However, she expressed her discomfort with the name, explaining that it belonged to an ex who had caused her significant emotional pain.
She stated, “I’m pregnant. My husband and I are looking for a name for our baby. He suggested a name, but I told him I don’t want it because it’s the name of one of my exes, and it traumatized me a lot.”
Despite her objections, her husband insisted that he had always loved the name and had dreamed of naming his child after it.
She added, “He’s now saying he grew up loving the name and always wanted to name his child that. Right now, I’m not happy because I don’t want to hate my child.”

@I__E__O: “He should please change it so that that child’s name won’t be a living trauma to you.”
@Truthster24: ‘She still has feelings for her ex, and that’s the bigger issue here. As long as she has feelings for him, she can (if she hasn’t already) still go cheat with him. And the kind of feelings do not matter, as long as they’re passionate, whether it’s jealousy, love or hatred.”
@eddiebrendan: “Marriage should be about compromise. Maybe you should find a time when he is more sober and table the matter again, so he can see how this can affect you psychologically and, by extension, affect the child as well.”
@tippinmac: “You dey married and you past relationship is still hunting you sigh!”
@Ruthtiee: “Call your child the name you want him or her to bear. Because the child bonds more with mom.”
@Mumlizz: ‘It’s actually not that hard….He loves the name,the child is he’s aswell… it’s just a name…You can give another 5-20.. And your child is your bundle of joy,it’s a good way to forget your ex. Its very simple…we can both find a ground.”
@KINGOFEVERYUTD: “I guess that name is bigger than his love for you. He should compromise for you on this one.”
