Mother's initial to son

Hi,

I have son of 8 months and want to give him my initials. i.e my name is Angel .D and my husbands is Jack .A.

I want to name my son 'Pram.D'. Is this legal? Will there be any problems in future if he gets my initial. Kindly advise. Is there any law which opposes a child getting his mother's initials?

It will invite difficulties in futue since every time Father name tobe mentioned for identity.

1. No. Legally there is no bar,

 

2. However, title is universally used for identifying the paternal lineage,

 

3. Your such step may be questioned by your own son when he grows up with the logic that infant child is not the sole property of mother to arbitrarily try unusal things for self satisfaction, which may affet him later on.

There is no restriction or  bar to use mother's name as initial by the child. Even both the parents names' can be used as initials by the child.  The season for parental lineage is all gone, a child can be recognized by his mother's name too.
