I am so sorry you are going through this. But this is exactly why we aren't telling anyone our name choices!

Re: the name saga....

wow...out of line much? I cant believe she had the nerve to call you and tell you not to name your child that...and that she asked HER friends what they thought and they all hated it Chat Icon Chat Icon

Personally, I love the name. I think its unique and very pretty. But even if I didnt...it doesnt matter. Its not MY child.

Good for you for sticking to the name you love even though others are being rude and outspoken about it! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: the name saga....

wow people got some big ones!

Not that it matters but I think its a beautiful name!

I made the mistake of telling people what I want and for the most part I got good reactions except for a few and of course the main one being my MIL! All because the initials would be BB
and its not a name she knows!

I've had the named picked since I was 12...still love it and want it so unless my dh comes up with something we both love my little girl will be Brianna
and yes her initials will be BB

(don't know middle name yet) Originally I always wanted Brianna June but my SIL killed that...you really wanna name a little girl BJ....only my SIL could think of something like that but of course now that she said it I kills it for me!

Sorry my reply turned into my own little vent

It is a beautiful name and she should have kept her opinion to herself.

What? I really don't see anything remotely wrong with the name Siena Jordyn. I love it. Beautiful name!

Geez...you'd think you were calling her Purple People Eater the way she reacted. Chat Icon I'm glad she apologized and realized she was wrong.

Re: the name saga....

What?? If you were naming your child sh!thead, I could see the need for the call. Once the baby is here, it'll be her name - period. Forget about the rest of them - Siena Jordyn is a beautiful name. Tell your sister she's lucky her niece isn't Apple Martin or Inspektor Pilot Lee Chat Icon

That would have made me really angry. This is why we're telling NO ONE our name.

I'm so sorry she did that to you. Forget what she said... as long as you and DH love it, that's all that matters. Chat Icon

Re: the name saga....

Your sister is way out of line. I agree with most everyone here - if you were naming your child something that no one ever even heard of, she *might* get away with mentioning it. But Sienna and Jordyn are both beautiful and certainly not unheard of (not that it matters) Name your baby what you want to, when she's here no one will even remember they objected.

Re: the name saga....

LOVE that name! btw. same thing happened to me when i told eveyone i was naming my son Logan. I got alot of stares and no comments. My mil told me "yuck". I still named my son Logan and now Everyone i know loves it. Even my mil said "you know he really does look like a logan, im sorry i ever said anything". So you may be surprised, people will come to love the name, and if they dont, who cares.Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: the name saga....

Sorry you had to go through that... She should have kept her mouth shut... I told my family if you don't like the name too damn bad it's our child not yours...

Besides I love your name choice... Dh and I also want something different...

I love your name choice. Everyone should just keep their mouths shut because once your little girl is here no one will say anything about her name because they will love her for her.

Re: the name saga....

i this the name is beautiful, and i am very sorry the sis ter is giving you such a hard time. Maybe you can give her a little reminder that this is your baby and not hers. And you will choice whatever name you want.

I just hate when people tell someone ooo i dont like that name. its none of there business, do they realize how much thought and consideration moms but into naming there baby
