How did you name your child?
We're in the process of adopting our 20-month-old fd who has been in our home since the age of 10 days. The day we brought her home we decided on what we would name her if we got to adopt. We nick-named her then, and have never called her by her given name. When her bfather agreed to relinquish he asked if we would keep her name (knowing we called her something different). We told him that we would consider giving it to her as a second-middle name. The problem is that it is a very unusual name and I just really don't care for it at all. Just wondering if others had kept a name to honor their children's heritage, and what your thoughts are on this.
Thanks.
