How to agree on the baby's name?

Are you expecting a happy event and that's it, you just found out your baby's sex? Boy? Girl? Now is the time to find a first name for your future little one. For some this task turns out to be easy because the choice of first name is obvious, but for others it represents months of research and negotiations with his or her partner. If you rather fall into this second category then we will try to help you with some advice. This choice is complicated because a first name is for life, so you have to be sure of your decision. Plus, it's one of the first decisions you'll make for baby. This big question is no small matter. It is therefore quite possible that you do not necessarily have the same ideas or the same tastes in terms of first names as your partner or your partner. We will therefore try to give you some advice to finally reach an agreement.

Compromises

In this choice, you two have to make a decision. It is then useless to force the other to adhere to our preference if it is not at all to his liking. Indeed, it is absolutely necessary to communicate, exchange opinions, preferences to reach a compromise mixing your favorites.

Compound first names

You both remain fixed on your positions and you refuse all negotiations? So if your respective favorite first names go together well, why not test the compound first name? So no more arguments and your baby's first name will reflect both you and the person who shares your life. These are again more and more attributed and trendy so it's time. However, if you are not a big fan of compound names, you can give your child a middle name.

Do lists

Each of you, make a list of your favorite first names. The more your tastes are different, the more we advise you to register a large choice of first names, twenty or even thirty if necessary. So when you both have looked at many different sources and established your own list, we wish you to have at least one first name in common with that of your partner. Otherwise, who knows, maybe there will be one that he or she likes that he or she wouldn't have thought of.

A common memory

Try to find a name that will remind you of a time you spent together or something you have in common. It could very well be the first name of a character from your favorite movie or the first movie you saw together, a book, a trip or many other things... With this solution your child will have a first name that will symbolize your story and your love.
