I'm 39 weeks and we still can't decide what to do. My partner and I both really like the name Michael. Problem 1: it's my brother's name.
Problem 2: I'm from a family of 2 brothers. One of my brothers passed away years ago. It was suggested that we name our son after my deceased brother but we don't like the name.
We decided to stay away from family names to avoid any issues we may raise by not naming him after his departed uncle. But last night we talked about it again, and we both really want to name our son Michael.
