When bf doesn’t like your favourite name 😭

We don’t know what we’re having yet but I fell in love with Imani for a girl. Bf says no as it’s too similar to his family members name.
Any suggestions on something similar?
I like names along the lines of Maia, Valentina..

Why does it matter if dd has the same name as a family member or friend?

Love Gaia that's one DH has said no to so I feel your pain! I know a 7 year old Inaya as beautiful as the name. Also Aaliyah and Ariana
