Who had one as a child, and what was her name?

Mine was Madison May, and I regret it because I could not call my DD Madison even though I heart the name!

I can't remember my cabbage patch dolls original name, but I renamed her Rebecca!

ChocFudgeCake · 20/02/2009 23:22

Ashley Allison! Or Allison Ashley??

I waited years and years(too expensive) and finally had it for a b'day or Christmas when I was 18 or 19!! I'm hoping my sister didn't throw it away when she moved last time . Argh. I'll have to email her.

My mother refused to ever buy me one. She hated the bloody things! Said they were ugly.

StarbucksAddict · 11/02/2009 17:25

Ooooh I had a boy called Nat Sebastian. I knocked off the Nat.

GreatGooglyMoogly · 10/02/2009 15:43

I had Mandy Alice and one of my friends had Michael Harry. I think we got off lightly!

magnummum · 10/02/2009 15:22

Mine was Robin Tabitha - dd doesn't have my affection for her sadly...

Thunderduck · 10/02/2009 15:08

MrsMattie · 10/02/2009 14:48

We also had a Megan Margaret, a Bernard and a Wilhelm. lol

McBolshy · 10/02/2009 14:20

I didn't have one, but I looked like one. Yeah, lucky old me, eh?

earlynite · 10/02/2009 14:05

Maxwell Verne (he was a baby one and I adorded him- he was black but over the years he developed green spots. I was heartbroken!)

devonsmummy · 09/02/2009 20:39

I never had one as a child - too expensive you know!
I told my DH about how I'd always wanted one and he bought me Kalley Lillie for xmas a couple of years ago.
gotta be my best pressie ever

clairebear88 · 08/02/2009 15:17

I still have mine in the loft and was a bald girl names April Tayla. She was scary but I loved her so much. I will have to get up in the loft and bring her down for a cuddle

PlumBumMum · 08/02/2009 12:15

I was never allowed one, oh I must post on the other thread

Although I don't know about in England etc but when I was little there were these terrible urban myths about kids getting left alone with their cabbage patch dolls and getting murdered by them

Me thinks somebody was watching chucky, so needless to say I stopped asking for one

ruddynorah · 08/02/2009 12:11

me and my sister had loads. we had to babies, one called ella sabina, the other alice sabina. we also had 'real hair' ones called rachel and edna (can't remember middle names) and our first ones were the wooly hair ones, i had amanda, she had bernard. they were both slightly brown skinned, us being mixed race! still have them all, none still have hair though!

dd has one called beulah...or boooooler.

nissa · 08/02/2009 12:01

Mine was Tullulah Belle,

My daughters is Taya Denise.

Sadly, mine was nailed to the garden fence and used as target practice with the air gun by my step dad and brother - I've never recovered from the trauma

BellaMummy · 08/02/2009 08:51

I had one as a child called Gavin Spencer, and we just bought one for dd when we were in NY (was about 10 pounds - sure they weren't that cheap when I was small!) and she is called Maxie Lyla. DD loves her!

bluebump · 05/02/2009 16:32

I remember those Garbage Pail Kids you could get stickers of which were an evil version of the Cabbage Patch Dolls.

YesSirICanBoogie · 05/02/2009 16:29

Janella Olivetti, Ginny Libby and Reuben Kit. My Mum gave them away when I was 12 and I still pretend to be traumatised by it!

ramonaquimby · 03/02/2009 18:19

I had a boy, called Wilton Abe. My girls play with him now!
