Anyone else keeping their baby's name a secret??

I'm so Inlove with my baby's girl name, I'm trying to keep it on the DL since daddy always wants to change it I really hope this one is the one because I'm tired of just saying my babygirl or baby "G" (that's what her name will start with)
She's had about 5 different names already my poor baby lol :)

Kept my girls name a secret - I told no-one till I was in Labour (only told my mum then as I didn't want to say a different name if I was drugged up! Lol) she always was and perfectly is 'willow-cassie' :-) I'm now 31+2 with a baby boy and again I'll tell no-one, till I'm in Labour. Don't regret it at all x

My family didnt like the names I chose at first (first and middle name) but I told them why we had chosen the names and that they were important to us n now they always refer to my bump by his name, so they have clearly accepted it. X

We had a name chose that everyone knew and one of my 'friends' named her daughter the exact name, spelling wise as well. So my husband & I changed it and havent told anyone but his mom & mine.

^^^That's another reason why I'm keeping it a secret. I'm especially not putting it on my Facebook because I have at least 4 different friends on there who are pregnant and having girls and I don't want them to steal the name I picked. I know I don't own the name but since they are people I know I don't want their babies to have the same name as mine lol

I am keeping my baby names a secret. . Not Cuz i don't think people would like them but more so Cuz I don't want people I know to steal them lol.  My oldest sister had a name for her first baby picked out..she made the mistake of telling her friends and one of her good friends had her baby girl before my sister and used the name my sister wanted.. so I am scared of that.

I wish I would have kept it a secret. I was scared to say this name because I loved it so much and didnt want to hear that someone didnt like it, but everyone i have told also loves it, i still wish i kept it a secret tho because it seems like its getting overused already... if that makes any sense

Yeah our baby's name changed a bunch. And our family doesn't like the name we picked but we don't care. But I get keeping it a secret if you think it may change.

I'm keeping her name choices a secret for the most part. I don't want anybody's opinions to change my mind. But so far she gone from 10 possible names down to 3. We just call her baby bean or the baby right now
