They'll probably hand YOU the birth certificate to fill out. ;0) Better to ask forgiveness (if you feel like it) then permission.
Just remember.. the person makes the name.. the name doesn't make the person. Even if it's not your favorite name.. your child will make you love whatever you name him/her.

No way that's not fair at all you should definitely get a say in your baby"s name. If you can't come to an agreement about the name then one of you can choose the middle name. If that doesn't work then you should name the next child if you have one. But what your husband and his family are doing is definitely not fair at all anyway when it comes down to it this child is yours not the family's.

NO, picking the baby's name should be between the husband and wife. He is not being fair or just. The husband and family should not do it by themselves. Stand up to them.

Well your having the baby and it is a part of you and your husband not his parents you should talk to him and tell him you want to pick a name together and then come up with one you both agree on. He should understand.

Hello sweetie absolutely not, you and only you are the mother of that baby, you carried felt sick backaches swollen feet. And had your belly stretch to accommodate this precious little one, not daddy not grandparents.Mother picks the first name for girl father picks first name for boy and then you both decide the baby's middle name and if you want to let grandparents help its ok . But you stand firm and let them know this is my baby and I will decide what the name will be as you decided with your kids. Make your own list hon easy birth, and healthy baby wishes for you. Happy Holidays.

no you and your husband need to pick the baby' name and if his family don't like it tuft because they didn't give birth it the baby you did. and you should tell them that if they want to choose names your not letting them because they have no right they can only suggest names. but some husbands and wives decide that either him or her are going to choose the first child name and the other choose the other child name. like me and my husband we agreed that he would choose our first child name and I choose her middle name and our second child I choose the name and he choose his middle name and we done that with all 5 of our children. you need to stand up to his parents and tell them how you feel and you should also let him know how you feel about it to and try to come to agreement on the name between you and your husband not his parents. good luck. congratulations and happy holidays

You should definately have say in the baby name. You are the baby's mother. You carried the baby for 9 months. You went through the labor.. Yes, you should have a say in it. A very big say the ultimate decision.

That is absolutely insane. You and your husband alone should pick the name of your children. Sure in-laws can tell you names they like but you certainly don't have to go along with their suggestions.

No. This is your baby too. It should be between you and your husband ONLY!!! Tell the family that you are thankful for the names that they have given but you and your husband have decided to call your baby "whatever name you chose".
My inlaws tried that with us...instead, they've given them nicknames. But I refuse to call my kids those silly nicknames. We've given them their own instead.

It should be you and your husband who should pick your baby's name.
