Re: BA DN name is...
My youngest sister was the same. She has four girls, and refused to say a word about what names were being considered and what was finally chosen until they were born. She said this was because she wanted to present the world with the baby, saying, "This is (Name)", rather than have the name floating around before anyone had met the baby, because then it's like the baby becomes the name, rather than bestowing a name upon the baby. If you can make sense of that. I don't know if everyone can.

It makes sense. I'm not really sure what their reason was. My brother told everyone right away not to ask. Anyone who asked would get their own name as an answer.
I like your sisters reasoning. I also think I'd rather decide for myself rather than everyone trying to sway me one way or another.

I always like when people don't share the baby's name before it's born because I like being surprised, lol. Same for gender!Of course, a lot of people who know me already know my favorite names... So I probably can't surprise them too much when the time comes
