Help[Opinions] Re: Using Ex’s Name on Child
in reply to a message by Gaia
If the partner is deceased, AND it's a name I would have considered anyway and really liked, then it could be just fine.
If it's a name I don't really like, middle name would be okay.
If the ex-partner is still alive, highly unlikely.
It's very hard to imagine wanting to name a child with someone else, after a living ex. (It bothers me a little that my child was born on my ex's birthday ... and it wasn't even a bitter breakup.) So it's hard to imagine finding it acceptable if my partner wanted to do that.
But it would depend on everything. It's conceivable that I could be okay with it under some circumstances. Just in general though, I don't feel like I would be.
