boy's name - Toby

Hi mummies, I need your advice. I'm planning to name my baby boy: Toby. But my husband and colleagues told me that it sounds cute when he's still a child but he might grow up to hate this name? They said "imagine people calling him Toby at 30, 40, 50 years old?" I really do like this name though. I'm a Christian and Toby means "God is good" I'm in dilemma right now, should i forsake this name? Or dont put it in his birth cert but still call him Toby?

As long as you and hubby love the name, your son will be used to it whether he is 10, 20 or 50.... where got people say my name is weird after using it for so long... he don’t like, he still has Chinese name? You can also don’t put on birth certificate if u wish. I refuse to tell people what name we chose for our baby cause there are many opinions but only yours and hubby’s matter.
