Examples of names he's vetoed? Has he come up with any at all that you like? It was the other way round with me and DP. He came up with mad names and I got cross Grin

BertieBasset · 03/11/2010 20:05

Oh I feel your pain!

Names my DH has vetoed

Lucy
Francesca
Alice
Evelyn
Polly

His only suggestions so far are Eleanor (okay but not to my taste) and Oralie. Hmmmm. He did change his mind when I said DD2 would be known as Orally at school Grin

Marriage is a compromise. We could have ended up with Hector and Cordelia but he wouldn't let me. Smile

My Dh is the same, he must've poo pooed 100 suggestions. I guess we'll have an un-named baby for a week or two, then I'll grind him down bring him around to my way of thinking!

TrillianAstra · 04/11/2010 10:32

Dylan is not a girls name. Nor is Michael.

BarbieLovesKen · 04/11/2010 10:48

Agree with TrillianAstra, you cant call your daughter Michael. (or Dylan!)

I do feel your pain though, dh is the same here although I think we've finally agreed(ish)

TrillianAstra · 04/11/2010 10:51

Jessica is better than Gracie, about even to Olivia.

Do not call your girl Dylan or Michael. Your DH is quite right.
Don't see the problem with Jessica, Grace or Olivia, other than his personal taste. They're not bonkers anyway. What are his choices?

Anniegetyourgun · 04/11/2010 12:47

Grace rather than Gracie, as a middle name, would be rather nice I think. Olivia Grace. Would sound great at a christening, and probably safe enough at school since the spread changed its name from Olivio!

Jessica is ok too.

NinkyNonker · 04/11/2010 12:48

Oh yes, Alice was my favourite. DH totally vetoed...odd man he is.

BarbieLovesKen · 04/11/2010 13:05

Thats right littletreesmum, thought that too when I heard it.

I thnk Grace and Olivia are beautiful. You could use Gracie as a nickname while shes little Grace is better for when shes an adult imo.

Dont like Jessica but think this is only because the one Jessica I do know is a vicious bitch and I cant stand her Smile

Im sorry but am still shuddering at the thoughts of little girl Michael

Wasn't there an American actress called Michael something? Possibly from the Waltons or Little House on the Prairie...
