Should I include SO in Baby naming, he doesn't seem keen on it, so far I got Alixander Maison Easton but I'm not sure I like it ... opinions ladies, is it important?

Question

Answer

Your SO made this baby with you. Without him there wouldn't even be a baby. So yes, I think it's absolutely his right to name the baby as well. Maybe he just needs more time. Me and my husband always seem to disagree on names the first 6 months. With one of my girls (I'm pregnant of my fourth now) we only found an agreeable name to the both of us just 2 weeks before I gave birth. 
I don't know how far along you are, but many men do not want to think of a name yet if the pregnancy is still in an early stage. Once he starts giving names he likes, you can search on sites together, and each of you writes the names he/she likes, and look at the end if you have some names in common. None of my daughters got that one special name I wanted for them, but I love their names and wouldn't want to change them. Their names are an expression of the love between me and my husband as well, as we chose them TOGETHER ❤.

Answer

My husband does this horribly frustraiting thing where he just says "we have time" and leaves it at that. And im talking for everything. 
Packing before we moved, picking baby names, all kinds of stuff. If its more than a week away from whstever deadline we have, he feels no neednto rush and it drives me insane. Some things just cant wait until the last min

Answer

We found out we are having a girl. Her name has been picked since we found out we were pregnant with our first. But my SO didn't really think much about names for in case of a boy. So we decided that we would write our name choices on seperate lists and swap them at 30 weeks. That way he didn't have to rush. He could write down a name whenever he thought of one and I didn't bug him about having a name picked out. At 30 weeks we would give each other our list and cross off names we didn't like. If there was one we both liked then great! If not, we had 10 more weeks to actively mention names to each other. Turns put we didn't need our plan. But it might work for you!

Answer

I completely agree, my SO has 2 kids from a previous relationship & I would say they're names are blander in comparison to what I'm thinking of I think that bothers him too , I'm look for that middle ground, where he feels comfortable & so do I. So that it's something WE did together. I don't think I've stressed the issue I'm only 8 weeks, so I'm not trying to do it now just I had came up with this name & he was like perfect I love it that's what we should go with & I think he was just saying it to make me happy but I want to put some brain power together into this & I feel like he has that personality type to just keep saying it's perfect no matter what I say. But I definitely think I should hold on now, thank you for your story it was inspiring , no matter how long it takes WE'RE gonna find the perfect name for US , ILOVEIT
