Ex's name - etiquette?

[Keepsake]

I'm not pregnant, just pondering. Have name changed because this list could absolutely out me!

My exes have all had wonderful names. Really to my taste. I couldn't ever actually use them, could I?

Names like

Oliver, Benjamin, Gilbert, Hugh, and Russell.

The name I like the most is Hugh, and we only shagged for 6 months at uni. We were never in love, and to be honest it was over a decade ago, I don't think I'd recognise him in the street anymore - so that seems a little bit more reasonable than naming him after one of the great loves of my life. I agree that would be weird.

Obviously DH knows everything about my dating history, and we are very happy. But I know I wouldn't be ok having a daughter with the same name as one of DH's exes.

Has any one ever done this?

I like the name Ryan, has crazy hot sex for a few months with a gorgeous American of this name... right before I met my OH.

I did throw Ryan in when we were expecting first baby but we had another name we loved.

I also like the name Matthew - had a short fling with a guy of this name too.

Sorry hadn't finished - as much as I like the names I really don't think I could call my son after someone I'd had crazy sex with (and def couldn't name them after an Ex)

If OH suggested it I'd be upset, I actually picked a girls name and he had to 'fess that he'd shagged a girl of that name years back!
