Should I change this to suit my mother?

[Shanti]

Yep, stuff everyone else.... you do what YOU want it's YOUR child

I'm so sick and tired of people saying to us "so what names have you decided?" and I'm like "umm well we don't talk about names".... I just don't get why people ask!!!
besides, we know the gender but haven't told anyone so why would we tell them names we like!!!

I'm over it too. We don't discuss our choices with anyone. If someone asks, DH tells them (with a straight face) we will be calling him Buck or Keefe. No idea where he came up with these names, but it's funny to see the looks on people's faces because they have no idea if he's serious.

Your mum has had her turn for name picking its your turn now!!! Hayley Nicole is lovely

I am sure you will already have read back your original post and realised how ridiculous it is to consider changing your babys name to suit a petty preference of your mum. She is being manipulative whether she realises it or not. Stick with the name that you want. If you really feel that you should compromise then change the spelling to something less traditional.

Yep...definitely your baby = your pick. Your Mum will get over it within a week and if you change for her you'll probably never forget it!

Stick to your guns, but you should torture your mum for sure!!

Tell her its going to be Nicole Hayley, find the name of everyone she hates and throw those around when she is over next time.

Awesome!!!

ABSOLUTELY NOT!! Don't do anyhting to please anyone else but yourself and your parnter. It is not your mums decision. Tell her if she liked the other name so much then she should have thought of it when she was naming HER children.

Your name choices are beautiful BTW.

Your baby, your choice!!!! I love the names you chose.

We aren't telling anyone the name we pick this time. There is always someone who won't agree . BB members are the only people I will be telling .
