Will I for sure know what to name my son when he's born?

Question

With my first son I knew a couple months before he was born what to name him. Now I'm 32 weeks pregnant with a 2nd baby boy and I have a few different names I can't decide from. I'm worried I won't choose the right name when he's born. Anyone else have this issue? I'm stressin out over this!

Answer 1

I'm sure once you see him, a name will fit perfectly :)

Answer 2

No, we went with family names. Well my son is named after his dad and my daughter has my g'mas middle name. Her first name we came up with.

Write down the names you are debating against and say them outloud. Think if they can be made fun of in anyway, kids are cruel. ;)

Answer 3

when you look at your son, see what name fits him best.

Answer 4

When I was pregnant with my girl we didn't know if we were having a boy or girl. We had two boys names and versions of a girls name picked out- we figure we would know when we met our little one. I took one look at my girl and knew. For her it would have been Lily or Lilyanne but she was just too small for a big name-lol Lily just suited her and that is who she is. Don't worry- have a few options and things will come together when you meet your little one- Good luck

Answer 5

I am sure once you have him, the name will come to you and it will be the right one.  Down the road if you don't like it, you can legally change it.  I know that sounds crazy but my sister in law's parents changed her name when she was 4 years old because they didn't like the name the picked! It never confused her.

Answer 6

yes once you see him you'll know.

Answer 7

some babies go for a few weeks before they are named. you dont have to choose a name right away if your not sure.

Answer 8

dont stress, once you see him the right name usually comes up, you will be happy.
