Second guessing baby names.

Second guessing baby names.

I have a name picked out for my baby girl (due in 2 weeks)
But I have been second guessing it.
Do you think it's okay to change it, even though we've told people what her name will be?
Only just found out that we're having a girl at 33 weeks. So the name has only been out in the open for 5 weeks.

I have another name that starts with the same letter.

But is it too late? I'm just not feeling it anymore. What if, when she's placed in my arms, I just can't see me calling her by that name?

Of course you can. If you think someone might buy a gift with bubs name in it though maybe just mention that you might change it.

Change it of course!! Name her whatever fits and is right for you. This is for life it doesn't matter one tiny bit what you've already said and I can't imagine anybody caring, or feeling that they have any influence or say in it!

Definitely change it if you're not liking it. You'll hate it later!

I was suppose to be Rory-Jane right up until I was born, then my dad changed his mind and I'm Hannah-Jane instead... My 2nd girl was going to be Lily Grace everyone knew but 1 day after she was born I told her dad that I didn't think it suited her Amelia Ivy is 5 now and her name is perfect for her... So what if you have told people, if your worried about what people will say about a name change just tell people you just wanted to surprise everyone
