how can i persuade dh that he loves the name...

[broccolitrees]

... Ianthe Rose???
i love that and have done for years. dd has an unusual name and we have always thought we would have another unusual name for no. 2 however dh doesn't like/has gone of ianthe (pr. I-an-thee)
dd thinks it's really pretty too, but dh isn't playing ball very early on so have lots of time to try and win him over. need to get him to think it's his idea...

Sorry, agree with DH - it's a pretty name but a bit of a mouthful. Try shouting 'Ianthe, your dinner's ready'!

What does DH like?

Whats your DD1's name? See if we can think of other ideas for names that go with it?

I do like Ianthe though, its lovely

I have found that if I just keep referring to the unborn baby as then my DH just gets used to it. He even thinks he chose the name of DD.

I love Ianthe.

iwasyoungonce, i like your style
