This is a really sensitive subject, so obviously I don't mind you saying it is/isn't wrong, but just don't be really spiteful

We had a name picked out, from the day we knew he was a boy.

Would it be wrong to now not use this name, just because he was stillborn? It seems like I don't love him doesn't it?

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

No, not at all. People always have their hearts set on a name and then when their baby comes it doesn't feel right, and they change it. You call your little boy whatever you want, it's no-ones business but yours.

Hugs to you, OP.

No it doesn't seem like that, look on it as choosing an even more perfect name for your little angel.
