Oh wow. Keep your name for sure. Tell her that's an immature reason to have her son named what you want for yours. If it was meaningful to her as well at the same time you wanted it, and she had talked to you about it, it wouldn't have been so bad.

Id stick with the name and simply remind your "friend" that copying is the form of highest flattery. Make her feel like crap for not being able to be creative enough to come up with a name herself.

On the other hand - Ive come across this situation with two of my friends. They both are expecting and due in the summer but when one voiced her chosen name the other liked it too. HOWEVER she at least asked my other friend if she was ok with using the same name IF she couldnt think of something else. But in your situation Id definitely claim bragging rights over her about how your idea "inspired" hers. Your friend might change her mind then not wanting to seem like some ignorant "beep" who cant conjure a name herself.

Name your son what you want! She is clearly not a friend and won't be around anyway.

My eldest is called Tristan, so I say stick with it as it's a great name! Forget about everyone else and name your baby whatever you like. It's upto you. Who cares if someone else wants to give their baby the same name, it's not about their baby it's about yours. Naming a child is a big decision and if they are only doing it to try to steal the name from you it just shows that they don't have the maturity to be a parent. Maybe she genuinely likes the name too, in which case I wouldn't worry about it. It sounds like she is being very immature about it though and if it were me I wouldn't want a friend like that, so Id cut them off too!

My sister did that to me but she gave her daughter the female version of my sons name. At this point in life i dont care. But your friend id wrong for not listening at least to your side. But dont change the name because of her.

Oh I'd be so mad. I keep all my names secret cos I know some Muppet will probably pinch it first ....  My own sister copied my daughters name Yeats after!!! Why would ppl even play games like that!!!

Tell her you've another name you heard that stole your heart, blag her and see if she sticks with Tristan... X

That's horrible! I'm sorry. U need to tell her that's what your naming your son. And if she doesn't want your sons to have the same name pick anther one

Situations like this are the reason why my bf & i decided on a name together & we've told no one our choices for boy or girl (don't know the gender yet) sorry to be blunt, but people in general get nasty when it comes to naming baby..you're supposed friend is a beep.

I would have done the same. If you like the name and that's what you wanna name your son. Stick with it, don't let her take it away from you. She's probably hoping that since shes due first, you'll end up changing your mind and choose a different name. So maybe if she sees your stickin with it she'll change her mind. Either way if it's the name you want stick with it, and your way better off not having a fake friend like that around

I had a friend who did the same thing to me. I found a name that I liked better anyway even though I had my baby first, but no you're not wrong she is.

That's rude of your friend. Name your kid whatever you want! If you are already wanting to write her off, it won't really matter if later on in life its the same name
