Your husband can be disappointed but it is not "unfair". Naming your child is a joint decision and it's something you have to agree on. It isn't any one person's choice. If you don't like the name for your son then your husband has to respect that and quit being a baby about it.

Your husband should have a say in the naming of your child something you BOTH agree on. My husband named his first child {from a previous relationship} gave her his middle name. When I was pregnant with out son he wanted to give our son his middle name too but I flat out refused not only do I dislike the middle name but I think its pointless and stupid to have both kids the same middle name as their father. Did you have no say at all in the naming of your daughter? Like I said before this child belongs to both you and your husband and you both should agree on a name.

Why wouldn't you want to name your son after his father? Are you thinking about getting a divorce some where in the back of your mind?
There is nothing wrong with not naming him after his father. Our older son has his dad's (my husband's) middle name...and our younger son has his dad's (my husband's) first name as his middle name. The only person "upset" was my mother in law because we "broke the tradition". My husband is a junior and I didn't want to have my son grow up with a nick name...I mean, he has one now but it isn't because we might get him confused with his father or grandfather.
I think you two need to compromise.

try telling your husband that you want your son to have his own name something just for him... try figuring out a name you both like and go from there.... It is not uncommon men what thier son named after them.. but it could cause problems later on finacially for him i know some men that happened to ... look through a baby book and pick a name you both like and give your son your husband's first name a middle name.

Tell him that you are the one squeezing the baby out of you private parts and when he is able to do that himself, then he can name his baby after himself. And no, it not unfair that you don't want to name your son after his father. I am not a big fan of family names anyway after I got stuck with my middle name. Good luck!

who pays for what? It would be nice if you both liked a name you suggest. You both need to communicate more.

It's your choice. You are carrying this child. Go with your mothers instinct. Do what feels right. You should choose this time.

Why not find something you both agree on. (that's the way normal couples do it)
