Dh and I are really stuck for names, we have a ds named Hamish (we are scottish but just liked the name). We don't know if this lo will be a boy or girl.
I love the name MIa but our surname begins with m and it sounds daft.
The only other name we have is Zara, but I don't love it.
names where the first name's first letter and the surname's first letter are the same are very special! i wish i could do that for my children but there are no T names i like...
mia mitchell is beautiful. i find i know alot of successfull people with same inital names like Elis Elias, John Johnson, Sydney Suissa, i love all of these names. think of some famous or successfull people (not necesarily celebs) and you will find some same initial names.
just off the top of my head Janet Jackson, Lindsay Lohan, Lucy Liu and not celebs Woodrow Wilson, Pablo Picasso...i don't know there must be many more....
Hi Katyjo and G43 . Mia and Benjamin are both lovely names. We are still without a baby name although we are now focusing on a list of names popular in the 1870s, which seems to be our era!
Someone menioned my top 2 girls' names: Thea and Clara. I LOVE them but they don't sound good with our surname.
why don't you wait until the baby's born and see what he/she looks like? I had no idea when it came to naming my girls, Amy was 12 hours without a name until it came to me when i'd had a real good study of her, and Ella was nameless for 2 days (i'd decided after half a day, but DH thought it wasn't a real name[shrugs shoulders])
Hi rolf I guess us June ladies must be lurking the baby name threads! Haven't made it back to 1870 yet, but certainly 1900 are def coming back ie eva, grace etc
I am hoping that will work jamila but worried that baby might be nameless for weeks! Mind you dh might be more open to my choices if I have just given birth to his child!
Me too!cheesesarnie dh said he didn't like noah, but if worse comes to worse I will play the hormonal post birth card!!
I loved freya when pregnant with ds but told my mum and she said 'that lovely frah' and it really put me off, if her own gren can't pronounce it what hope have others got.
