Every name I like. He has rubbished them all, including my beloved Elsie. I feel like we'll never agree!

dd2 wasn't named for a week because we couldn't agree. i really didn't know what we'd do as despite dh saying 'ok, we'll name her what you want' after i'd sobbed (baby blues) i knew neither of us could have a name we didn't like.

we did compromise in the end and it worked out fine. dd isn't really a Betty anyway...

Gabriel.

I LOVE this name for a boy so much. Am almost hoping for a difficult next delivery so I can name baby Gabriel as compensation for all my hard work. Blush

haha practicalyimperfect makes me feel better that im not the only one!

I like Orla Raine but he thinks that means his names being demoted and were both so stubborn and competitive i dont think we'll ever comprimise!!

Girls: Lola (showgirl), Hebe (jeebies), Ottilie (utterly butterly), Clementine, Cecilia (the simon and garfunkel song), Martha, Mabel,

Boys Gabriel (gay), Felix (cat), Ptolemy, (no reason given!), Nathaniel, Arthur,

He vetoed so many names, we had to compromise on all of our childrens names, and some weren't named until the 6 week deadline.

Oh yes, Hero too. I loved Hero.
