Anyone ever changed baby's name after announcing?

Baby born in early May, couldn't register birth due to Covid. Registration booked for Monday 20th and having doubts about her name! Could just be because I'm sleep deprived and thus spiralling, but I only ever refer to her as "the baby" and have to think for a second when someone asks her name. I've told everyone her name already. Has anyone ever changed their mind in between announcing the birth and registering the legal name? I'm not sure I could handle telling everyone I've changed my mind after ten weeks of one name!

My friend did. It was fine, everyone got used to it within a few weeks. Smile
