To name my baby what I want?

I had a little boy on Monday and he's been nameless since I learnt about the pregnancy. Myself and dp couldn't agree. With our dd he had his mom's name and I had my great grandma's name as it was better than what he wanted for her. So she has both sides of the family.

Ive always loved a particular name for a boy. An since I lost my brother a few years back, I want to include his name in ds's too.

Since we've bought ds home dp hasn't bothered to try and bond as he cries everytime he touches him. I'm doing everything. Everything for dd, ds and I'm not getting a break. Which I don't mind doing things for them. They're my children. But if he has to pick a child up, it'll be dd.
Im pissed off he's given up trying now. He's done one feed for ds and one nappy change cause it 'stresses him out if I pick him up'

Shall I just call him what I want being as though he won't bother?

If you pushed it out of your vagina (or had a c-sec for that matter) you get the final say what it's called. Dh is in full agreement that he will be naming all the babies that he pushes out. Baby is a few days old. So far the mum has done 100% of the parenting for the last 9 months. 50:50 my fucking arse - he won't even pick the baby up!
