To not know what to call my daughter...

It's been 2 days since we have had her and it's so stressful for me! I want her to have a name and feel bad she doesn't. I have a thread going in Baby Names and hoping that will get a name to jump out at me, but feel bad as DS had a name when we found out his gender.

How long until you found a name?

My parents didn't decide on a name for me for about 4 weeks.

And even now my mum has a pet name for me which has no resemblance to my actual name at all.

What kind of name do you want?

What is your DS called?

LeLeFox · 11/02/2016 16:47

MaxPepsi - we are having Grace for the middle and DS is called Fletcher

I'm sorry - but we need a cute baby photo.

Grace is a lovely name.

scarednoob · 11/02/2016 16:49

What sort of names do you like? Pretty victorian ones; long elegant ones; short funky ones?

Turn on the telly at random and pick the name of the first female character.

Okay, don't. But it might give you ideas and it would be an amusing game...

Imogen? Desperately wanted it for this baby but turns out we are having a boy and I won't be having any more babies after this.

Have my "if I ever have another daughter" name.... Violet Grin

acasualobserver · 11/02/2016 16:53

Since you can't decide, you could call her Enigma.
