what will we do? Where am I going to find a name from? Who wants the dubious honour of picking one for me?

DD1 wants Alice too, after Angelina Ballerina's friend. Her fish are Alice and Angelina.

Hmm. Alice feels quite right somehow. Very pretty feminine name... We may have one here ladies!

Mum LOVES Alice, she wanted me to be Alice. Sophie out, 2 in the family. DH just informed me he doesn't like Sophia anyway.

This is so flaming hard.

Alice is lovely. Sophie Owens sounds better than Sophia.

pinkjenny Grace was "Grace" as soon as we found out she was a girl. We didn't find out the sex of DD2 and had Maya for definite but not until I was 38 weeks pg. So very decisive with DD1 and not with DD2!

Dozymare - love Sophia but I don't think it sounds right with our surname - Sophia Owens?

seeker so it was YOU who started the Grace trend!? I thought it was quite "unusual" deciding on it 7 years ago. No-one I knew had it and it does bug me a bit now it being SOOO popular.

I have a Grace. She's 13, and when she was a baby, everybody said "Oh what an unusual name - I had a great aunt called Grace!"

seeker · 10/01/2009 22:10
