I can't get used to my DDs name and keep wondering about other names for her. It was a name both my DH and I liked, and had done for a while but really we had very few other choices as DH didn't suggest/like many others. I was always a little on the fence as it's not overly pretty but thought that was fine as I don't like frilly/fussy/cutesy type names. It also sounds quite similar to my own name and I worry that when called around the house it will be confusing - probably over thinking it! I don't think my mum likes the name either although she said it has really grown on her.
There is another name which I had discounted as it is the name of a friend of DS - I met the mum at a baby group and we see eachother fairly regularly. Now I am wondering if it really matters and I could have gone for this name.
I know I could change up to a year - how straightforward is this to do? My DH won't entertain the idea though, he thinks I am being ridiculous and have spent too long thinking about this.
Has anyone else been in this position? I don't have post natal depression which I know is often linked to this uncertainty but will I ever grow to really love the name and feel we have made the right choice. I remember having these doubts with my son's name (but not as bad as this) but now he is 3 I absolutely adore his name and couldn't imagine wanting to call him anything else.
Sorry for the long post, just helped to get it all written down - DH won't listen or discuss it with me.
