StrandedBear Thu 10-Nov-11 16:49:34

Martha.
Can't use it as already have a DS called Arthur.

Hmm. Girls are harder, because there are so many lovely ones!
Dd's are Iris and Pearl.
Apart from that I would say Beryl or Priscilla.

Caroline or Verity. Can't choose between them.

Harper - loved it so much and wanted to use it if we ever had a DD, but then a certain celeb couple used it for their DD...

Charlotte

My dd's names

Elizabeth
Juliet
Christina

I find boys names way easyer than girls. If we have another girl I have no idea what to call her as it took us long enough with dd3!! DD 1 and 2 were easy as i loved the names from a child.

Evie

I know very popular these days but i love it grin

MsTimTam Thu 10-Nov-11 19:33:48

My fave name ever is Blythe but dh was having none of it (and don't know if I'd brave enough esp with a surname most people struggle with).

DDs are Lucy & Ella

Xanthe

Kayano Thu 10-Nov-11 19:59:17

Allenby.

Everyone hates it and it has been vetoed but I secretly love it

I dont even know if it is real lol

Psammead Thu 10-Nov-11 21:10:41

Allenby is quite lovely smile

Mine would be Annabel or Lucy (DD's name)

MuddlingThroughItAll Thu 10-Nov-11 21:23:05

Hero, I absolutely love it but haven't had a chance to use it sad

iarebaboon I also love Calypso!

Have 2 DS's so no use for these - yet!
Aila - but have an Alasdair and not sure the two would work together.

Alice - Its so pretty.

SquigglePigs Thu 10-Nov-11 21:50:58

Probably Francesca, but I don't like any of the abbreviations so I won't use it. Other close runner is Kathryn but it's DMILs name, so would be a bit weird.

Eleanor

PootlePosyPumpkin Thu 10-Nov-11 21:53:39

Poppy (DD) or Delphi (which I have only discovered recently but really love).

Plonker Thu 10-Nov-11 21:53:49

Elizabeth
