Did I tell you I suffer from headaches?

I know that her Great Great Grandma's name is Morticia. But I still don't like Mortimer. It's morbid, in my opinion.
Jerona sounds homosexual or something in that nature.

What you do is you call her Mortimer Jerona for a week instead of her real name. If she says to stop calling her that, then that would be your rebuttle when deciding not to name your precious boy that.

I'd read your last question a few hours ago or so...but couldn't find the words to comment on it. In the title i'd thought it was going to be a question of hormones, but after reading the body...well, i had to agree with the person who said you should take her to a psychologist, and had nothing to add.
When taken in conjunction with this....i'm begining to think that maybe she's trying to drive you away. Is there any possiblity that she might be becoming insecure in the relationship? Or, that she might be convinced that she doesn't want to be with you? --which is a common thing for hormoens to drive a woman to think during pregnancy, my husband and i deal with severe relational problems almost consistantly to everytime i'm five months pregnant. Of course, this time around we've identified the possible source and had prepared accordingly....we're doing much better this time.
This is your baby too...as far as you know, right? So, just straight up tell her that you hate the name. If she's set on it, try to find a comprimise. Is it suppose to honor someone, or is she just pulling stuff out of the air? How much longer do you have to discuss this before the baby's due?

Oh no... Well, just let her know that she is not the only person that has a say in what you name your child. The two of you are about to be married and that means you need to learn to compromise. I'm sorry, I just got off a rant about people and their opinions, but that is most awful name I've ever heard. Be strong and make a stand on the fact that you don't agree with her on this name. If nothing else, if she is still out of it after she has the baby, make sure you change the birth certificate...just kidding. I hope it doesn't come to that. Best of luck to you.

Explain you want your child to have a name they can live with - and not be teased about. Also agree to decide on a name you both like. Find a good baby names book, and read through it together. Make a list of all the names you both like. Then you can decide on the final name closer to the due date, after you've had some time to see what feels right.

I think your girlfriend has emotional problems because of the pregnancy,you should tell her the truth but giving your own options for names and choose one that both of you like.
by the way the name suggested is a bad name you are conditioning your baby to be a Butler or something like that.

Wow those are some awful names. Talk to her and tell her that YOU have say in the name too and you both need to agree on a name it would be in your best interest to by a baby book and sit down together and make a list then eliminate the ones you don't like or whatever

Oh my. What terrible names. Maybe you should sit down with her and tell her how you feel. Don't just say honey I hate those names. You have to be more sympothetic with her. Maybe say honey can't we choose a name together? Get a baby name book that may help. Good luck. Keep us posted on what happends.

Well does the name have any family history behind it? If it does maybe you should go with. When the baby is born give him a nick name. Or just call him MJ, kinda cool. Or compromise keep one of the names and add something you like..

I just found out yesterday that my dad left the house for a month after I was born because my mom named me after him! His name is Francisco, so she named me Frances... He wanted to name me Maccabi, after the cigar, or the spanish spelling for the biblical Maccabees, I am not sure which, because my dad is cuban, but he was also a seminary student in his early twenties. Anyway, I am now 27 and I am just finding out that he wanted this F'ed up name for me so bad that he was willing to leave the house and his new baby for a month to protest. I am glad my mom won by the way. Tell your fiancee that you don't want to name your son after a mouse, or that you don't want your child to be beat up every day of his life!
