name you wanted other half vetoed for no good reason...

[Enko]

The do you like your name thread made me think of this question.

Name you liked for your unborn your other half vetoed for no good reason. So I mean fairly common names you liked you didn't get to use.

Mine is Allanah dh was on a mega no.

Maeve

Cole or Arlo for a boy. Or basically any boy name 😅 girls names are so much easier for us!

Elliott. Lovely name and he just point blank refused it and I still don’t know why.
Love my DS’ name though and Elliott wouldn’t have suited him

Youngest DD ended up with the one name exH said 'I don't hate it' to after what seemed like an eternity of me coming up with dozens of ideas which he ruled out immediately.

coincidentally Maeve was one of my hot contenders, like Addy above.

Rudi

Imogen

Erica.

Zara, Pippa, Jemima, Asa, Felix, Rafe...

Leonidas or Themistocles for a boy.
Andromache for a girl.

DW is a misery guts.

Evan

I loved Lola but DH couldn't get 'charlie and lola' out of his head :(

Joseph, Noah & Daisy.

There have been loads! But in fairness "I just don't like it" is a fair enough reason!

Any biblical names.

Isaac and India

Alex and Toby. We had to compromise. It took a while. I only like DS’s name, I don’t love it ☹️

Harry

Lara, he said it made him think of the cricketer Brian Lara and he was appalled at the thought. I'd never heard of brian Lara 🤣

August. I loved it so much and was so excited that I'd finally found a boy's name I liked. But no.
Thankfully we had a girl anyway so it was moot!

Anthony, I really really loved it and dh just didnt

Lucas said it sounded too much like mucous 😂 when it came to naming our Angel I just chucked a list of neutral names at him and said pick one you like. He chose Quinn for the first name and I chose Emery for the middle name

I also loved the name Elliot. My husband was set against it for some reason

Also Elliot!

Juliet :(

Roman. Cole, Grey and Raefe
