[Opinions] Re: Gaylord
in reply to a message by Margaretta
I think it's too silly. It's not even just the 'gay'. It's the 'gay' plus the 'lord'. Lord of the Gays? I'm not saying you must throw it out, but I wouldn't name my child this because it simply is too easy. I probably couldn't say it with a straight face, let alone playground bullies.
Oh, and I think if your boyfriend despises the name, off the list it goes. I would think that if the name was Henry or Theodore or whatever too. Don't force him to use a name he hates. (And that goes the other way too, obviously.) The name should be one that both parents like.

I agree that both parents should like a name. I actually prefer having someone to help me with naming a child because they keep you grounded typically and aren't afraid to tell you if something won't work.
