The mum explained that her husband vetoed all of her favourite names which made the decision even harder than it needed to be. They eventually decided to call their little girl Sofia, but the mum wants to change it, despite the fact that her daughter is now 4 months old. "We picked a name in the final hour before discharge after much pressuring from hospital staff and went with Sofia since it was the only name that neither of us hated and liked a bit." She explained, "I should love the name as it fits many of my name requirements: elegant, feminine, having a strong meaning and rich history, and suitable with an Italian last name. The problem is that popularity almost ruins it for me.""We picked a name in the final hour before discharge"
The mum said they're constantly meeting other children with the same name and now it doesn't feel as special as it should for her little girl. It's bothering the mum so much that she's considering changing her daughter's name completely.
But is it worth the hassle and effort?
"I adore my son's names and I just wanted my daughter to have an equally wonderful name. My husband is not against a name change but thinks it is a bit strange to do so and worries about what other people will think," the mum shared.
Many people agreed that changing her name at this stage will be worth it. It's not like her daughter is a toddler or even an adult so changing her name won't affect her as much at this stage of her life.
Would you change your child's name or would it be worth the effort?
