Help[Opinions] Re: I need honest opinions
in reply to a message by Mthebossmom
That's a great name. I would name a son Silvan. Seriously. There's nothing wrong with it.
You just made a mistake by sharing it before the boy is born.
Once he is named that, people will know to keep their opinions to themselves.
They aren't earning any control ... don't give it to them. You wouldn't let these people name your baby. So don't.
They will like the name when it is your son's name. When you know someone with a name, it always seems much better.
I've heard of family members who groused about a name, denying that they ever hadn't liked it, after it was given to a baby.
