Need some inspo!!
Any names, I like more unusual names personally but I'm not opposed to a good old classic!

What have you used?
What's your favourite?
What would you of liked to use?
What would you love to use but aren't brave enough?

Clementine is a gorgeous name!
I like Robin for a boy, it was on my shortlist for DS

@namechange30 it will have his as our DD already has his last name, my last name in a bit dodge and I got a bit of stick for it in school.. mainly from my friends but it's a burden I think it's best they dont bare hahaha, I saw someone had made a post about the name Robin and I mentioned it and he said maybe which means it's on the list! Our DD is Clementine, Clementine and Robin? I think it sounds nice :)

Whose surname will the baby have?
If you don't mind him choosing the first name, fair enough, but do give baby your surname (by itself or with his too).

@namechange30 he liked Colbie, he looked the idea of Cole and then calling him Colbie.. I like it, I'm not mad at it but it sounds a bit American to me. Plus we have a close friend with the last name Cole. But if I'm honest anything he likes I'm gonna go with as long as it's not offensive!! Haha, I've kind of pushed for our girls name and I literally haven't had a moment with any boys names so when he likes something it makes me like it :) I love like 90% of the suggestions on here I think they all sound great... but I cant even imagine trying to get Valentine past him!! As much as I'd love it haha
