    Even though I've always had my names picked out well before birth, it is still always weird to say it for a while after they're born. I wouldn't be detered. xo

    MUMMY4LIFE - did the write it all down thing and it all works together (I think so anyway )
    satya- that was how we felt with first DS's name, he was named at 20 weeks

    Thanks to all for their replies... it's nice to know it's not just me! I think it has been so different this time doing the naming thing, that it feels weird. I'm going to stick with the name tho - and just look like a crazy person and say it out loud when no-one is around! Hopefully that way I'll be a little more used to it before he arrives

    I found it hard to call our DD her name for the first month after she was born (we still called her Bubble which was her tummy name lol!). I think its normal for it to sound a bit weird at first, and especially when you have those thoughts about "is it the right name" etc.

    It's always the case that the name suits the baby after a while... I can't imagine Jazz as anything else now
