I've obviously name changed for this.

DD has a name that I used to love. I ummed and ahhed about using it for ages, there wasn't a name I loved more, but when I finally thought I'd just go for it, I had lots of negative comments about it, etc.

It's a hyphenated name, but it kind of sounds like one name...

There's a whole different name that I have fallen in love with - it's very 'normal' so I don't think I'd regret it.

In my opinion. I must stress opinion not fact!!!!!!
. You've made your bed. You'll have to lie it. She's nearly 1 year old. She'll know her name. You can't change it now

I'd change it. May just have swallow a bit of pride and prepare yourself for the "told you so" comments. But if you don't like the name after a year then I'd be worried I'd always regret it.

If you're still not happy with it after a year I'd change it.
