Hi,
We were looking for a Indian and English name and settled on Neil for our newborn. We went to see some English friends and a lady laughed on this name for our baby. I don't understand what's so bad about Neil as a name. Now I am annoyed and thinking of changing his name. DH thinks this is unreasonable as there can't be a perfect name and people will always have opinions. I am not sure if I should look for other name or just get on with it. Also, his birth has been registered and passport done with Neil. AIBU to think so much about it ?

I actually like Neil , it was popular in 1960s/70s and hasn't made a comeback yet but you could set a trend! The lady was rude to laugh.
There are many worse names imo.
It will soon become babies name and suit them.
