Am I out of order or being a bitch. Me and h2b are expecting our first child in April. Me and my sister in law have always discussed names of babies. I always had a little boys name but was never sure on a girls name. Now we've found out we're having a girl we cannot decide/agree on a name all that's in my head is the name my sister in law wants.... Should I confront her or just try and find an alternative name? As I don't think i would be happy if she pinched my boys name?! I'm so torn but I cannot get this name out my head!

Keep your SIL onside and choose a different name.

Normally I would say no one owns a name but in the situation you have described it’s a complete dick move.
