I am expecting baby number 3 early next year and we are not finding out the gender so I need suggestions of boys and girls names.

Baby number 3 will be sibling to Sloane (girl) and Miller (boy).

Names we like (but are set on) so you can get our vibe-

Boys

  • Archer
  • Henley
  • Cash
  • Lennox

Girls

  • Elara
  • Delaney
  • Lennie
  • Gia

Isn't it better to have people point this out before you saddle your child with a name that they'll/you'll regret?

Show quote history

People and their parents can regret any name. Anne, Jane, Emily, Robert, George, Edward, whatever...

For "saddle your child with a name that they'll/you'll regret," I think you meant to say, "give your child a name I don't approve of".

@Fargo79 fair enough!

It wasn't even a thought when we picked our first two kiddos names! Sloane was a name we loved for a girl (big Ferris Bueller fans) and Miller was my mums maiden name.

I would probably go for something that didn't make them sound like a firm of solicitors, so that's all your boys' names and half your girls names out.

Took the words right out of my mouth.

No need to get salty @PennyLane335 Sloane and Miller sounds exactly like a firm of solicitors.

I really don't like most of your choices of boys names, and I would say you do you. But you are choosing a name for someone else. Please think about this before you saddle a boy with an awful name like Devlin or Cash!

@MarvellousMonsters there's a constructive way to put forward your point without a nasty tone.

I doubt they meant to be nasty. A bit tactless perhaps and too direct.

To be completely honest, I thought exactly the same thing even before I read that comment. That if you pick another "surname as a first name" they're going to sound like a firm of solicitors. I'm not saying this to be rude, but to highlight the possibility of it being a fairly common reaction to your kids' names forevermore if you choose to go down that route.

Do not call your child Cash. That would be cruel.
From your list I like Lennox and Elara best.

DaisyLadies · 21/10/2024 20:48

I actually like Bernie (for a boy or a girl) a girl would probably be Bernadette for a longer name.

Sloane, Miller and Bernie
or Sloane, Miller and Cosette

@StillAtTheRestaurant I don't know why people comment if they have nothing nice to say honestly.
