What do you think of this name - my brother-in-laws girl friend.......

She wants to name him Isaiah Harmon.

Harmon is Scott's middle name and he HATES it. What does everyone else think of the name? I don't like it at all. I know it isn't my decision, but oh yeah, I see a nickname in the works from me.

holley79 replied: I'm not very fond of the name either. I guess if they like it then that's their choice. Just not my choice though.

Kentuckychick replied: Aww... I don't think it's a bad name. I don't mind Isaiah at all and personally I think anything goes as a middle name. However, if he really hates the name and the reason she wants to use it is because it comes from his name then I think she should concede and choose a different name.

I personally have always said since I'll be the one giving birth I'll have the final say but I would never name my child something he clearly dislikes.

Mommy2BAK replied: For some reason I almost always like baby names, I guess because you never know... if it turns out to be the cutest baby in the whole wide world then everyone will be naming their sons after him.

But that is a little strange that she wont let the dad have any input on the name.

Cece00 replied: I dont care for it, but its not a BAD name. She could be naming him something really stupid, KWIM?

grapfruit replied: I think the only reason he's giving in (beside not having a spine) is that her other "option" for the middle name is "Anthony" (after her loser dad). And he absolutely HATES that (more then Harmon).

He got picked on a lot for his middle name (amoung other things) and doesn't want his baby to have the same problems. The way it goes a lot in our community (school system really) as bad as it is. Sometimes the lower income families get picked on a lot more. He had it pretty bad. His brothers not so bad b/c they would stand up for themselves.

I think he sees his son having the same problems he did, and lets face it, they're going to be low income. No schooling past high school for either, he's working at Wal-Mart, she wants to quit and not work and expects him to provide for them. She is honestly not smart enough to do anything better then a barely above minimum wage job. It's not nice but it's true. She's about as bright as a lighting bug. And unfortunatly she has him roped into doing whatever she wants him to do. The one thing she is good at is manipulating people. I feel so bad for them, well him. In the last three months (since they've been "on their own", mom's paid for April, May, and part of June's rent and groceries 2 or 3 times, and we've bought them groceries once). Obviously they don't have it together yet...

NOBODY in the family likes the name. I asked her the reason for naming him that, and she said b/c it's in the Bible. That was the only reason she had, not even "because I like it". Girl, read the Bible, there's better names then that!!!

I'm actually surprised it's not something complete stupid!

momtoMegan&Alyxandria replied:
Yeah, when she swore she was having a girl she wanted to name the baby Harmony Marie. So she would have the same name has her dad's middle name (remember if the baby is even Scotts) and her middle name. Scott hated that name too. I think she is coming up with these names just to make him mad.

DillsMommy replied: I think Isaiah is cute, probably not something I would pick, but it's cute. Not too crazy about Harmon though. I think she should let him have some say so, if he really hates Harmon, then atleast pick a middle name they can agree on.

C&K*s Mommie replied: I like it. Unique but not too different.

It would be ideal if she could choose one name, and he can choose the other.

CantWait replied: I actually really like both names.
