[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH and I agreed on the names of all three of our kids. [b]We never entertained the idea of picking a name the other one disliked.[/b] We didn't know the sex of our first two; thankfully, the oldest was a girl and we'd had a girls name picked out for years. For the second, a boy, we had a short list of names and independently liked the same one after he was born. And for the third, also a boy, we used one of the names on that shortlist for our second, because we still liked it. Easy.[/quote] Yeah, if someone really didn't like the name, it was off the list (which eliminated a couple of names I really liked). In our case, he suggested zero names, other than asking that, if it were a boy, the middle name be a certain family name. I came up with a list of names, he vetoed the ones he didn't like, and I chose the one I liked best. I guess I "won," but it wasn't really an adversarial process. [/quote]
