My husband is a junior, so our son due in August will be a third. However I am gonna call him Tripp or Trés or JT (John the third). I named our daughter after my grandmothers so as much as I really don’t care for my son being a “third” it’s kind of his turn😂
Wow let the man name his son if that’s your problem going y’all in for a long road

My ex husband named our son and I named our daughter. That was our rule. He named the boys and I named the girls. But honestly, I don’t think men should have the automatic say over naming their sons after them. I know that may be an unpopular opinion but how many mother daughter duos do you see with the same exact name? I think it’s silly.

I feel you guys are putting too much pressure naming a child. He needs to calm down and maybe get a baby name book. Let him go through the book. Most names dont stick anyway. I was supposed to be Amy, and i didnt look like one. My sister named me 24 hrs later. Lol. My husband named both the boys (both named after hockey players lol) who named the firzt child? Was that child a boy? If yes, then that child should have been the Jr, not the second one. You must agree so that no one gets mad. Maybe stop talking about it for a while. If your crying over a name then its time to stop talking for a bit. Relax. Enjoy being preggers. Ask your other child what he thinks too…it could be a big help.

My husband & I used pink/blue highlighters in a baby name book & those that we both liked went into the “name pool” (then didn’t even use a name from the book). My son picked first names & daughter-in-law picked middle names.
Let him name the baby after himself if that is what he wants.

So glad my husband is not crazy uptight like that. I picked out names I liked and waited for him to pick out names he liked. He couldn’t come up with a single one and just agreed to which ever name he liked the most that I picked out. If we couldn’t agree it wouldn’t of been chosen. It’s not just his son and your doing 90% of the work carrying it so you should get a say.

I’m so glad my husband didn’t want a junior. Give the child his own name.

Tell Him you can pick one name him the other or to fu-k off or even better tell him you are going shopping and register birth while you are out
My husband didn’t want our son to be a junior, refused so I picked the first name and we used his name as middle name.
I refused to name my kids after my husband and myself. I have grown up with having the same name as my mom even though middle name is different. My dad and brother are 3rd and 4th generation so it does get confusing. I am sure at some point you and your husband will agree on a name if the little one is a boy.
My husband wasn’t having it! the boy had to be named after him we picked a few different names but my son ended up being a junior, he’s always wanted a junior… it’s a man thing just let him have it and you get all rights to the next name! I named our first kid (daughter) we both picked second daughter and he got the son.
How did you come up with a name for your first child?
Do that again.
Why don’t you try & compromise & offer him to keep his first or middle (he chooses) & u can pick the other. I don’t think that necessarily it should be so huge of a deal that its disruppting your lives & stressing either of you out…
I have a friend who had to agree with naming her son after the father because it was a generations long tradition. But if it weren’t for that reason she would have stuck to her guns. As it stands her son is now Tandy the 5th 
A man’s son is he legacy… Let him pass his name on to his boy.

Tell your husband if he wants the child to be named after him, then he must do the registration. If not you get to choose either the first or middle name.
Me must think a lot of himself to name another person after himself. People are individuals for a reason.
