Personally i dont think it matters, some people have names picked out for their children before they fall pregnant.

I dont think it matters. We were dead set on a name before I even got pregnant and now we hate that name and have chosen something else. We call her by her name but whether it turns out to actually be her name is another matter!

I think it's ok to name your LO but I wouldn't keep it too set in your mind - I've been through a few names and I expect it to change again when we meet our LO, lol.

it depends on the name i suppose, a little nickname fair enough, but at 12wks and hes referiing to it as either a girl or boys name, hes gonna be dissapointed if it aint what he thought, especially with him naming bump it gives him more of a bond.

but we were always set on my sons name, and i 'felt' my son was a boy from early on and my scan proved that right anyway, although we never referred to him as his name, it was baby or beanie as the odd times i did call him by his name while expecting it made me feel like i was talking about someone who had passed away and i didnt like the idea.

id let your fella call it what he wants so long as he aint gonna be too disapointed in its outcome, at the end of the day, hes showing an interest, some men dont!

We had our names picked out about 5 months before I got pregnant. (Both male and female). Nothing wrong with it, but just be prepared that your baby might not look like the name you've given it. I've known that happen so many times!! I just hope it doesn't happen to us, lol.

How do you know the sex? I wouldn't refer to the baby by any name until I was certain of that.
