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

DH is sighing very loudly. He is not in the mood he said to discuss names and not sure if he likes Arianna. Wouldn't you think he would be jumping for joy at us still trying to find a name?!

Ari or Anna as nicknames

No Dizzy now you have me thinking about my non-existent DD4's name

I know an Arianna and she is a lovely little thing

I love Elodie but DP hates it

I thought I would never find a name for DD3 but one just sort of jumped out at me nad fortunately DP loved it too as there was nothing we could agree on
