I'm having a hard time sticking to a girl's name

I know if it's a boy he'll be Louis John the fifth aka LJ.

I had agreed to Lillian (Lily) for our girl originally but then  we came up with Leia (like the princess from star wars...lay uh) but I'm not really blown away with either name with the middle name Judith for his grandma.

I keep going back to Lorelei but he doesn't like it.
He said it reminds him of an ex girlfriend.... who know a lesbian.
I tried to change the spelling to change to Lauralei to see if he would budge and that didn't work.

I mean he get's the middle and last name if he let's me have Lorelei....How is this fair? Do you think he should consider giving me the first name since she'll have his last name and a family member middle name of his.

I wasn't even into Judith but it was better than the other family members name he wanted which was Rosemary. I like Rosemarie for a middle which was similar but he didn't. It was so much easier to name me first child because I didn't have to compromise with anyone but myself lol

He pretty much stuck on Leia or Lillian.
He's stubborn much like myself.
He's into star wars...that way Leia is what he really wants.
I'm kinda glad he isn't stuck on Padme from it.

I'm turn on the water works and complain that has gets all 3 names and how unfair and I regret agreeing to either because all I want is Lorelei.
I'll see if that works.

Wish me luck!

He wants him or her to have the same initials as him which is LJ.
Every morning he tells me and LJ he loves us before going to work.

I think you should be able to have some say since he gets the middle and last name however you wouldn't want your daughter to remind him of a lesbian ex of his lol I do like the name lorelei though.  You want it to for sure start with an L?
