Hi everyone,
My husband and I have just found out that baby number 2 (EDD June 26th) is going to be a little girl and have made a shortlist of names that we like.
Just thought I'd see what others think as we aren't sharing our choices with family/friends and my hubby and I have different favourites (although we do both like both names).
So my favourite is Amelia (which we would eventually shorten to Mila) and hubs favourite is Martha.
I'd like Middle name Jayne (family tradition) but also like May, or Grace as a middle name. Our surname is McDonald and our little boy is called Rex William.
Any opinions (or other suggestions) greatly appreciated!!
Thanks in advance x

I prefer Martha by a mile. There are a LOT of Amelias around.

I don't think Mila flows naturally as a nn for Amelia - more likely Milly.

Stop saying hubby and hubs - it's making me wince.

Martha and Rex don't go. Mila and Rex are great.
