I'm new here and can see there are a lot of strong opinions regarding baby names. What are your children called and how old are they? (only if you're willing to share of course)

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Sorry YoSaffBridge, didn't get back to the thread yesterday, Donnchadh is pronounced (sort of) Dunaka, the 'O' is very short.

The spelling is old, nawadays the final dh is often not used.

burley congrats! we almost went for Lydia Grace, but it was a newcomer for me, so went with the "old flame"!Smile

I am properly outing myself here but here goes :

Joshua David (11) - he would have been Elizabeth Grace (which was then 1st choice for all others)
Samuel Aaron (9) - 2nd girl choice Emma Cecilia (as godmother's Cecilia)
Michael Jacob (8)
Noah Matthew (6)
Isaac Benjamin (2) - 2nd girl choice was Zoe Izabella
Elizabeth Grace (9 months) - she would have been Elijah Thomas (Thomas is oldest cousin and godfather)

love names like Jethro, Jonathan, Jesse, Stephanie, Sebastian, Marina, Malachi, Natalie, Nathan, Issachar, Emmanuel, Esther etc - but don't want to choose same initials again
Jonah - love it, but is very similar to Noah

some names we did like for a boy this time were Abraham, Benedict, Dominic

any future children will be named with difficulty for above reasons plus they have 18 cousins and 6 2nd cousins with same surname and first names such as Reuben, Hannah, Miriam, Raphael, Sophia,Daniel, and my favourite name Anna

(if you recognize me, sussh pls!)

Some lovely names on this thread.

Sl1nkyMalinki · 14/01/2013 22:28

I have Amalie Grace (6.5) and Edward Davis (2.5), known as Teddy.

Amalie was named when I was 10 wks pg as I was so convinced I was having a girl!

Number three if i was that way inclined would be Sylvia Loveday, or Jude Andrew. But I'm not having more!
