So we have 99% decided on a boys name but would like to have a girls name ready.... Just in case ( we don't know the gender )
Opinions please....

Kitty Willow
Kitty Bluebell
Kitty Tallulah
Bella Willow
Tallulah Nell

Or any other suggestions in a similar vein....

Kitty Tallulah is lovely as is Tallulah Nell.....what have you decided on for a boy......sorry I'm so nosey!

My neice is a kitty and I love it!

I would personally pick kitty bluebell, its gorgeous and the choice of nicknames you can have just from that if she decided she didn't like hers or fancied a change

Ohh and kitty willow that's lovely too!

The only one I'm not so keen on is Bella Willow, I really like the rest. Would Tallulah get shortened? If so, to what? I think I prefer Kitty as a first name.

Kitty Nell

Favourite of your choices: Kitty Willow
Least favourite: Bella Willow too many Ls and different vowels, sorry.

Guessing Tallulah would become Tally?

I like Tallulah Nell.
Not keen on Kitty at all, prefer it as a nn for something a bit smarter.
I know 3 Tallulahs (2 age 9/10 and one adult), one is Tallulah all the time and the other two are nn Lula

Thanks yfronts.... Love Kitty Nell why didn't I think of that!

Kitty Willow -- as mentioned on another thread - 'kitty' ---> 'pussy' [pussy willow is too close to Kitty Willow]
Kitty Bluebell -- nice, flows well, and because the pussy bit wouldn't occur to people as readily as it would with Kitty Willow
Kitty Tallulah -- nice. Tallulah is a striking name with a lot of pizazz.
Bella Willow -- too much of the letter L
Tallulah Nell -- again a lot of the letter L and I think it has a 'Calamity Jane' sort of feel to it too. Sort of a wild west vibe.

I would choose Kitty Bluebell or Kitty Tallulah.

Kitty nell.

Kitty Nell sounds like kitten 'ell. Kitten hell?

I adore Tabitha nn Kitty and I would fall over in a dead swoon if I met a Kitty Bluebell.

Come on bfp!!

Thanks for all the opinions think it'll be definitely between Kitty Tallulah or Kitty Bluebell.

Ps... What does bfp mean??!

Kitty Bluebell is very sweet.
Kitty is an ace name

Kitty Bluebell

BFP is "big fat positive [pregnancy test]" so what I meant was "that is such an inspiringly lovely name that my desire to be pregnant is yet again increased".

Thank you... What a lovely thing to say (grinning from ear to ear ).

i like kitty nell.

I think if i have a DD she will be called kitty. my nan was a kathleen and her NN was kitty

Just come back to see if you had decided, kitty bluebell has stuck in my head so much and I'm not even allowed it as my niece won't be happy

So so gorgeous! Extremely jealous!

Thank you locketjuice ) I don't know the gender, but I want to be prepared just incase!!

I know a kitty bluebell age 2 she is just gorgeous!

I wouldn't use Kitty personally-as someone who suffered from the 'pussy' connotations from twats for years particularly as a shy teenager.

spud - is that "don't use Kitty at all" or "give her a fallback name like Catherine so she can use a different nickname if necessary" ?

I just wouldn't give a daughter that name cos stupid, infantile males think it's hilarious to call u pussy if your name is kitty. That was my experience.

Spudmurphy - can u confirm that your name is Kitty? Is this the name on your birth certificate?
