My husband wanted the same thing! His family wanted the same first names.. I just said no bc it's a very different name and hard to spell. It's a family name so I put it as my sons middle name and we both agreed it sounded better. This way there isn't a jr and we aren't confusing him when he gets older and everybody won't be misspelling my baby's name like they do his daddy's! Ask your husband about sticking it as a middle name. I think it's wonderful to name a son after his father.. Just not a jr lol

Ick, I hate the idea of naming my son a Jr. For the rest of their life they will either be called junior or some other nick name so they don't get confused with their daddy. If it's for sentimental reasons than the father should be content with using it as a middle name. It's your child's name, you shouldn't go along with it just to make your husband happy. You both need to find a name you can agree on.

My hubby & family wanted my son to be named Joel after his daddy... I couldn't stand the idea. I didnt want my son to be a junior, he's his own person. So luckily, my hubby changed his mind & we names our son after our fathers.
