We had decided on Sophie for a name and my OH has just told me it is an ex girlfriends name!!!! Wtf! He tried to justify it saying it was a daft under 16 relationship but I'm still raging!!

Do get a grip.

We could not have called DS, Stephen, Pete , Dan, James, Joe, Max, John, Hal, Rhys, etc except we did call him one of those names and I had not until now even remembered I had a boyfriend when I was 18 called it. I have just told DH who said 'MMMM' as he was reading on his ipad. Totally unbothered.
FFS, get a grip.

Name and shame her.

Her names is Sophie... I hope she's suitably shamed by these events & gives herself a good talking to for having the audacity to be called Sophie the name stealing bitch

C'mon OP you can still call your baby Sophie. Under 16s relationship is nothing unless you end up together Hmm

I agree with DelphiniumBlue. Perhaps the only solution is to give the baby a yoonique name. Furious perhaps. or Notmydadsexgirlfriendsname.

I love the name Sophie. Couldn’t care less if dp had a teenage love of the same name.

I’ve just realised that one of my dc has the name of a teenage ex. I hadn’t realised. So thanks op, now I have to decide whether to tell dp or change a 17 yo name? Fecking furious!

whiskeysourpuss · 12/07/2018 15:28

I'm feeling extremely grateful that all my ex's have shit names 🤣

MikeUniformMike · 12/07/2018 15:35

Littlechocola, you can't steal the name Furious now can you, it's just not fair, and how are you going to tell your ds aged 17 that he's now got a new name.

Littlechocola · 12/07/2018 16:02

MikeUniformMike I’ll just call him ‘getintheshower’.

MikeUniformMike · 12/07/2018 16:12

I like that. It sounds ideal for a teenager. Is there a "tidyyourbedroom' too. I think I might have been called Youtreatthisplacelikeahotel at that age

She wasn't a serious girlfriend...
He probably just wanted to be honest (or maybe he honestly hadn't thought of it?)

My first "boyfriend's" name was probably Benedict... But I'm honestly not sure. And I'd still use the name... (Just like I'd still use the name of my childhood "fiancé")
