What name should I choose?!?!?

I am 28 weeks pregnant with my daughter. And I have a name in mind that I fell in love with, but her father (him and I aren't together, long story; I'll make a post of that soon) wants a different name.

I love unique/not-so-common names :) And I chose Chapin Abigail. Chapin prounounced as CHAY-pin. I love it! But the baby daddy wants Mia Abigail, which is OK, in my opinion.

But my son's father, different guy, and I are together and he accepts her as his own child. He and my entire family love the name Chapin, too!

What do you think is the better choice?

Wow that is a hard one - how about Chapin Mia so there is a compromise?

Dh and I had to agree on a name to go with it, luckily, that was never a problem!!!!

I like those ideas :) but if i put the las name in there, then it would be a long name. I just might use them all :)

I don't really care for Chapin. I think she'll get that mispronounced alot, and picked on. I like Mia though. Or maybe try to think of a different name that EVERYONE likes good luck :)

 I think her first name might get mutilated.  I totally did when I said in my head before you pronounced it.

like the other pps said maybe compromise with putting Mia in there.

That is true, I don't want her to get picked on in school like I did. It was no fun.

 I like the name Chapin, but I don't think anyone would know how to pronounce it.  The name Mia is beautiful though.  What if you did Mia Chapin?

I pronounced it Chap in, she will get teased.

Mia is nice, maybe use Chapin as a middle.
