We are expecting a little girl, which will be the first girl in both our extended families.
My husband wants to name our daughter after MIL or MIL's mother, in honour of his mother, who he adores. I understand that, but don't like either of their names at all (they are similar to each other). Husband has said he is willing to compromise, but has rejected everything I have suggested.
MIL is tolerable, but we don't get on brilliantly, and there have been issues in our marriage where I have to put my foot down to avoid being put second to my husband's family.
AIBU? Has anyone been through this already? We have other children, but their naming was so simple!

AIBU to insist on having a veto on my unborn daughter's name?
