Hi all. One year ago my brother chose my favourite name as the middle name for his baby girl. Now I'm pg I really want to use that name for the first name if we have a daughter. If it was my niece's first name I definitely wouldn't use it, but do you think it's ok as it's just her second name? I love the name so much!

My step sister stole my dd's first nameAngry
I don't think I would be to bothered but I would speak to your brother first! Congratulations to you!

No one owns a name.

Having said that, I'd be v annoyed if my brother or sister took my DD's middle name for their child!

Her middle name is part of her.

Of all the names that exist, you're telling me you can't find ONE other name you like???!
