Teddy for a girl?

We don’t know what we are having yet, but I love the name Teddy for a girl.

I would use Theodora on the birth certificate.. so she could use Teddy, Thea, Dora or make some other name up if she didn’t want to be Teddy.

I first saw it on a tv show (Good Luck Charlie?) I think it was called. It’s an American show..

But I just love the name! What do you think for a girl?

Love it. But all that matters is what you think. I had a name and attached nickname all picked and now she’s here, although we have given her the name we chose, we all call her a totally different one lol. If you love it then it’s great

I don't particularly like it.
But it's not my child!
If you love it then go for it.
I do really like Theodora

I quite like Theadora and Thea and Dora, but I'm not so sure about Teddy...

Maybe as a nick name in doors only but not were it's sticks and everyone is calling her teddy. Good God no.

It's not one of my favourite names but I prefer it for a girl.

Didn't Robbie Williams name his daughter Teddy?

No. Defo not for a girl and not keen on it for a boy tbh.

TashaRomanoff · 03/11/2017 20:48

Not for a girl. For a boy yes

For a girl, no.
