Balin he was joking then decided he liked it!

Fortunately we had girls

[bridgetreilly]

OP, I like your husband's boy names!

[123Dancewithme]

I vetoed Emma, Emily, Amy, Rebecca, Mark and Timothy

[Pumpkincandle]

I'm trying to be open minded but when my husband suggest Cole because we're Welsh (and I know it's not even spelt the right way).... I gave up

[Tillygetsit]

My dh liked Morven and Zilla for our dd2. Happily she's called Cassia

[ilovemykids5]

Lillith 🤔

[Starrynights86]

Devon, just not a fan.

[IDontDrinkTea]

My husband liked Macarena for a girl....

[Peridot1]

My husband suggested Beverly for a girl.

[Thegracefuloctopus]

Atlas for a boy

[Sforsh49]

@funkt Karen? You never see a baby called Karen. It is a rank you earn!

[Yeahnahyeah1]

Briony, Erica and Hannah. I hate them all 🤦🏼‍♀️

[ceebeejeebies]

My ex liked Kendrick for a boy... there was absolutely no way it was ever going to happen
My dad wanted to call me Zeus (pronounced zee-us ) or blade, I'm so happy I was born a girl and given a slightly more conventional name.

[Keepyourginup]

Gordon!

[funkt]

@Sforsh49 precisely. A Karen is a specific type of person, and anybody named that will always be that type of person. I felt like I didn't need that type of person embodied as a three year old.

Ramirez.

We are British and Polish. Our surname is long and Polish. He seriously wanted to call ds2 Ramirez. Did not understand my refusal to consider it.

[SpringFan]

Not a name hate, but my DH suggested that Cameron or Alaister were too Scottish sounding and then suggested Andrew! Could not worked out why I laughed.
(NB. His dad was from Northumberland and he has a Scots surname)

[ChilliMayo]

Carl.
I really took against it. I've only ever met one Carl, and whilst I felt no rapport there was nothing about him that creeped me out. But when dh suggested this (in 1993) I was just Ain't Happening.

[Naomimi]

Persephone
Dorothea
Ariadne
Arabella
Cassiopeia
Amandine

All lovely but way too much with our long surname!

[Magicmama92]

My partner suggest bo for our little girl.
No thanks.

I dont really like names like north apple etc I'm more of a normal or old fashioned name person haha. For me its finding names that dont remind you of people you dont like as well if you bullied by a james it does put you off that name.

[ChrisPrattsFace]

DH really loved Wayne. Actually hate the name, my accent and they way it comes out is just horrific!

[OhMsBeliever]

My now ex insisted that if we ever had a girl she'd be called Jocelyn.

No. And no again.

I told him in my mind it was a posh mans name not a cute baby girls name but he wouldn't have it. (Sorry to anyone with a girl Jocelyn)

Luckily we had boys so I never faced having to outright refuse it.

[LikeTheFruit]

DH likes Giles/Gyles and doesn't think it's in the least bit posh!

[Ahundredpercentthatbitch]

Maverick.

He was serious.
