This is a very important subject that requires we give some Islamic consideration into account with regard to this affair.
One of the things that we can do is to ask learned people for advice with regards to the names that we should use. The sahabah (may Allah be pleased with all of them, Aameen). Would ask the Messenger of Allah (sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam) about what they should name their children, so it is a good thing to do as the sahabah did, you don't have to accept their recommendation.
When are you supposed to name the newborn? There is an opinion that it should be done on the day of birth, or the third day or the seventh day.
Who has the right to name the child? The advice of the people of knowledge is that it should be a discussion process, between the husband & wife. If push comes to shove, then the ultimate decision comes down to the father.
There are some extremely beneficial principles that we should be aware of as Abu Muadh Taqweem Aslam (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) mentions in this extremely beneficial audio that has been extracted from a lecture that was delivered at the Salafi Publications - Winter Conference 2019.
Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever invites to guidance will be rewarded like those who follow him in the guidance are rewarded, and that will not decrease the reward of those who have followed him." [Collected by Imām Muslim]
