Those with 3 and more DC - did you find it really difficult to choose third and subsequent names? I am finding it really difficult!

I have a DD and a DS
Love both their names

Now, I either think "meh" about names or I can't reach agreemetn with DH (he won't let me have Miles and Amelia the fucker)

I never had this problem with the other two!

I have three dd's. Doh

Couldn't decide on dd3's name. Doh

Think its time for me to go to bed ...

bluenosesaint · 15/05/2008 23:10

Yes. I have two dd's. Love dd1 and dd2's name ...and love their middle names.

Couldn't decide on dd's name. Then i set my heart on a name but it was dh's choice. He picked a different name. I still don't like it. She is 10 months old

MamaG am the same have two dd's and now struggling with ideas for this dc

we still have all the names we loved for a boy as we haven't had a chance to use them but are struggling for a girls name

at least we have 10wks to go

cheesesarnie · 15/05/2008 21:09

we let dd and ds1 chose names.dd chose a girls name and ds chose a boys name.when ds2 was born we named him ds1 choice(we talked him out of kitten rainbow)and dd chose his middle name.

PeachyHas4BoysAndLovesIt · 15/05/2008 21:07

found ds2 and ds3 harder

when DS3 was born I hasd a really strange sense of missing Sebastian- even though he didnt exist

well he does now, and he was worth missing LOL!

dh chose ds2's name and I dint like it, but i adore it now as does he- it suits him (Stirling)

BigBadMouse · 15/05/2008 20:57

DC3 is due on Sunday but we still have no name we agree on. I think it is more to do with him being a boy than himn being the third - we agreed on a girls name before he was even conceived.

I have one name I love but DH will not have since he told his dad what it was and his dad said it was awful . There are others that are OK but he will be our last child and only boy so I want to get it right. Just hope I know his name as soon as I see him - it's an emotive subject for me

Help!!

mazda that is

EffiePerine · 15/05/2008 19:54

Can you tell us what it is Hatrick? I seem to remember one of your options was Cyrus, which I like a lot

(Dh, as you may have guessed, does not)

in fact I used to know someone called Xerxes Cyrus Madza which is a very cool name indeed (2 kings and a God)

Chances are you'll probably come to love it hatrick. How long do you have to get used to it?

I found it hard cos we wanted scottish names but not too scottish as they were growing up in England. They are all boys and we were running out of options. DS3 is due in a few weeks and were set on a name finally

EffiePerine · 15/05/2008 19:48

I take it all back

it has come up with Rastus Frederick Augustus

that is an inspired choice

EffiePerine · 15/05/2008 19:47

another suggestion was Trent. Which is a water company.

EffiePerine · 15/05/2008 19:47

and Kendrick which is not an English name I have heard of
Abner Kendrick indeed

blinkingthreetimes · 15/05/2008 19:47

Ok I just tried it and got a TROY TOBY OMG

EffiePerine · 15/05/2008 19:46
