My sister-in-law is 5 months pregnant, this is possibly going to be their last child so they wanted it to be a surprise and not find out the sex. She has decided to name the child both my choice for girls and boys names when it is born. When I told her it upset me, she replied with well you aren't pregnant yet. Now I get that, but the names my fiance and i have chosen are his family names, names that are not negotiable because of generations of his family naming children in this manner (after the great-grandparents) and I don't want to break his family tradition. I told her we are still naming our kids the same names which I think is unfair to the kids but my fiance and I cannot, for respect of his family, change the names of our first born son and daughter. So now, no matter what the baby's sex is, she will be taking one of our names. My parents will have grandchildren with the same names. I think she is being totally sellfish, I am trying to be accepting of this but I'm hurt.
