Ive had names picked for like 10 years, and even though I always knew they would be my babies names, now I'm actually pregnant I have to say I've questioned them, never the first name, but the middle names, one in particular (if Spock is a boy it will be his 2nd middle name). I LOVE the meaning of the name, but the name itself isn't sitting well with me, DH hasnt helped every alternative he has shot down so Id say I'll just keep it how it is, and I expect it to grow on me.

I also think that because I have had these first names picked for so long, they are locked in just because of the time. I still love them, and I think part of that is because they have always been the names and are 'normal' to me. does that make any sense?
our boys name has grown in popularity too, I now a few kids with them name, plus it is a common nick name for a more common name. This did turn me off a little, but at the same time it has never been an option to change it because they have been locked in for so long.
