We're still seeking inspiration. Can you give me your absolute favourite girls name - just one - never min whether it goes with siblings or surname or is too posh or dh doesn't like it. I'd just love to know everyone's favourite. Maybe we'll be inspired.

My favourite girls name is Harriet. Has been since I was first pregnant with ds1 over 24 years ago.

Sadly never got to use it on a dd, only had boys although I did call it a hamster once Wink

I also love Seraphina, Leonora, Cordelia, Ottilie, Francesca.

I love Ruby - it was my gran's name, but unfortunately it doesn't go with our surname so DD is Elizabeth (which, of course, I also love).

If only my DH husband would agree with us LaJardin. I think we're going to have a Lydia instead Smile

Pleasenomorepeppa · 19/09/2012 13:44

Bradbourne - that occured to me too after I pressed post Grin Some days she is a bit of a Ghoulia to be fair.
