I just cannot decide on a name! Names I like today I tend to go off tomorrow!!

I like:

Emma
Bethany
Holly

DP doesn't like any of these as he thinks they are too boring.

She is due in March and at this rate she will be Baby Barton! Not good!

we both have names we love, but just nothing we can agree on and we both seem to severely disagree so no room to compromise. I like Winona and DP says he is not naming our child after a theiving failed actress!! That sorta thing...

Have DS Charlie so name needs to go with his name.

I really love Rose and DP likes Rosy so maybe I can get him to budge a bit and go for Rose?

He likes Maddie, which I quite like but don't love. Is Maddie a popular name?

Sounds like you need to find something else you can both fall in love with.

He likes Melissa, Tilly and Lauren but none of them seem like names I like enough.

Driving me crazy now!

Melissa is a nice name.
Emma is lovely as is Bethany and I have a niece called Holly so I'm biased on that one.

How about Felicity, Cordelia, Coralie or Celeste.

How about Melanie?

CountessDracula · 05/01/2009 13:09

I like Melissa!

So Emma, Bethany and Holly are boring and Melissa is not. Arf.

Silly man

horsemadgal · 05/01/2009 13:09

I like Melissa.

Fimbo · 05/01/2009 13:08

Emma Barton played Honey in EE.

Dd knows a girl called Sassy (now that is definately not boring)

BonsoirAnna · 05/01/2009 13:07
