Fairly new to MN so go easy on me
First a bit of backstory to put this in context, last year me and my DP of 4 years went through a bit of a rocky patch due to his "friendship" with a young girl at work. At first I was suspicious of their "friendship" due to her being 18 at the time (DP was 23) and I thought it was unusual for a guy of his age to want to hang round with girls her age, but then came the excessive facebook messages and texts, and I found out through mutual friends that she would often spend entire weekends at his house (I was living away at uni at the time), but he would always maintain that they were just friends and she was "like a little sister" to him and he was only "looking out for her". After around 8 months of this, me and DP moved away because of his job and as far as I know their contact stopped.
However, a few months ago DP discovered that this girl had passed away in a car accident and was visibly upset for weeks.
Since then, I fell pregnant and yesterday at my 18wk scan we discovered we're having a girl, and DP is determined that we name our daughter after his late girl "friend".
It's caused endless arguments between me and DP and the stress and the tension is beginning to get me down. What can I do/say that could make him change his mind??
