My partner and I have been together for a few years and we know we want children in the future (not anytime soon). He is set on a name for a baby girl that he LOVES, but I hate it. How do we compromise?

is it common and you just don't like it, or is it kind of unusual

Its common, I just don’t like how it sounds. I also am not looking for something crazy and unique, this just happens to be a name I don’t like the sound of and I also know a lot of people with this name

alright here's what you do. you tell him the reason you don't want to name a kid that is because someone with that name did something horrible to you and you don't want to be reminded of it by having a kid with that name

The problem is I did tell him that and he is still like set on it and he was like idk this might be a deal breaker😭 everything else with us is perfect and I don’t want to break up over something so silly, so I could just put up with the name I just wish there was a better solution cause it’s my kid too

if that's a deal breaker for him then you're dodging a bullet tbh
