I'm after having so many threads mulling over baby names. We were starting to get really stressed with the whole process as nothing seemed "right" for us.

But we have finally decided......ahem.....drumroll please......

Jemima Birdie Primrose

Ezra Angelo Memphis

These are to go with ds Eli. Oh and the middle names have sentimental meaning for us for various reasons I won't bore you with.

I think I can relax and step away from the baby name threads now...".wrings hands anxiously"

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Love Primrose.

Marnierose · 24/07/2014 09:34

Lovely names and very organised for 16 weeks. I'm due now and still not had the name convo ! Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy op. It goes so quickly.

weatherall · 24/07/2014 09:28

Jem is a cool nn for a girl.

ViviPru · 24/07/2014 09:26

Who knows what the child will think of Birdie or Memphis? Perhaps they will enjoy trotting out the backstory of the person or occasion that inspired their unusual name, perhaps they will pretend it doesn't exist. The whole point of middle names is for sentimental flights of fancy IMO.

Onesleeptillwembley · 24/07/2014 09:18

Bet your child will not thank you for Birdie or Memphis. Your other names are ok, is it pregnancy hormones?

Amy106 oh gosh we have ages to wait, I'm 16 weeks. But we have been ttc for 3 yrs so it feels like we have had forever to mull over names.

Lovely names...it must be a relief to have all that decided. Now you just have to wait for your little one to arrive. Do you have long to wait?

ACM88 luckily my dh has pretty much the same taste in names as I do there were only a few batshitcrazy names he had to put his foot down over

Thanks for the lovely comments, we are super excited to have finally settled on names.

They're great, I like Jemima, Ezra and Angelo especially. Congrats

Gingerjv · 20/07/2014 13:05

Like Ezra a lot! All of the other names are not my fav one)

carben · 20/07/2014 09:42

Well the Birdie Song was a hit in 1981 and Angelo in 1977. Were they the no 1 records when you and DH were born ?

sonlypuppyfat · 20/07/2014 08:56

Not so struck on the middle names.

lp2014 · 20/07/2014 08:53

Love Primrose! Beautiful. Congratulations! Xx

Rhubarbgarden · 20/07/2014 08:04

I love Primrose.

mathanxiety · 20/07/2014 05:58

She didn't post looking for opinions. She had already done that and this is a follow up. Nothing wrong with that. Inquiring minds sometimes like to know these things..

catinbootz · 20/07/2014 04:59

Well surely the point you decide on names is the point you stop posting in baby names for opinions.

And no, I won't 'FO' on a public forum

mathanxiety · 20/07/2014 02:34

Great names. Good luck!

(I love Birdie -- have an aunt of the name).

TheWomanTheyCallJayne · 19/07/2014 22:13

Catinbootz- the point when someone decides the names they'll use is the point when you stop making negative comments about them surely

Only1scoop · 19/07/2014 22:12

Soz just read your last post and read its Birdie....

Only1scoop · 19/07/2014 22:11

Is it Bridie or Birdie?

DitzyDonkey · 19/07/2014 22:09

catinbootz odfod I did say that the middle names have sentimental meaning, Birdie is after someone extremely close to me who died recently. Lol....boak!
