So, she's not my 'D'M, but that's MN shorthand for you! She was abusive and we are low contact.
Her dad was abusive to her and she always hated him.
I've changed the name. But let's say his name was Bertrand and he went by Bert all his life. I have fallen in love with a baby name - Albert, and want to use the nickname Bertie.
So the BC would be different but in day to day my baby would be called something very similar to her hated dad.
AIBU to consider using it? I've really fallen in love with the name and nickname. I only met him a few times then he died so my GF meant nothing to me. And I don't really care about upsetting DM, but I wonder if it's such a low blow I shouldn't do it anyway. Help!
