so i’m almost 6 months pregnant and my baby’s dad just recently started coming around consistently. for the first like 4–5 months i was basically doing this alone. we barely talked, i would text him and he wouldn’t answer, and he just wasn’t involved at all. because of that, i ended up picking out a name by myself. i wanted him to be part of it, but he just wasn’t there, so i made my decision and got attached to it.i also decided the baby is getting my last name since we’re not married.now that he’s back around, he says he hates the name i picked (Genesis, it’s a boy) and wants me to change it. but i really don’t want to. the name means a lot to me, especially since i went through most of this pregnancy alone.i did try to meet him halfway and told him he could pick the middle name, but i want to keep the first name.
am i wrong for not wanting to change it?
Don’t worry about what your baby’s dad says however don’t name your son Genesis.
Your child is a human being who has to live with that name for the rest of his life. He shouldn’t be named as a testament for something going on in your life. Don’t make his name about you.
Also, the two references I get immediately from Genesis is Sega and the Bible … Neither should have children named after them
And the band!
It is \*such\* a bad name. Agreed.
Look you’re NTA for picking your baby’s name on your own. If Genesis is the real name and not a stand in to anonymize this post, please consider that that kid will be bullied.
YTA for wanting to name a baby Genesis.
Don’t pick on poor Genesis Sussudio like that! 😉

At least she didn’t go with Jenysis or Gennasys
NTA, the audacity to want an opinion when he’s only been around for a month! But in saying that, please don’t call the child Genesis! That’s just cruel.
Genesis?
Id want to change it too.
NTA for choosing your son’s name by yourself but girl does it have to be that one?
Genesis…for a boy? I’d hate to side with the baby daddy here but cmon now. You’re NTA but don’t name a boy that
NTA. Definitely don’t change the name for the absent dad.
But maybe change the name for other reasons
