who he went to school with and is still really close to, I'm friendly with the girls but I don't meet up with them outside of group occasions (weddings/birthdays) where all the husbands are there too. We don't live really near (hence why I don't socialise with them) but I have known them for nearly 10 years (DH for nearly 30!)
Other friend is my cousin (don't live near but pretty close relationship).
So my question is.....if any of the above used THE name you had your heart set on would it stop you using it??
