My DD did name my DS

I found out the sex and when I got home, I excitedly said to her "do you want to know whether its a girl or a boy?"

she retorted "I already know. Its a boy and he's going to be called X"

DH and i sniggered and then thought "actually, I like X" and it stuck!

Well so far DS's (16mo) favourite names seem to be "Jorj" and "Gob-ty"
Lol at BOB the baby!

DD1's suggestion was Wabo-Abo (we're assuming about the hyphen and spelling as she was only 14 months when we asked her but she repeated it 3 times so it was a definite suggestion).

DC2 will be Superwhy or just Baby. but it's definitly a boy according to DS (or actually this morning it was a boy AND a girl)

Dumper.
As our surname begins with a D it would have been quite .... cute?
DS1 actually did name DD though. He was 10 by then so not so strange

DH's brothers chose his name. He was going to be called Christopher but BILs persuaded MIL to call him what he's called now

(and it's a lovely name)

My dd1 has actually got quite good taste in baby names, despite being only four. She's chosen 'Emily' for a girl, which I like but we're not choosing

LOL it would be another Bob or Wendy here.

DS1 wasnted DC2 to be Jamie - for a boy or a girl. Was never going to happen, as DS1 is James. Funnily enough, DS2 now pretends he's called Jamie.

Portland (after DS1's favourite bear)

this is quite cute, but not a patch on Bob the Baby
