Re: We shared names we like and my MIL has to give in her opinion
This is the reason why this time around we haven’t told anyone. Well DH slipped and told his mother and I said well I’m telling my BFF. So now we are even. My family keeps asking me what will DS2’s name be and I just say you will find out when we have him. If I tell you now you will complain about it and I don’t want to hear your opinion so deal with it. I LOVE my immediate family but they give me a headache often.

Re: We shared names we like and my MIL has to give in her opinion
WOW!!! People have some nerve. It's not her baby to name. 
I'm sorry you had to deal with that. People are soooo rude, I can't even believe it sometimes!
EDIT: Love the name Alexis!!

She's got quite a set to actually ask you to change the names even after DH told her no.
I'm glad your DH is 100% on your side with this. She is nuts!!
ETA - I love your names

Re: We shared names we like and my MIL has to give in her opinion
Ok she already HAS a grandaughter w/her name, seriously she needs another? Honestly she needs a reallity chk...she should be happy one is already named after her but two??!
eta my middle name is after my grandmother, I never really liked the idea, I always think ppl in the family compare me to her b/c I am her "namesake" it is not exactly the best association...

Re: We shared names we like and my MIL has to give in her opinion
ignore her! next time, say NOTHING.
my suggestion is that you go out and get yourself a dog and name it after her.. ;)
I happen to love the names you chose!

OMG I just snorted, that was great!!!!
I agree, she has some set of ballz to ask. We had our family ask to name them after deceased bc it's tradition and it's the hebrew name, but to say can u name one after me and she already has kids named after her

Re: We shared names we like and my MIL has to give in her opinion
I have a feeling this is exactly what's going to happen to me, so we're not sharing our names. I hope that after our baby comes they'll be so excited about the baby that they won't get all caught up on the name.
I have relatives in Europe who named their son after the wife's dad and not the husband's dad and the husband's dad is still upset about it. And I think the kid's about 6 mos old!
I understand tradition and all but how egotistical to expect for a baby to be named after you!
