And said, "you have seven seconds to name this child," what would your off-the-top-of-my-head response be? (Besides, obviously, wondering who this loon passing a baby around is.)

Today, Helena.

But my 'go to' name is always Martha. So maybe Martha.

Is it for me? If so, Mara. Or Caitlin.

If not, Katya, which I love but doesn't go with my surname.

Thankyou headfairy we love it :)

Also Eliza, Meredith and Astrid were all names on our list for dd.

weegiemum · 21/02/2013 15:43

No-one ever going to do that to me again, but my girls were Katherine and Rachel within seconds.

I also love Charis, Hope, Louise/a and Elaine.

ShhhhhGoBackToSleep · 21/02/2013 15:42

Kitty

PrincessOfChina · 21/02/2013 15:42

Harper. DP wouldn't allow it though. In fact, he wouldn't allow it before the Beckham's used it and definitely wouldn't allow it afterwards.

So we'd go with Seren, which I seriously love Smile

lambbone · 21/02/2013 15:41

Meredith

Minty82 · 21/02/2013 15:41

Susannah, at the moment. Which wasn't on the list at all when I was expecting DD less than a year ago, so we'll see if it's in the running if and when DC2 happens...

almapudden · 21/02/2013 15:41

Theodora

That's a surprise, it's not even on my list! Just popped into my head :)

HeadFairy · 21/02/2013 15:41

5madthings, Merryn is a lovely name! Sooo pretty :o
