Would love to know whay "type" of names people give their dcs - i.e. if people stick to the same thrend or style of name for their DC so they flow well together or if it doesnt really make a difference at all.

I'm due number 2 in January and am almost decided on a name, but have found myself coming to decision by trying all names with dds. Just wondering what others do...

Would love to steal hear some...

3 DDs:
DD1 Carys Elise
DT1 Eleri Gwen
DT2 Lowri Ceinwen

We deliberately chose Welsh first names for al 3 and to comply with my strange little mind, deliberately chose 5 letter first names. I don't know why, I just liked it.

Put them on your profile, then post to say 'my kids' names are on my profile' then you can delete them when you want to.

Maybe ask MN to delete the whole post once its done a dusted. Not sure if it would ever be a security risk though, kids names are on plenty of databases, doctors, dentists, schools, clubs, nurseries etc etc

When I had ds1 I was mad set on calling him .........Pheonix and if he had been a girl he was going to be Atlanta...until my mummy said it was silly and named him lol

GoppingOtter · 15/10/2009 20:22

i daren't what if they wouldn't

alwayslookingforanswers · 15/10/2009 20:10

yea I'm sure they would (have had things deleted for less spurious reasons )

GoppingOtter · 15/10/2009 20:09

i was wondering about that.... would mn do it do you think

alwayslookingforanswers · 15/10/2009 20:05

or post them - leave it a day or two (or hour if you prefer) and then ask MN to delete

facebookaddict · 15/10/2009 20:04

Change name and post...! I was perhaps a little naive to post mine on this name but hey, can always change this name..

GoppingOtter · 15/10/2009 20:02

facebookaddict · 15/10/2009 19:56

Barbie sorry only just saw your reply from the other day, must have missed it somehow.

Rory and Shannon? (cousin has a Rory and he's GORGEOUS so have always loved the name!)

facebookaddict · 15/10/2009 19:52

GoppingOtter what do you mean (new to MN)? are the 'rules' different in chat- ie. you'd like to comment on funny names or do I misunderstand?

MissClavel · 15/10/2009 19:09

This is wonderful.

Gabriel Angelo George
Sebastien Jack
