what about Isla

[pinchmeimustbedreaming]

i can only think of girls names and love Isla husbands not too sure.

[girlsyearapart]

Same here I really really like Isla but DH doesn't. It's lovely (unless your surname is Dogs or Sheppey or Wight..)

What does he prefer?

[weegiemum]

I love it. We almost used it (but went for naming after a family member instead)

[kneedeepinthedirtylaundry]

It's a beautiful name, and also the title of a beautiful album by the brilliant Portico Quartet.

[pinchmeimustbedreaming]

he really likes amber which is nice but its quite popular round here. i like more unusual names. our son is logan

[girlsyearapart]

Much prefer isla to Amber fwiw. Wait until you're in labour it will be hard for him to deny you!

[pinchmeimustbedreaming]

thats brilliant!!! we both decided on logan but his middle name is hid dads middle name so think its my turn now lol

[girlsyearapart]

I am pg with dc3 and if it is a boy it will have my dads name as middle name as it will have dh's dad's surname iyswim..

I can win everytime on that premise!

[dizzycringles]

Isla lovely but very popular here in Scotland if that bothers you at all?

my cousin's SIL is about to get married in Feb, her name is Isla and her fiance is Mr White - just a though

otherwise I know 2 and all three of them are lovely girls

Amber - not so much to my taste as I know a horse and a dog as well as one wee girl called this

[Hopefully]

My middle name is Islay, after the scottish island (famous for whisky). Any chance of tempting him with the alcohol connection!?

[poinsettydawg]

Isla's nice but you have to agree, don;t you

[scottishmummy]

really like that name

[lou031205]

DD3 is an 8 month old 'Isla'

[SmacOnTheLipsUnderTheMistletoe]

I really like it

[SmacOnTheLipsUnderTheMistletoe]

I also like Ailsa

[Ondine]

I like it, it was at #41 last year so not even as popular as I thought.

I still don't think everyone knows it's not pronouced Iz-la so might have to correct a few times but v. nice name imo.

[pinchmeimustbedreaming]

no luck with the alcahol connection he barely drinks and to be honest......stella!!! really i dont fancy it at all. its not the only name i like. not even pregnant yet but ttc and im bound to have another son just because i cant find a name i like
