My partner and i are in the same situation. He loves this name that my old best friend named his kid. I just cant do it. Pp is right no one owns the name but personally i cant name my kid the same. Looks weird as to me.

Ofcourse you can use it....  My mum when she named me...3friends of her named the same name... We all were playing together and had fun.... I loved it having friend with the same name.... You don't need to ask anyone.... No one owns this.... If you like the name just choose it t

I wouldnt but it is up to you.  Think about how You would feel if the roles were reversed and your friend used your child's name.  Maybe ask your friend too.
