Can I overrule DH and DD's? HELP!
| Sun, 01-16-2005 - 2:35pm |
I'm Expecting Number 4! And though we have 3 girls and are hoping for a boy (chinese birth chart says boy!!) We are planning for either! Here's my question. . .
DH and DD's (oldest 2 ages 8 and 5) have decded on first names.
Nathaniel or Samantha.
They have "generously" suggested that I pick out the Middle names. But LOL, I don't like the first. Nathaniel has kind of always been one of our picks for a boy, but it just doesn't feel right you know.
The only MN i can come up with is:
Nathaniel Kim (After DH DF)
Samantha Jane--Only one I can thank of that sounds ok but I DO NOT like it.
CAN I OVERRULE??????? What do you think???? Any suggestions on middle names???

I think it should be a name that everyone likes. If you do not like the names they have picked out, then YES you can overrule! :) Good luck deciding!
I like the name Samantha myself. I think it would sound good with a 2 syllable mn, like Samantha Danielle, Samantha Christine, Samantha Nicole, Samantha Camille, etc.
Congratulations on your pregnancy!

OK here are the other names in the Family:
Kaitlyn Marie (NN Kaity)
Elizabeth Rose (NN Ellie)
Anne Christine (NN Annie)
Last name of Thompson.
What about Samantha Renee? LOL But no way am I calling her Sammy!
Any Ideas for a boy? Perhaps that go with Nathaniel?
Yup, you can definitely overule, my friend. You carry the baby, you get veto power. That's the way it goes.
If DH puts up a fuss, wait until you are in labor, and then you tell him what the baby's name is going to be. If he is a smart man, it will not be a time that he chooses to argue with you.
Let us know what other names you like, please!

Yes, you can over rule! You have to love the names equally!
How about using Nathaniel and Samantha as mn? that may be a compromise. such as :
Evan Nathaniel or Grace Samantha...BTW, my friend has a Nathaniel James and another has Samantah Erin.
