Name Change

[TeenMommy_2015]

So my baby daddy just made it official that we are not going to be together after 3 years of being together and 3 weeks before our son is born.
He was gonna be named after him to be a Jr but after this I don't want that.
So I decided to change his name but I don't know if it sounds good.
Josiah/Josaiah Adriel Villagomez?
Any opinions?

After you saying all that, it's messed up that instead you you decided to end the relationship he did. That relationship wasn't healthy at all. If he was acting that way then you should have never even had the thought to name your son after him. I proly wouldn't even give my child his last name ether. Never the less, it's your baby boy, you name him what u want to. If u don't think he will be active in your child's life... it's kinda like telling a dead beat dad happy father's day... HELL NAH. Lol

I agree with changing the first name I would also suggest giving the kid ur lastname too if he isn't going to be a part of the kids life or at the very least hyphenate it..i wish I had done that with my first 2 it would have made things much easier ie to travel with them etc..much easier if their lastname is the same

It's not childish nor bitter, and people name calling need to put a foot in there mouth especially when they don't know the whole situation. She asked for advice not judgement!

Now, I don't blame you at all. Honestly, it would be smart to give the baby your last name for numerous reasons. People will argue all day for what they morally think is right, but it's not about them or the baby daddy! It's about you and that baby. I flat out had a l&d nurse tell me, momma to momma, not to put baby daddy on birth certificate if he wasn't around. I already planned not to, but that spoke volumes to me.

Screw him if he can't even support you what kind of man is that? I don't think it's at all childish not to name the baby after him. No man who hits a woman even deserves a child. I think the name Josiah is very cute. And the baby has all he needs with just you. I hope the best of luck for u and ur little one.

I agree completely with rockrose and you, there is no need to name the baby after him if you don't want to. That's your choice, your baby, and frankly- nobody's damn business. Don't let anyone make you feel bad or tell you you're being "selfish". If he hasn't been there to support you you shouldn't bank on him being there for baby. Honestly I wouldn't even give baby his last name. Itll be easier for you as a single mother if he has your name and you can still get child support from your ex. I think you're being pretty smart and strong about this so, good for you ! And good luck (:

Btw, I think Josiah is really cute

You should give him your last name & name him what you want !! If he hasn't supported you or the baby then there's really no need for you to name him after him. That's not bein childish at all, you live & you learn . It's about what's best for you & your baby. Do what you think is best ! Josiah is a pretty name
