Well, not quite the last minute but still only a month to go... I know it means we have lots of time but I felt happy to have the name nailed.
We had decided on Holly Clementine.
But! My silly DH mentioned Holly to someone, and they said "But it has no meaning behind the name." Then he started thinking...
Now he wants to go with Jemima, which he thinks is cute shortened to Mimi and also means "Dove" in Hebrew.
Of course that doesnt go with our middle name of Clementine, but we did have a fall back middle name of Rose, which works (I know EVERYONE uses Rose, but it is my grandmothers name and she's really old and sick and it would make her happy)
So now I like: Holly Clementine
and he likes: Jemima Rose
Are we supposed to wait until she is born and see what she "looks like" to figure it out? I've always thought this was a bit daft as babies rarely look the same even two weeks later.
Sigh... any thoughts gratefully received
