Hi! FTM here. Not sure what we're having yet but I'm thinking Charlotte if it's a girl and Terry if it's a boy.

What do you think??

Ignore the haters, Terry is probably due a comback. I'd name with the full 'Terence' so he has options on which he prefers, though.

Maybe you'll start a trend. 😊

Why ignore people? OP actually asked for opinions.

Arf at Terry. You can’t be serious.

Most every Charlotte I have met/know I haven’t liked so that’s put me off that name. It’s also very common. Terry is very 70s. Terence is ok though.

Whatever name you give them they will hate it when they’re older. That’s the way it goes! I could murder my mother for my name.

Terry is awful.

KirstenBlest · 21/01/2023 15:54

I quite like Terence thinks Terence Stamp
Less keen on Terry thinks Terry Duckworth or Terry Scott

Terry is good. Terri is terrible.
How about June? 😀

Terry is definitely due a comeback! And love Charlotte

Terry fine for a girl, far too dated and nerdy for a boy.

Charlotte, well it’s ok but a bit meh…

Terry I’d it’s a boy. I think Terry is a good strong name. Terri if it’s a girl, or Regina works well too. Hope this helps and big hugs and kisses for your new bundle of joy! Xxxx mwah xxxxx

Terry?

Yesthatismychildsigh · 21/01/2023 15:18

Charlotte is fine. Terry just made me laugh.

BruceAndNosh · 21/01/2023 15:17

Yes to Charlotte (although it's a little dull)
No to Terry. No deep reason just a name I don't like
