I really love this name but it has been vetoed by DH. If I love Honor- what else will I like?

We must have very similar taste! 3 of those are also on my list! What did you go with in the end?

There are some quite nice ones here but nothing as special or as elegant as Honor I don't think.

I agree with you OP. None of these suggestions are as lovely as Honor in my opinion. Though I love Romola/Romulus/Romy.
Why has Dh vetoed? Any chance of changing his mind?!

AuntMasha · 13/09/2021 19:18

My Grandmother’s name was Honor. I think it’s a beautiful name.

He says that when said in conjunction with our surname it has a sexual connotation!! So it can be heard like "on her" and then plus our surname has an obscene pun basically!!!! I'm actually gutted as it's always been my favourite name but he says he used to get picked on for his surname sounding rude as kids do so he won't let her have Honor as a first name to add to it!!

Surely the solution there is to have your surname. Then the baby won't have a surname that has caused your dh to be picked on.

obviouslyncforthis · 13/09/2021 21:43

I need to know your surname!

bravelittlepenguin · 13/09/2021 21:46

@QuillBill not our first baby so the new baby would have a different name to the rest of us so not an option now sadly 😔
