I think I'd like a soft, pretty, girly middle name if bump is a girl.

Something like

Lilah
Maya
Eva

Any more?

I've been racking my brains about Lula. It's the Laura Dern character in "Wild At Heart". Nicholas Cage is Sailor. Can't remember the end though. Have a feeling it may not end well.

Sorry. Nice name.

SpacePuppy - have heard of Lulu (very pretty). It's Lula I was wondering about.

Emma. My absolute fave and sounds soft to me. cannot for the life of me remember why I didn't call dd1 that, it was Emma right up until a week before she was born.

Lulu is a well known name in South Africa, there was even a TV programme when I was a child called Little Lulu.

I know a Piper. Makes me think of a flute playing gently....

Beth, Bethan, Bethany (I think the 'th' sound makes them seems soft)

Is Lula a name?

No, I think it's a pushchair.

controlfreakyagain · 10/03/2008 22:15

can you tell us first name? bit of a hard task otherwise... they have to "go"

ara · 10/03/2008 22:14

Our DD needed a 'soft' name - our list was:

Mia
Flora
Phoebe - which we chose

controlfreaky. No - already have a flower daughter, and 2nd born's first name is a bit organic already. I don't want a whole garden centre of children.
