Baby Names

Help nix this name

DH is determined to name LO Chancellor if it's a boy.  I really don't have anything against this name except that I know he is only going that route so he can call him Chance, which I really dislike.  So give me some reasons to tell DH no to Chancellor.

Re: Help nix this name

  • Because it's a stupid name?  Chance isn't horrible, but Chancellor is just ridiculous. 

    Has your DH ever heard of the word compromise?  Wait, don't tell him that.  He might want to name your LO that!  Stick out tongue

    Seriously, you both need to agree on the name.  He can't just dictate to you what your LO's name will be.  Just make sure he realizes that YOU complete the birth certificate.  Devil

  • What about Chandler? Might be a better alternative, but it has a major Friends association!

  • Because Chancellor sounds like a wimpy prissy boy name.
  • I think its more of a title than a name.  
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...

    What if he ever becomes a Chancellor of a college?  His title will be Chancellor Chancellor Lastname.

    This exactly.

  • I actually laughed out loud at this one. How pretentious. Just give your DH a swift kick in the ballz and tell him to come back to earth.

    Agree.  Just name the kid Chance.  That is a fine name!

  • I don't care for the name Chance, but I'd much rather have him be named Chance than Chancellor! Awful name.

  • How about using it as a middle name? That way it'll be a compromise.
