My mother in law has literally just stopped ridiculing my grandson hunters name,, I said you can't talk, you called your son Lloyd
I personally dont think you should say you hate the name to the parent before the child is even born, its really none of your business. Age old advice, if you cant say something nice, dont say anything at all.
