It's still very early days in the pregnancy after experiencing a mmc at 11 weeks back in January. Trying not to get ahead of myself, but equally want to start this new pregnancy with some positivity (despite the anxiety!)

We are struggling to come up with names and would love some suggestions.

We already have an Eve and an Ollie.

We have both loved the name Clara for some time, but still open to other suggestions.

We find it much harder to agree on boys names 🥴

@aintnospringchicken Faye is one of my all time favourites, but sadly my partner is of a different opinion.

I love some of these, thank you. Jude, Felix, Sam, Finn, Alex and Lewis are some that stand out to me. There have been some other lovely suggestions, but they've already been used by family and friends.
Now to get my partner on board with at least a couple!

S names are sticking out to me for a bit, clearly!

I thought a J name would sound nice eg Josephine or even a short name like Jane. I like the boy J names suggested eg Jude, Jack or Joe.

@IamnotwhouthinkIam it made me laugh to be honest - I think their comments say a lot more about them than my children's names do about me 😂

I prefer Eve, Ollie and Clare to Eve, Ollie and Clara.

Eve, Ollie and Miles
Eve, Ollie and Martha
Eve, Ollie and Ben
Eve, Ollie and Sophie

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 27/04/2024 16:17

Gosh some people are so rude- it makes you wonder why they bother to reply. Not everyone cares about name popularity. You’ve been far more polite than I would have been in reply OP 🤣

@penelopewalks I think @RedToothBrush finds the comment funny as they don't think it matters to me how popular the name Clara is, as they've already pointed out how uninteresting my existing children's names are. Someone obviously p!ssed in @RedToothBrush's cornflakes this morning!

Just seen their comment. Bloody hell 😂😂
I dread to think what their children are called!

marshmallowfinder · 27/04/2024 09:40

Adam or Zara?

Goddessonahighway · 27/04/2024 09:33

Joe for a boy (Joseph)

Clara's way too popular, there'll be loads in her class at school.

😂

Not sure what's so funny - there's another poster on this thread who's said exactly the same - Clara is way too popular. 🤷‍♀️

@RedToothBrush It seems a lot of the people I choose to spend my time with are also exceptionally uninteresting, and so many of these names have already been used by friends and family. Thanks anyway.

Check the top 10 list then choose one exceptionally common to go with your other two. Don't bother looking for anything interesting. It's not your style and you won't conform and blend in enough for your tastes.

Your boy choices are Noah, George, Arthur, Leo, Harry, Oscar, Archie and Henry.

Your girl choices are Amelia, Isla, Ivy, Freya, Lily, Florence and Mia.

Job done.
