My DM always wanted to call my brother Jamie when he was born( with James on birth cert). This is what she introduced him as to everyone who visited in the hospital but they called him James and eventually my poor mum went along with it.
Fast forward 18 years and my cousin is pregnant and plans on calling baby Jamie! This isn't a coincidence we don't think as her sister my other cousin named her DS Ethan, which was my mums first pick for her DS2 but my dad didn't like it so they called him Nathan. When baby Ethan was born my auntie said to my mum 'oh we know you wanted to call yours Ethan' 
So that's both cousins, daughters of my auntie who has known my mum through all the births of her children, who have picked names they've known my mum loved and wanted.
Just wondering if you've ever experienced someone stealing your name choice.
