So our baby boy is a few weeks old now, and for a few reasons he remains unnamed! It was a stressful pregnancy (emotionally and lots of fighting with partner) and we are now kind of separating so naming our baby has been put off and I'm feeling anxious and indecisive about it. But I'm really looking forward to naming him! The name I thought of while pregnant was Euan and it took some convincing as my DH is Scottish and grew up with a few Euans! For me in Australia it is pretty unusual. When our baby was born I though oh little Euan! But he was still unconvinced. We then went between Euan and Story, Euan and Alec and currently Euan and Innes. Innes my partner loves and I do to but over all this time Euan has kind of stuck. His 2 year old sister called him Euan constantly! I have gone to calling him 'bubs' sometimes I look at him and I think Euan, or sometimes Innes! I love that Innes is unique and strong and sounds lovely. I'm also worried that Euan sounds like 'you and' has anyone with a Euan found this an issue?? All in all, I think it's hard deciding while so much other stuff is going on but I want to. I like opinions on names, but more importantly advice on being OK with just choosing! Thanks x
