So I've always loved the name Joseph for a boy. When I suggested it to my DH he liked it, until I stupidly pointed out that it's quite similar to his ex wife's name, Jo. They divorced a couple of years before we became an item, not on particularly bad terms but it was obviously a painful time for him. They didn't have any kids so are no longer really in contact and he's obviously now very grateful that things worked out the way they did!
Do you think this association is something I could push him to get over or should I drop it? Tbh I prefer the full name Joseph to the abbreviation Joe anyway, though I guess it's inevitable that he would get called Joe eventually. We are struggling to agree on any other boy names!
