This is why you don’t tell people shit about your baby until it’s born. Good luck!

I think you should name your baby whatever you want. Don’t let anyone change your mind. Only thing to consider is how it will sound when they are adults.
No that what you both named him don’t change it for nothing and nobody if your husband doesn’t like it then divorce

I love it. Your baby, 
you name it… it’s different, it’s unique. You ,love it, GO, for it.
Ragnar is a f u c k I n g viking, literally. Your boy will be a warrior. Forget what everyone else thinks.
Love it ! I assume after Vikings ? Go with Ragnar Lothbrok or don’t even name him that lol
Tell mama she already got to name HER babies. This is none of her business and she should have said she loved it regardless and her personal opinion or preference. And your husband liked it before, so I would tell him to throw a pair and tell his mom he agrees with you and loves it. Just my take

This child will have to go to school and other kids can be cruel just remember that …
I’m not a fan at all but unique names are becoming very popular.
If you’re ok with his nickname being “Rag” then go ahead.

I like it. It’s an old Norse/German name. Very Viking vibes. Would definitely name my son this if I had another boy
And honestly, your family or anyone for that matter have no right to even comment on a baby’s name that isn’t theirs . Like, it’s YOUR baby, if you and your husband like that name, everyone else can deal with it.
When I was pregnant, the father and I decided to name our son Aiden and I told my mom and she made a face. She tried to convince me to name my son Connor bc SHE liked that name instead (or any other name that she liked), I told her no, Aiden is the name we chose and we like it and that’s going to be his name.
She quickly got over it and adores him.
I love it I think it’s not heard often and it’s masculine keep it
Don’t listen to all these people that say it’s strange and to change it. It’s YOUR baby, YOUR choice.
I’m a teacher. There are definitely worse. It’s unusual, maybe a little odd. But if you like it, you like it!
I didn’t care and still don’t that some people didn’t agree with what I named my daughter and how I spelled it. And my sons name is different. But it’s not what other ppl like. It’s what you and your husband like!
Yalls baby noone else should have any say in it rather it be strange or not to them … my sister gave me a dumbass look when I put my daughters name as Rogue. Didnt bother me one bit … my baby , coming out of me not her
That sounds like a Pokémon

It’s not her baby let her be mad about the name:joy: shit, give the baby 2 names she doesn’t approve of.
I would change my name legally when I turned 18
Your baby, your choice.
I have friend who named his son roxus
I like you’re name it’s neat!
Personally I don’t like it, but it’s your baby & you & your partners decision
Is he having a kid with his mom?? If answer is no then the opinion doesn’t matter name your kid as you guys see fit
I love it! But I love Viking names in general

If you like it, you like it. It’s an interesting name, so it’s possible your husband might not like it. Can you compromise or create a name you both like? Just a thought.

Its your child, but he does have to live with that name. My oldest is named Jasper. I was given a bunch of bs for it, but he loves his name and it fits him
I love that name! I googled the meaning of it and it’s Viking related. I’d definitely go for it!

Personally, I love the name.
I personally don’t like it and would never choose it but it’s your baby names and if you like it then use it
That’s how my family made me feel.
I’m a fan but I love vikings. It’s your baby, not anyone else’s. It’s not as unusual as these people make think especially now that vikings came out with Ragnar and his boys.

personally I don’t like the name, but it IS YOUR BABY. You can name it whatever tf you want.
Such a man child 
I like it better then a basic name
It’s a decision between you & your husband, it doesn’t include any other family members! If you both decided, mom shouldn’t have a say or such an influence over her married son! Your husband may regret not siding with you on this decision later on. Good luck
Ur baby name it what u and ir husband want to
Old world names are fine. My 2 grandsons in Norway have Norse names.
Oh no no, poor kid!!

Your kid, your choice. It’s a great name! His mum needs to back off and he needs to man up and back the decision you and he had happily made before mumsie put her 5cents worth in. Call baby what you want. She’ll love the kid regardless unless she’s a complete twatwaffle.
I see nothing wrong with the name of that is what you have chosen… do you momma… you have carried that baby and you have the final say on the name!
I don’t like it…sorry

Tell his mom she can use his moddle name then.
Your child. Your name choice.
I think it’s such a cool name! Love the Vikings reference.
I personally do not like it at all but its your baby so name it whatever makes you happy.
Just think about how the kids gonna like it as child and adult, they’re kinda stuck with it.
They already had the opportunity to name their own kids, now it’s your time to name yours. Everyone harassed me me when I named my oldest…. People have too many opinions and too much to say.

Maybe you should explain the history behind the name so that maybe they will come around.
personally don’t like it but I wouldn’t change it either just because other people don’t like it. our girls name is Harper, a fairly common name and we knew that when we picked it but we liked it so that’s what we kept it
Just think about him filling out job applications in his future…
Your husband obviously needs to agree on the name with you. But don’t share the name until after baby is born and named.
I like it! It’s different and a strong name. But Its your baby so as long as you like it that’s all that matters
Agree wtf are you thinking with a name like that!?

I would want to keep saying wagoner . Maybe try explaining the history behind it?
It’s your and your husbands choice. The family needs to get over themselves
Just realize that this is for life. He has to live with his name forever. Are people going to call him Rag? Will he be teased because it is so different? And your husband does or should have a say in your and his babies name.

But I like that name. It’s like the name Ragna from show Last Kingdom. Such a good show on Netflix

It’s a great name!!! You both agreed…but his mom has to put big nose in it!!! Whatever!!! Keep it…and tell her to SHADDDUP!!!
It’s your baby however he is the one going to have to live with it. Either stand your ground or compromise with your husband
Your baby your choice! Not the mother in law’s choice! She has no say. If you and your husband liked it before then go for it…
That’s an odd name I mean what is the meaning behind it does it have some kind of a special meaning as far as like family ties or heritage? If not I would just I would just say no it’s not a name I would pick it reminds me of something off of like an alien show
