I say unless you are married or planning on marrying that man, give him your last name. A guy can't just "play dad", besides you're doing all the hard work! And if you do end up being together...or meeting someone else....last names can be changed.

I have had my heart set on Jeremiah Marlis Battiest. And he wants Raiden or some mortal kombat characters name picked out, I told him no from the getgo! But if i decide to let his father participate in the naming we decided Louis for a middel name and his last name Williams. But Im not sure what I want to do. Im already 5 months and have done everything on my own so far. He's nice enough to show up to baby appointments but thats it. He already has another child with another girl...and as of right now he's all about his daughter. And Im afraid he's going to play favortism once our son gets here. And I'm also afraid what if i do give our son his last name and he does run off and dont help? He hasnt helped from the getgo anyways...why should he get a say so in the name, right?

As far as the guy goes my sons dad decided to b a jerk like that hasn't bought anything for Dylan or done anything to show he has any interest in him whatsoever he wanted to name him James Russell Jenkins but since he chose to act the way he did he is signing his rights off and I've decided to name him Dylan Scott and give him my last name instead so if u think its better to leave then do it maybe he won't want responsiblity and will walk away like my kiddos father...I'm glad he chose to go it just means i get my son to myself :) i love him more than anything in the world and i will be the best mommy i can possibly be and i know he has more than enough male role models in his life he has two uncles and a papa who love him very much nd he has a nana who is already very in love with the idea of having a grandson so he is set with a loving family :)
