Hi all, what do you think of Fontanelle for a girl?

Dauphinoise is much nicer. Pronounced dwarf and arse. Beautiful.

Cerebella Grin

What about Phalange? Grin

It’s ok but it’s not in the same league as Scrotum or Areola.

GuppytheCat · 21/05/2020 07:00

I do know an Ilia

Random body parts could bdd Ed a rich seam of names;

Trochanter
Cerebella
Occipita
Masseteric
Vagus (a winner?)

It's not April fools day!

I thought you said Villanelle at first. Love that but then my girl crush is Jodie Comer!

worstwitch18 · 21/05/2020 06:51

Goes well with Balonz.

GuppytheCat · 21/05/2020 06:50

As a sister for Temple, perhaps?

Maxilla is nicer.

Fontanelles are the soft spot on baby's head where the skull bones have not yet fused together. Not a name for a baby, no.

Toilenstripes · 21/05/2020 06:50

Uhm, that’s the technical name for a baby’s soft spot.

BillywilliamV · 21/05/2020 06:50

Your child needs that name like she needs a hole in the head!

The soft spot on your baby’s skull? Confused

justamumof1 · 21/05/2020 06:49

Sounds like a ready made dessert

ElizabethMainwaring · 21/05/2020 06:48

Nice try!
