We are really stuggling to come up with a name for DC4 due soon so for inspiration could people post their top ten names at the moment? Thanks!

Why would anyone ignore Hulabula any more than anyone else? Do you mean Readinginbed, who Hula responded to?

Quite a few people have said Ivy, which is one of my real favourites. is it really quite popular now? I don't remember it featuring on recent top 100 lists- wondered if it's suddenly gained in popularity this year?

It's ok, ellesbabe .

Some lovely names on here - great source of inspiration. Let's all be a little braver and use some of these lovely, underused names!

Keep seeing Seth on the boys list. This was my absolute favourite name throughout pregnancy. DP talked me out of it - now seeing it on so many peoples lists I am wistful. A great name.

Agree Hulabula!

Some great names here. Giving me inspiration if I ever have a second DS.
