Canada?

[CoddledAsAMommet]

Me: what do you think we should call your new baby sister?
DS (9): (unhesitatingly) Canada.
Me: why???
DS: because she'll never get teased; nearly EVERYONE likes Canada.

?????!!!!?????

So what would your DCs call their new sibling given half a chance?

[WowserBooooooooooooser]

Well that's true. Who doesn't like Canada?

What about calling her Ice Cream?

[moxon]

Oh Canada oh Canada!

[curiousgeorgie]

My DD wanted to call her little sister Elsa Power Factor..

(Pre Frozen amazingly!)

[GilbertBlytheWouldGetBit]

DD wanted to call her new baby brother "BEEF MELON"

[squoosh]

I'd pick North Korea. Yes it's a bit divisive but it would make more of an impact than dull old Canada.

[GilbertBlytheWouldGetBit]

People would think you were a fan of Kanye West though. What about Grand Canyon? I think that's a pretty taunt-proof name right there.

[moxon]

Beef Melon is just grand. Prime Minister material.

[squoosh]

Beef Melon is a good bold name. Round and meaty, like many babies.

[MooseBeTimeForSnow]

As the land I inhabit, I can say that Canada is not dull!

There was a family a while ago in my local paper where the mum had got pregnant unexpectedly. She had older children and asked the children what they thought and what the baby should be called. In true teenager style they replied 'cool'. So Cool it is. I think he must be about 10 now.

[squoosh]

'Dull' was the wrong word. I should have said 'too stable'.

[Kittykatmacbill]

My DA (aged under 2) wanted to call my DM 'Bum', but was convinced that 'Bomb' would be more suitable...

[darlingfascistbullyboy]

dc1 (then 11yo) wanted to call dc4 Asterix because she thought it would be funny She was the first to suggest the name we would end up using for dc3 though (Penelope).

[bexibean]

A girl would be CeeCee and a boy Fark according to our three year old. Who is sure it's a boy. Fark is the word that Daddy says when all the Rice Krispies end up on the floor.

[bexibean]

Anyone else think Asterix could be the new Atticus?

[scarevola]

Canada would have siblings Cinnamon and Asa/Acer/Maple?

[fishfingerSarnies]

My dd so far has suggested; her own name, Monkey, our dogs name and baby. Not that imaginative.

[stargirl1701]

DD1 wanted to call DD2 Baby Banana.

[SpookyGoingsOnOnTheLandscape]

Superbaby was the name that the DCs picked out for a younger sibling.

[ScreamingSmegs]

DD1 wanted to call DD2 Rabbit. She has lots of bunny toys. Every single one of them is called Rabbit.

She swore we wouldn't get confused but we didn't believe her.

[TheCheeseAlarm]

DS1 wanted to call DS2 Manchester or Risotto. He suggested Robert for a friend's DD.

[SnoringNorma]

My niece wanted to call her new baby Asda

[HerRoyalNotness]

DS1 wanted to call his baby sister, Sparkle! DS2 more sensibly, Lucy, which we almost went with

[HerRoyalNotness]

Now I think of it ,DS2 did move on to Baby Butt butt which has a certain charm

[mathanxiety]

DD1 suggested Whoopi for DS, Harlem for DD2, and she and DS came up with Pom Pom for DD3.
