So, it's early days (10weeks) but I'm already flicking through baby name books. We have a Heather and an Alexander nn Alex. We are not going to find out the sex.

Girls names I like are
Clara
Maeve
Hazel

And have absolutely NO ideas for a boy. Our surname starts with a P and has two syllables. Any and all thoughts welcome

My aunt has a donkey called Dominic so that's out Grin

I also like Annabel for a girl, but worry about the baby Annabel thing..

Annable is lovely :) There's nothing wrong with baby Annabel, it's just a doll, not some negative connotation you'd want to avoid. And she won't be a baby for the majority of her life.

Annabel not Annable
