Names you loved but were vetoed by your SO

Harper - I have wanted a little girl named Harper forever. My Ex also didn't like it
Atticus - Yes, I love the book To Kill A Mockingbird. DH thought that Atticus sounded too much like Abacus.
Jagger - DH liked it but didn't love it.
Jacoby - I loved this so much. Once again, DH was not a fan.
Estelle - I loved this, DH was not a fan and said it reminded him of George Costanza's Mum from Seinfeld. I ended up convincing him it is beautiful and he agreed to it, then I didn't like it anymore! lol

I have had it good with the girls names in that DH hasnt had much objection to any of them but the boys far out!! Good job we have 2 boys 5 girls ratio cos for our boys we have only ever had 5 names make it to the shortlist and we have used 4 of them as first and middle names on our boys. Boys names i LOVE but DH doesnt are:

Oliver (i did get this as our ds middle name but if i had my way it would have been his first name)
Samuel
William
Joshua
Noah
Matthew

They were the main ones, there were more but i cant think of them right now

[Tuesday's Child]

DH vetoed Elizabeth for DD1 because he had a crush on a girl called Eliza at school who wouldn't give him the time of day. Seriously, get over it .

This time he has said no to Susannah after my mum (who died last year). He says he doesn't want any expectations or basis for comparisons if we name our children after someone close. He also said no to Gary and Wayne after my dad (also deceased). I guess he has a point, but he won't even consider them as middle names.

Any name I suggest gets an automatic no so I'm refusing to discuss names this time. DD2 may well go through life as Baby D*.

[Astrid]

Astrid so I ended up using it as my username. Can't remember now if he truly hated it, or if it was a just don't like. First time he said no to Evelyn, but was happy with it second time around.

If we had a boy, I would have loved to have used Jeremy with the nickname Jez, but DH said the boy would get beaten up.

[NaeNae]

DH has vetoed just about all my suggestions for this baby, but then funnily I have vetoed ALL of his suggestions as his are all "too common".

I have thrown a new name at him and he is thinking about it, I don't think he will like it but if we get to the hospital and we still have not agreed on a name then she will be called what I want and I will put my foot down (just as he did with naming DD before I was 12 weeks pregnant with her LOL)
