3rd Trimester
Changing name at the last minute
So for the last at least 5 months, we were naming the baby Kaden. I was never in love with it, but my husband was. He saw it written out the other day and decided he's not so in love with it. So we are looking at new names now, and Gavin is winning so far.
I've told everyone all along that we were leaning towards Kaden, but that's not his name. I hated it when anyone would call him that.
So I wonder if anyone is going to freak when we don't name him Kaden. I told everyone not to monogram anything so they shouldn't be too freaked out, right?

Re: Changing name at the last minute
My neighbor had a daughter and named her Lily Anne. They brought her home and three days later decided she looked more like a Lily Rose.
So they had to legally change her name, but they did it. It made for a good story.
It is YOUR child. You can name him whatever you want, no matter WHAT you've told people so far!
I hate to even say this, but I feel the same way about our name.
We've told everyone that it's Jackson Griffin Mc_____ (He'll be called Jax or Griff) but I like Jack Griffin (see siggy). I just don't like the "on, in" ending of the names together.
I'm glad we aren't the only ones with late name changes!
I never really liked telling people, but I always felt pressured to tell people something.
It's not anyone's place to be freaked out....you are allowed to change your mind at any point!
Besides, Gavin is a MUCH better name than Kaden. ?Love it!?
We were completely sold on the name Jackson until about three weeks ago. Now it's changed. We did get one mongorammed item at a shower with that name but it can be changed. I agree with pp who said it's not the name until it's on the birth cert so no one should be surprised at the change. I like Gavin much better as well. Good luck.
