Regret my babies name

She’s 7 months old and I have sleepless nights over it! Am I over reacting? I cringe when people ask me what her name is. It was my partners favourite name and we didn’t agree on any others. After she was born I think I was just in a whirlwind and said let’s call her Penelope like you wanted. Now I regret that! Even though he kept asking if I was sure.
Anyone else had these feelings?

7 months - you can change it. A good way to do it would be to add another first name before Penelope and gradually change over. People do do this!! It's really ok.

HOWEVER- Penelope is lovely, really lovely and gives you some good nicknames.

Penny
Nell
Lola
Ellie

So have a good think. Good luck.
