Naming
Hello everybody,
I wanted to ask a very naive and maybe silly question. I have recently started looking into domestic adoption so I really don't know how this works.
When you adopt a child, can you name them?
I understand adopting an older child is a different story.
But what if you're adopting a newborn, does the birthmom name the child or do you get the chance?
(I tried doing a search and it lead me to the other "naming/Titles" thread posted yesterday that is a completely different subject.. But very educational! And a bit scary.)
Thanks Everybody,
Myrna
