it's sweet but all I can see is that big moon in "the Bear in the Big Blue House" Grin

She stole my baby name! Not that I'm even pregnant or anything...... hope there isn't a massive leap in poularity now, although saying that she's not very tabloidy is she and I can't think what her other kids are called so hopefully people will forget this by the time I eventually have a dd.....

AlfieandAnnieRose · 04/08/2013 15:57

She is Spanish and apparently it's a Spanish name so I think it's a great choice.
I'm surprised she announced the name so soon, she didn't reveal her son's name for a long while after he was born.

I like it, I love both of them Smile . But their son is called Leo, even with the different pronunciations of the names, I still think they're a bit samey.

Love the moonlight boat trip comment haha. That's as good as Half past seven Beckham!

DameEdnasBridesmaid · 02/08/2013 22:15

DS says she would get call 'Lunatic'. That's what folks are like round 'ere.

MimsyBorogroves · 02/08/2013 22:15

I like it.

RemoteControlledChaos · 02/08/2013 22:13

I want Luna for dd (due Nov) but dh has vetoed it ("like the moon and stuff?! No way"). Hmph.

Dani Filth's (from Cradle of Filth) daughter is called Luna...

SuzySheepSmellsNice · 02/08/2013 22:09

Luna means Moon Superene

SuzySheepSmellsNice · 02/08/2013 22:08

Yes Luna Bardem Cruz... And if she only uses one surname, it'll be Bardem... Luna Cruz is funny though

Thurlow · 02/08/2013 22:07

Luna Cruz! Ha! I hadn't thought of it that way. That's absolutely hilarious.

UpTheFRIGGinDuff · 02/08/2013 22:06

I like Luna

But Luna Cruz sounds like a moonlight boat trip...

Superene · 02/08/2013 22:05

Luna? Is it short for lunatic?
Terrible

Thurlow · 02/08/2013 21:50

So does that make her Luna Bardem Cruz?

Sorry to rant, its something I've explained a lot (like the pronunciation of Paella!), all part and parcel of the Spanish degree... and me being a massive pedant!

I think Luna is a very nice name and Cruz (as in Beckham) is a girl's name

squoosh · 02/08/2013 21:46

I don't like Luna although it seems quite trendy these days. I feel it should be followed by an exclamation mark, Luna!.

mystaplerisevil · 02/08/2013 21:41

like doing a moonie

Alisvolatpropiis · 02/08/2013 21:40

suzy

Oh I see! Smile

I have been misinformed by an Internet article. That'll explain why I'd never heard about it before - because the article was inaccurate!

SuzySheepSmellsNice · 02/08/2013 21:40

Eg Carlos González Ruiz and Itzel Martínez Cervantes have a baby called Gabriel, his full name would be Gabriel González Martínez...

Bowlersarm · 02/08/2013 21:37

Frank lampard has a Luna - born in 2005?

SuzySheepSmellsNice · 02/08/2013 21:36

No Alis, they take both surnames... First surname is the father's first surname, Second surname is the mother's first surname... Easy!
