If you gave birth today (hypothetically) what do you think you would name your baby?

I think if I had a girl she would be Monroe and boy would be Atlas

Daughter- Fern

Son- Nicholas or Benjamin (family names. I always struggle w boys names for some reason)

Edward or Theodore for a boy, don't have any lined up for a girl.

Keira or Sunday for a girl,
Indigo or Francis for a boy

Alexander
Cant imagine having a girl , s no name . ( Not that there is any chance of having another child at all ! )

OakleyStreetisnotinChelsea · 14/01/2025 20:14

Girl would be Miriam. Miriam Alice.

No idea for a boy. I've named 2 of them and that was hard enough.

I like Atlas, not weird here at all.

If I had a boy he would be Griffin, a girl is harder, probably Saoirse.

I feel like girls names are easier to like but boys names are easier to use if that makes sense!

Agree with you, I work with children and have met a fair few Atlas’ now at different ages

Atlas?!

No.

I would name my children something they could use as an adult.

William, Oliver, Henry.
Elizabeth, Olivia, Imogen

Atlas is a silly name. Sorry OP
