I am so stuck. I have whittled my short list down to two names. I live both of them for different reasons. How do I choose?
I don't believe in 'waiting to see what the baby looks like', as I firmly believe all babies become their names.
I have two months left to decide but I want to decide ASAP as it will help me bond. I'm awake at night trying to decide, I say both names out loud for a week at a time etc and have been doing this for weeks now but am not any nearer reaching a decision.
What do others in this situation do?

Wait and see what feels right when she's born. If you love both of them I don't think you need to worry about hormones/crazy decisions etc.
Otherwise;
flip a coin
let DC1 choose
write them on pieces of paper and pick out of a hat
put it to the vote and let mumsnet choose
name her both e.g. Milly Molly Mandy
