    Am I correct in assuming the baby's last name will be his? If so, he already has a family name in the baby's name.

    Ask him if it is so important to him to have that particular name as your baby's first name, then he won't mind the baby having your last name. Just a statement. I am not saying do this. He has to start listening and communicating properly.

    Maybe write down what you want him to know, give it to him and walk away. Let him digest it in his own time then come together to talk.

    If he can't compromise on something so important, what will happen when your parenting differs? He has to compromise somewhere otherwise he can destroy the relationship.

    I think he has some serious growing up to do!

    Totally agreed chocaholic! Have been trying to get him to go counselling for a while so he can learn about compromise and communication.. but getting him to agree to that is also a challenge! I keep persisting..
