Weird baby name?

I haven't posted about it here yet but I'm currently 9 weeks pregnant and I'm really really hoping for a boy! Even before getting pregnant my boyfriend and I always imagined we'd have a boy first and then a girl. If we have a boy the name will be Ramesses and if it's a girl we picked out Evangeline. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the name Ramesses but every time I talk about the name with someone I get weird looks and I worry how it'll affect him growing up. I want him to know his name is special and has power roots and meaning but I still worry about how OTHERS will treat him because of it. What do you think?

... Read moreSince I'm already deep into my pregnancy journey, eagerly awaiting a little one, I've been exploring all sorts of things, from name ideas to fun predictions! Like many expecting parents, I couldn't resist trying out the famous Chinese Gender Predictor chart. I found a great one on 'What to Expect' – you know, the one where you plug in your lunar conception month and lunar age? For me, with my due date of August 25, 2025, and my birth date, it confidently predicted 'It's a Boy!' It was such a fun little confirmation, especially since my partner and I are really hoping for a son first. Of course, it's just for fun, but it definitely adds to the excitement! Beyond the charts, I’ve also been paying attention to all the old wives' tales about predicting a baby's gender. People swear by things like carrying high or low, cravings for salty vs. sweet, or even the baby’s heart rate. For me, I haven't had much morning sickness, and I've been craving all things savory, which some say are signs of a boy. It's fascinating how many little clues people look for! Speaking of early stages, my 8-week ultrasound at the Houston Pregnancy Help Center was such a magical moment. Seeing that tiny flutter on the screen just confirmed everything, and it’s incredible how much changes in such a short time. At that stage, it's mostly about seeing the gestational sac, yolk sac, and getting that first heartbeat, but it makes everything feel so real. It’s a normal and healthy uterus scan, which is always reassuring for any expectant parent. This whole journey has also made me think a lot about baby names, not just my top pick, Ramesses, but names in general. The 'hear me out names' trend really resonates with me because sometimes, the most unique names have the deepest meanings. It’s about finding something powerful and distinctive for your child, even if it raises a few eyebrows at first. I think it's important to choose a name you truly love and believe in, regardless of external opinions. For those of you just starting out on your conception journey, I've also stumbled upon some general advice. While there's no magic 'best sex position to conceive a baby' that guarantees results, many experts suggest positions that allow for deeper penetration and minimize sperm leakage, like missionary or woman-on-bottom. The main thing is to reduce stress, track ovulation, and just enjoy the process with your partner. Sometimes it takes time, but focusing on overall health and well-being can make a big difference. Every step of this journey, from trying to conceive to picking names and seeing that first ultrasound, is truly special.

Why does it matter what ANYbody else thinks...it shld NOT! That's what's wrong with the newer generation's🥰🫶🏻🤞, they worry too much about what other(unimportant ppl) will think! If you like/want your child to have that name, do it! Just teach them to be strong and not allow others' opinions to have any effect on the person they are!

It’s your baby please don’t do what I did and let everybody else’s opinion make you change the name of your baby I wanted very unique names but ended up giving my kids common names and I regret it and so do my kids they liked the names they were going to be named better than their names they have!! Go with your gut!!
