Sorry in advance for length.
Suspect I know the answer to this one, but...
DS2 due in 6 weeks. We have v boring taste in names, so after going through the baby name book, have only a shortlist of five. Two we're not bothered about, so really it's three choices.
Jack - DH's favourite and I love it, but it's only just stopped being Number One after 11 years and I think that's too popular. I have a v popular name myself and I did get bored with being Frazzled Surname or Label all the time, you know?
William - Will/Billy for short. Both like it, and is the name of the lovely guy who rescued me when I got stuck in the snow last week but I don't love it.
Finn - I adore this name. DS2 has been this in my head all along, which I realise was stupid but I really really want to call him this.
DH had said I could name a boy if we had one, but now misremembers and claims he said the opposite.
However being a lovely guy, he says he's not mad on the name, would go for Finley/Finlay (which I don't like as much) or if nec would just go with Finn as it's more important to me and he knows he'll get used to it.
He's ace, but I feel bad about picking a name we both don't love.

Take advantage of DH's good nature or play fair?
