Yes what did you pick?

carmellax · 08/08/2019 00:01

What did you choose OP?

user1493494961 · 23/07/2019 09:11

Mabel.

Fatkins · 21/07/2019 15:50

Acacia is awful imho and advising her how "to get what she wants" despite her oh not liking the name isn't on really.

  1. Saskia
  2. Mabel

Both really nice!

  1. Lilia

Horrible and overly frilly.

I've been on a few of your threads btw op and I don't really mind you asking again 🤷.

Starrynights86 · 21/07/2019 12:16

Please just pick Acacia, the name you really want. Hold that baby in your arms, look at your DP and say Acacia. You’ll get what you want!

Saskia is nicer though.

laylabella · 21/07/2019 12:00

Have you decided OP?

Icklepup · 17/07/2019 15:35

Saskia

daisypond · 17/07/2019 12:33

Saskia. I really dislike Mabel - it’s dull and dreary. Lilia is a bit bland. How about Lilias? Old Scottish name.

mondler · 17/07/2019 11:25

I totally get going around in circles over the name. Choosing is so hard! If you have the time and not due straight away then I try not to think about it for a week, knowing you have a lovely shortlist. Then come back to it. Harder said than done but me and dp did this and it helped not talking about it!

Also nothing wrong with having a shortlist instead of the one!

For what it's worth they are all great names. Do you like Fern enough as that's my fav but I know you had it as a middle.

Good luck

Why is everyone being so rude? “No one cares” & “buy a book like everyone else”
This is a baby names forum..... have I missed something ??? Confused

AmyMaria2 · 17/07/2019 01:40

Saskia goes really well with ds name x

IsobelRae23 · 17/07/2019 01:36

None of them go with Grayson. Just pick a name, and I agree with others- please don’t start yet another thread. Just use the same thread!

laylabella · 16/07/2019 21:46

Saskia

Owlbert · 16/07/2019 20:36

Saskia!

MmmBlowholes · 16/07/2019 07:28

Why did you need 8 threads? Couldn't you just carry on number 1 for as long as you were being ridiculously indecisive?

MumdayMania · 16/07/2019 07:14

Just pick Saskia.

Those 3 names are so mismatched I think you've been over thinking things and lost a sense of the style of name you like.

Saskia is your long running favourite (from reading your other threads) and goes nicely with Grayson as a sibling set.

Forget other names for awhile and sit with Saskia. What does you dh think of it?

I actually think Sasha is nicer and goes better with Grayson but your crossed that off for some reason.

username1724 · 15/07/2019 23:45

Lillia is so pretty and underused.
Saskia is second choice, Mabel third (but still a great name)

Pollysizedprimarkpocket · 15/07/2019 17:25

Saskia but can this PLEASE be your final thread on this.
Join Netmums or something and ask there if you want to start a 9th thread

Cbeebiesrehab · 15/07/2019 17:19

Has*

Cbeebiesrehab · 15/07/2019 17:19

The OP is clearly excited about her new baby and is got herself in a bit of a pickle over names, I think some of your reactions are a bit unkind...particularly as she is asking in a baby names forum!!
OP I really like Mabel and Nora but I feel like Saskia matches Grayson better. Good luck to you.

JoxerGoesToStuttgart · 15/07/2019 17:12

Oopsie is a horrible name. Don’t use it. Unless you live with iggle Piggle

tenthreginald · 15/07/2019 17:11

Mable is awful.

Topseyt · 15/07/2019 17:10

I thought from the title that you were considering calling your child Oopsie!!

From your list, I prefer Saskia.

Aram1nta · 15/07/2019 17:07

Please stop starting threads constantly. You've got a bit of a cheek telling people to bore off when you're the boring one.

Is it just a joke or something? I don't get this

CalamBalam · 15/07/2019 17:01

Labour will be a walk in the park for you compared to this name choosing malarkey.
