This happened to me. I named her Abigail Scarlett :) Coincidently, she is my baby!

But we had 4 runner ups-Clara, Imogen, Zoe and Lily.

Phoebe or Penelope but not both as she wouldn't want to be known as pee pee.

It took DH a lot longer than 7 s to argue me out of that, I love it, but it does not appear anywhere in DD's name.
