This is understandable, but is bound to cause problems if one is chosen above the other. Perhaps you should bring up to your cousin that baptism in a Christian faith only needs to be done once and, to my knowledge, applies to all Christian denominations (Matthew 28:19 -- forgot to mention that earlier).

When I have children of my own, I will likely choose a path that does not place certain religions as more important or valid than any others (depending on the religious inclinations of my potential wife). I don't want to influence my child whatsoever in the process of choosing a religion, or, otherwise, educate them about a variety of viewpoints -- both pros, and cons -- and let them come to a conclusion.
