What would your children be called if they were named after where they were possibly conceived?

My future baby could maybe be 'Alora' if it is a girl, or maybe be 'Holt' if it is a boy.

(OK, so they might also just be called 'home', but I tried to think of where else I'd been in the weeks around that time!!)

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Bury St Edmunds, or to be more precise Drovers Mead. (I could be more precise than that, given I know (a) what bed it happened in and (b) what ep of the West Wing I was watching the actual moment of conception occurred! Btw, this doesn't mean dh and I were watching telly whilst up to it, I felt the moment of conception later).

Cave middle name Castle....

practicalparent · 24/05/2008 23:52

my ds would be Brampton

Clary · 24/05/2008 23:49

DS1 would be called Melton Constable (place in Norfolk).
Sounds quite cool actually

the other two would be called after their homw town I'm afraid. We don't go away any more

divejaney you are in Derby then? At least Chad is a name!

Shitemum · 24/05/2008 23:45

Mine would both be called 'Bed'.
Could be confusing, good thing we didn't really...

GrimmaTheNome · 24/05/2008 23:38

Brendon. [Full name The Stag Hunters Inn Four-Poster]. Brendon would have been an OK name if DD had been a DS I guess. Holiday to optimize chances while TTC on clomid.

My former boss would have been a Pontefract. One of those odd TMI things but it kind of suits him.

nellyraggbagg · 24/05/2008 21:05

Charmander - you surely weren't at Eureka as in the museum?!! That would be quite something...

My DCs would both be whatever the Swedish name for the white metal Ikea bed is!

Janni · 24/05/2008 21:05

Am now rather regretting not calling DS1 Hamilton - it's quite cool!

Fulham

janestillhere · 24/05/2008 20:04

DS1 would be called either Bramley or Aston Terrace (which the last bit could be changed to Terry) or Thenighttheps1broke

DD1 would be either called "Sultana" after the ugly carpet in my parents front room or
Birstall, Batley or Howden Clough.
Or Johnson (as in the Baby Oil)if she had been a boy? TMI

Great thread DH & me have had a good laugh.
