When I got pregnant, I had a name picked out already, but didn't tell SO. I wanted to name him Gage Ki & call him Ki. He comes up with this name, Joseph Blaine, going by Blaine, (DS is the 4th Joseph in a row of the family) out of no where though & told his whole family & they all loved it. We ended up naming our DS that because it's not a bad name. SD comes over this weekend and says "You stole my mommy's name." I said "What?" & she said "My name was going to name me Blaine if I was a boy." I asked SO about it & he said "Don't worry about it, he's Blaine now." WTF?! You made me name our child the name your ex-wife had picked out? Jesus. It just makes me sick to my stomach for some reason. I never in a million years would've picked to name my son Joseph Blaine, or anything close. Ugh. I want change what we call him, but he's almost a year old. I want to call him Ki. It has nothing to do with his name though. =\ I just feel like poo.

I will stay at home, rear-face, public school, wear my baby, attachment parent, and refuse to spank. I'm pro-choice, democratic, athiest, and all for world peace. I support gay rights, I'm not racist, & I believe we were all created equal. My son is my life, he makes my heart melt.

Holy crap! I am so sorry but I think some how you're going to have to accept it, it's a little late now. That would totally put me over the edge....

It's pretty shitty, I think. If I would've known this in the beginning I would've said hell f'ing no. & I wish I would've just stayed with the name I wanted.

I don't want to legally change it, I don't suppose. Everyone in the family loves his name. I just would like him to go by Ki, which I love & have forever. I don't even know how to go about it.

I never thought to ask what SD's name would be if a boy. I/We never picked out a girl name. If he had came out a girl he wouldn't have a name. I have a boy & girl name picked out now. Lol.
