[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make her middle name grandma's name.  Simple.[/quote]

OP said no to that in her post.  [/quote]

Well someone, either OP or her DH  needs to be the adult and realize life is no longer all about them and their preferences.[/quote]

Ha ha!  So it’s not the parents preference to name their child?!  Whose is it, dear - yours?

The child can go by her nickname or formal name when she wants to.  The family will probably always call her by her nickname.  [/quote]

Are you always an idiot or do you just play one on the internet?  Where did I say they need to do what I say?

They have to consider the child and the child of the future as others have pointed out if the child wants to go by her full name they have to deal. If DH   can't cope with this he either needs to pick a different name or go to therapy so he can deal. alternatively, OP   can concede and have it be a middle name instead of using her surname.  However, it seems they both rather inflict dram and stress on their daughter.[/quote]

Yeah, idiot, a name and a nickname are so much dram and stress on the child.  “My name is Margaret Smith Jones but my family calls me Summer”.  What a tragedy for that poor, poor child!  That was five extra words!!!

You’re a fool, PP.  The husband’s mother just died.  I don’t think therapy is called for.  [/quote]

Are you speaking from experience here?  Because as someone who had a name with an explanation it's a pain in the but and not just " 5 extra words"   [/quote]
I’m speaking from experience and it’s totally fine. And, you can go with, “Hi, I’m Summer Jones.” Most people don’t care.[/quote]
