Dealing with ppl who have comments on my baby name

Hubs and I really like the name Forest (to us, it means free spirited) for our baby boy. But our parents and in laws are against it. Saying that its too american, not nice, etc. Even our friends were like “really meh, you want to name him that”. Not going to lie… I was quite annoyed and affected by their comments. Should I change baby names or stick with the one we prefer 😮‍💨

True is your baby you have a say to give whatever name. However, you might want to reconsider if this name will cause any teasing to the kid when he grow up. Think of this aspect too. 🙂
