No. of kids and naming them.....whose decision was it???

I don't have kids. YET. But hypothetically...

I'll let the best name win. If that means my dh is the one who comes up with all of our kids names, then fine. If I'm the one with the genius naming steak, then it'll be my names that prevail. Bottom line... we both have to like it and feel 'this is it'. Who comes up with it is really irrelevant to us.

 

hi tara,
i have 2 girls with c-Section. my dh wanted only one kid. i wanted 2kids because i don't want to leave my kid alone after we die. me and dh wanted girls and decided the first daughter name. dh named for 2nd daughter. later Fil found that names were not suitable according to their name stars. but dh kept those names only.

 

Well we don't have kids yet and neither are we both sure we want one so far. If we were to have one in the future, I suppose we'll both have a consensus on the best possible name.
In my parents case when they had me and my brother, dad got to pick my first name and my mum's choice is my middle name and it was vice versa in my brother's case.

 

In my case DH wanted only one kid while I didnt have anything in my mind then but wanted a healthy baby. But when I was pregnant he said we will go for the other kid if this is a girl, if it is a boy then we shall stop at one, this statement irked me and I decided and even told him "either girl or boy we will stop at one"

Then it was my decision to name her "Aakanksha" because I loved that name which I found in some novel and ofcourse my DH liked it to.

 

Nice thread Tara!!!
With us, we both love kids and wanted more than 2
But i conceived after 3 yrs of marriage around vn i was 25 and we decided to have a gap of 3yrs b4 we start TTC again (coz DH wanted my full attention to be on DS until he is lil older).
So considering my age factor (health too, i cant handle any more pregnancies after 30) our second one will be our last one for sure.
Naming, we both decided together a final list and he selected one name from tat and i was happy with his choice

 

[JUSTIFY]Naming i don't know whose decision it would be. But I would prefer unique names than regular ones. Will think of it when I am pregnant . Me and DH both love kids. I want two kids. My husband said he wants one kid ...reason : population control it seems :tongue ( he seriously means that !!). But I convinced him saying lets have two kids. if two Kids will have each others company and house will be complete ( just my opinion )..lets see [/JUSTIFY]

 

I don't have children yet but I suppose it would a be joint decision. Regardless of who comes up with the name, both partners have to like it.

I have this friend, male. When his two kids were born, his mum refused to let him name the children. His mum was very adamant that her dil - my friend's wife, the children's mum - name the children because she (the dil) did all the hard work of nurturing the babies in her womb!!!! What wouldn't one give for such a mil!

 

with me,we mutually agreed for two kids,but for names,he kept first baby name....but for 2nd baby,i liked my name which had a good meaning...but he was forcing me for other name but i kept mine in passport too..........but still he gets angry with me.....as the name was suggested by my sister.i get irritated when my in laws call her by the name their son liked.
