Not sure I love my baby's name anymore

We called our baby Sebastian.

I felt a little rushed as after a week everyone was badgering us for a name. I really loved it at the time but as times gone on it feels really odd to say his name. Every time I say it it just doesn't feel right. It's too late to change it and he responds to his name.

Will he grow into his name?

Any positive comments on the name Sebastian to help me love it once again?

(Please don't make me sad with negative comments)

I had a massive teenage crush on a Sebastian. He started a band in the sixth form and had cheekbones and floppy blond hair 😍 Grin So it's a name which elicits nothing but nice thoughts for me! Also quite unusual these days but classic. I think he will enjoy his name x

Sebastian is a fine name!
However, I had the same feelings about my child's name. I changed it at age 2!
There was a lot of resistance from family but my child coped with it just fine! She now knows no difference and family now only think of her as her new name 😊

Oh Sebastian is so lovely.

I love the name!.

I have a nephew called Sebastian, we all call him Seb and his brother and sister call him Sebby which I think is so cute at that age!

Love Sebastian! Very handsome name. With Bastian for short, or Baz!

I'd have Sebastian on my list but mean DH vetoed it. It's lovely, classic. It. Not too popular.
