I was very sick before falling pregnant and an amazing doctor saved my life and my fertility.
Baby is due in a few months and DH and I have been discussing using the doctor's name as a middle name (a second middle name - so the 'Charlie' in Alfred Bertie Charlie Smith (not the real names!!). We like the name as a name, and we also thought it would be a good way to honour the doctor/remind us of our blessings.
Is this a bad idea? Will it just always remind me of a very difficult time? Or is it just weird? The doctor will know the baby's name (since we'll obviously let the doctor know when the baby's born) so might realise what we've done, but it's not a 'weird' name so it could also have just been a name we've always liked. Am worried the doctor will think us odd (or just plain sucky!!).
Any views? Once it's done, it's done and I don't want to always regret it either way...
