number baby names, time and date

[happywheezer]

Given the Beckham's have a new little girl called Harper Seven which in my opinion could have been so much worse and quite conservative, would you give your baby a special number name?

I just had a baby and he was born on 11.05.11 at 11.11am. I joked to the consultant that I should have called him eleven! Now the Beckham's have done it.

Also, I have a boy born on the 4th july. I should have called him Sam or George etc.

DO any of you have children born on special days or times? Is eleven better than seven?!

We have family friends who have had a series of ginger toms over 40 years or more. The 7th was called Septimus, known as Mouse.

I also know of a family with 11 children, of which the 10th is called Decca.

We saw our DD2 in her first dating scan at 8.43 on the 8/8/2008.I joked if it was a girl we should call her Octavia or something Chinese as it's a lucky number in that part of the world.

Not born on special days or at special times (apart from it being their birthdays! )but both my dds have a first name that relates to their month of birth and a middle name with a connection to the day they were born on - but without it being blatant, like just calling them May Tuesday for example!

Btw op - dd2 was due on 4th July but was 3 weeks early!
