baby name reveal

I say baby shower! That way if people want to get him personalized blankets, etc. they can!

No we’re waiting. I’d hate for peoples opinions to change my mind on the name we’ve had picked for a couple of years x

Tbh i wish i kept his name private/surprise until he was born. Idc about people potentially buying personalised things for him. I have fun doing that myself 😂

I announced both of my childrens names after they were born

Were keeping our name a secret until she is born! Also we're not 100% sure, and we may change our mind when we see her for the first time x

We're waiting as don't have a firm name yet and also don't know the gender.
Also, I know so many people who picked a name and then when baby arrives changed their minds 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ ended up with personalised stuff with the old name on and not the one they ended up using

I think it totally depends on if you're open to getting opinions from family and/or your thoughts on personalized items. We waited because we didn't want either.

I can see pros for both sides. It would be fun to announce it at the baby shower. But they're right that the name might change. I really don't care if people know if we changed our minds on the name. That could make a good story. Anyways, I have been telling people our choices. Once we know the gender, we'll tell people but we won't post it on social media until the birth.

We didn't tell anybody my second baby's name until he was born. It wasn't really planned but we didn't pick his name until 2 days before so we never had a chance to 😂 I think it worked out though, I'm not sure my mom really likes his name but since she didn't hear it until she was holding him for the first time she's never directly said it. We really struggled to pick a name and I loved it but was already a little worried that we were just picking one because we were sick of looking and we wouldn't actually love it long term, so negative opinions would've really gotten to me. He's 4 months now and I love his name even more than I did then and it suits him perfectly

We tried to keep the baby’s name a secret until she was born. Our parents knew but my husband slipped one day to someone out the circle and only a few ppl knew but lucky I gave birth a few days after.

We’re just telling people as they ask. We’re happy with the name and don’t care enough about what other people think to change our minds

We kept the name to ourselves until he was born as whenever discussing potential names people were so opinionated and I didn’t want it to affect our decision

We've been sharing ours already. We like calling her by her name so it'd be to hard to keep it secret. We did tell our families first and haven't shared her middle name with the masses yet. Just the immediate family since her middle name comes from my mom's favorite flower.

As soon as we were 100% sure we told our families and friends and it’s been SO lovely that everyone can bond with him a bit more and not just call him ‘baby’.
Unless you’re worried about opinions (we’ve had no negativity whatsoever), I’d say go for it! Once they’re born, the news of their birth should be enough! You don’t need to make it anymore exciting with a name reveal! X

Hope either the name isn’t too long or you found smaller letters 😂 Imagine filling 12in letters for like Sebastian Vs Sam lol I think the letter idea is adorable!

omg girl if it was longer than 5 letters i probably wouldn’t be doing this 😂😂
