| Call him the name you like. Seriously. I know several kids whose nicknames are nothing like their "real" names. |
| I'm one of the call-him-what-you-like posters, but, really, if it bothers you so strongly this far out, maybe change it? |
| First time I posted on DCUM I got some really bad advice (and was slammed for my planned course of action). I ended up going with my plan, and hindsight has shown it was definitely the right thing, but the dcum response really got under my skin at the time. I'm just glad I didn't act on it. I'm sorry you're feeling this way, op. |
love this |
| You could still change his name. My cousin did this and had a name changing party for her kid. She didn't think the first name she picked fit his personality. |
It's all in the way you present the information. |
Blame the victim, how classic DCUM. |
| Leo and Max are what's considered spunky? You would have had a heart attack hearing my child's name. |
Is it Ryder? |
Huh? What victim? |
close Rhys, but it might as well be Pilot Inspektor considering how conservative this board is. |
| If you are in MD you have one year to change the name for any reason without a whole big issue. I like the idea of a naming party. Maybe anounce his name at first birthday. If it upsets you this much, address it now or forever hold your peace. |
| I just posted about changing name in MD. FWIW I really like Rhys |
|
Leo or Max? Watch out we got a rebel here! The next child's going to be a Jayden or Hunter or Skyler or Jackson or Dakota or Benjamin or Dante--real rebel names.

| I like Rhys too. |
