If DC turns out to be a boy, Thomas is both DH's and my favourite boy's name. However, friends of ours had a stillborn son whose name was Thomas. I think we should have a word with them and be clear we won't use the name if it will distress them; DH thinks I'm being silly. Any thoughts?

I wouldn't use the name if they had used it for their stillborn son.
So sad for them. Have you got any alternatives?
