You can have just godmothers if that is what you want. Harrison has 2 godmothers and 2 godfathers. My sister & her husband, My brother & his wife. I told my other sister she can be godmother to the next bub, she has a long term boyfriend but I also would not be willing to have him as godfather, truthfully I would not want him to be role model to my child. Best of luck choosing.
