Am in a dilemma!!
I've posted on here before about not being able to decide between our 2 final choice names for DC3.
We are undecided between Philippa (Pippa) and Alice
Most people voted for Alice on the thread I started!
I have to say that if I had to choose right now between the 2 names I'd probably go for Alice too. Just by the teeniest tiniest margin it is ahead of Philippa. Still love Philippa though.
DS1 is 5yo and is one of the reasons we found out the sex of DC3 and want to decide on the name. He has ASD and is finding it a bit harder to imagine the new baby as being his new baby sister. We thought that knowing its a girl and will be called 'X' might help.
Since coming to our short list of 2 names DS1 has taken an enormous shine to the name Philippa. He is absolutely determined thats what the babies name is!
I said to him yesterday that maybe it would be a good idea to have both names and call the baby 'Alice Philippa' to see if he would budge. He says 'no, I will call her Philippa Alice'
The fact that he loves the name SO much is making me think that maybe we should just go with it seeing as we cant decide between the two anyway.
Names would either be Alice Elizabeth or Philippa Sally (middle names are family names)

Would you let your 5 yo have final say over new baby's name?
