My friend has been married for 3 years. She and her husband are expecting their first child in December. (It's a boy.) They are trying to pick a name. Her husband really likes the name Jonathan, but he doesn't know that she has an ex-boyfriend named Jonathan. Do you think she should tell him about her ex or just go ahead and name the baby Jonathan anyway? (link)
If it stirs up bad memories for her then she should absolutely tell him! Once you name a baby, it's for life. Couples should avoid all names that stir up bad memories for either spouse. I'm sure he could find a name that he likes just as much without bringing up past relationships.

Thanks...The name doesn't stir up any bad memories.
