Hi everyone! I'm currently pregnant with our first baby and hubby and I can't agree on a girl name. He likes Erin and I am desperate for the baby to be called Fern. If its a girl the middle name will be Fiona (after my sis) so looking for any girly shortish names that would suit middle name Fiona. Surname begins with R, alliteration name suggestions welcome!!
Thankyou for any suggestions in advance!! Xx

I think you definitely need something with two or three syllables. And not ending with the letter a.

Meredith? Margaret?

Yeah not ending in an a is a good call. I like Margaret but hubby had an old crow of an aunty with that name! It's amazing how bullies/ relatives can put you off nice names! X

Weirdly this has been going around in my head while absent mindedly attending a birthday party this evening. How about Jaime? Have only ever met one, and she was lovely.

Convince your DH that Fern is a brilliant name. I love it!

Is it pronounced Jamie? If so I love the spelling. I do like unisex names :) on the list! Thankyou!! X

OMG! I might be naming a baby! DH wanted DD to be Lois but in 1998 I was stuck on that name beginning with 'O' which became horrendously popular 5 years later.

Hubby also loves Lois! Thankyou! As one of 5 Lynseys don't want baby to have loads of the same name in their class at school!
Lois Fiona Rainey ;) Awwwwww x
