Using the girls name you didn’t get to use last time?

Just a quick Q for your thoughts. When DC1 was born, we didn’t find out the sex. We had a boy’s name and a girl’s name picked out, but of course only one got used (the boys!)

Now pregnant with DC2, we still like the girl’s name we liked with DS. However part of me associates it with him and I’m not sure about using it for DC2.

What would you do? Smile

Use it

I’m keeping the same girls name I had first time round as we only really found one we both liked and then had a boy. The middle name keeps changing though depending what mood I’m in.

I would definitely use it if you love it. Will actually be a nice story to tell them when they're old enough.
