I have gone off the chosen name. No joke. I am truly stuck.

Alice is very similar to Ellisa, but more "spellable" and less complicated.

KatB · 30/01/2009 18:55

Rowan - I didn't like it when I first heard it but it's grown on me.

My list for imaginary DD3 is

Imogen
Claudia (sigh, was on list for last 2 DDs but bloody DH hates it will guilt trip him during labour next time)
Elizabeth
Anna
Marianne
Sophia
Amanda

plonker · 30/01/2009 11:57

FWIW I agree with you re Elissa - would constantly be spelt incorrectly ...

plonker · 30/01/2009 11:57

How about Lucy? Would go lovely with your other dd's names.

Or
Annabel
Clara
Emily
Georgia
Ella
Eleanor
Alexandra

I need Lulumama to come over and rub my feet and give me tea and sympathy (and a huge slap).

Did you go all shitty and pathetic just before you had your last babies?

OP posts:
dizzydixies · 29/01/2009 22:17

Dizzy - you are getting more and more bizarre!

I need to go and hibernate until the baby is born. I am slowly sinking into a fog.

Violet - Parma
Otillie - Nah
Arden or Arwyn - not pretty at all
Odette - reminds me of someone who lives in the Deep South! (USA that is!)

I am being VERY temperamental today. We went to view a house for rent before, the poor Estate Agent couldn't wait to get away. You would have thought she was showing me around a doss house the way I was carrying on.

sweetkitty · 29/01/2009 22:12

sweetkitty · 29/01/2009 22:12

DD1 wants Evie. Don't like it.
Evangeline - okay.
Alexa - haven't we had this discussion re Lexie-Sue!?
Lauren - friend has it.
Sorcha - WTF!?
Seren - lovely Welsh name but we aren't welsh and mentioned it to DH a while ago and he doesn't like it.
