I believe Genevieve was actually a Darracq (sp?), not a Bentley

My gran used to talk about one of her childhood friends called Mungo, and I used to to pmsl everytime I heard the name.

Sorry

Ohh I will mourn the boy called Mungo I never had for ever. I mourn Genevieve. Everyone says call the next one Genevieve then if its a girl. But I can't coz it feels like DD2s name and she is left with a Ford Mondeo name when she could have had a Bentley of a name.

Oh deary me. This is the thing I think about most when am pregnant. Silly really.

I love the name Mungo (happy memories of a Scotish game keeper), but I wouldn't use it for my child. (Just my imaginary labrador)

Genevieve is good.
Mungo is
Fine if he turned out to be an artist, university professor even. But admire your chutzpah!

Oh dear praps he can be my imaginary son like my imaginary daughter Genevieve which I bottled at the last minute and called her something much simpler.

Then I could get on the Larger Families topic with kids and imaginary kids, its all so busy round here!
