If our DCs could choose the new baby's name...

[phlossie]

I want to hear some funny suggestions from your DCs. This is the list that my two (aged 4 and 5 yo) would have written for their new brother or sister:

Poostand
Lovely
Bullseye
Die (my DS doesn't want another sister)

My DS came up with the lovely name Heartvalve for when he grows up and has a boy!!!

From DS (4) and DD (2)
Jake
Peppa
Virgil
Bumblebee
Sam

Sam is actually on our list if we ever have DC4.

My DD, nearly 3 wants to call the baby....

Princess

When prompted for a 'proper name' she offers:

Noah (for a girl as she is insistent that the baby will be a girl)
Millie

At least she has some ideas, I on the other hand can't find any names i like!

Lovely idea for a thread!

DS2 aged 4yrs is absolutley set on us calling DC4 if its a boy Hamza,after his best friend at school,which is a lovely name but as we are not eastern european its hard to explain why it not on our short list!

And if its a girl his first choice would be Soldier !

If DS had had any say in it we would have Hugbox for a girl, or R27 if a boy.

DD (1.10) has suggested Biscuit or Boobie.

Hmmm...

DS wants to name the baby after himself, regardless of whether it's a boy or girl!

9y DD will only come up with sensible ideas I'm afraid.
For a girl Hermione or Persphonie.
For a boy Harry or Albus.

She does have a thing for Harry Potter thse days though!

DS would say Buzz lightyear coolest toy ever.
Bit of a mouthful though

DD when aged 6/7 was proposing Bluebell, Tinkerbell, Annabelle (after the baby doll) and Fifi for a potential sister.

By 8 or so she'd discovered the Sound of Music so she wanted Leisl, Gretl, Brigitta, Marta and something else I forgot... But not Maria, that was a grown up.

I have none yet but my little 6 year old neice suggested Caitlin...
Which is oddly enough the middle name anyway

And my cousins 5 year old said Sophie ... Which is dh's top name

DS wanted to call DD puppy - his comforter toy's name. Nothing but imaginative in this house!

My 3-year-old niece has suggested Rapunzel for anything needing a name these days - regardless of gender.

Duckyducky.

DD said she wishes we'd called her Rainbow Rose.

DS2 would have been called Gordon Henry Percy if DS1 had had his was (was going through a Thomas stage at the time)

About 2 years ago he also decided he didnt like his own name and wanted us to call him Chad Sparrow

saffroncake Louisa is the fifth von trapp. [hgrin]

DD would have been James if DS had had his way

DD1 (aged4 )had this name all lined up for DD2:
Daffodil Poochie-pie Jesus Zebedee Strawberry Spring baby (+ surname)

As a compromise we let her choose the RL middle name - and she came up with Florence!

Monkey [for a girl]
no boys names because,'I'm a boy'
It was a girl but we didnt use his name....

DD1's suggestions for DD3 have been

Rose (we were going to use it, but a close friend used it)
Bluebell, after her chicken.
Twinkletoes

Dd who is 20 month is telling everyone that her new baby will be called...bambi!

My parents asked my then 3 year old brother for his suggestions on what to call me.

Thankfully for me they chose not to go with his delightful suggestion of "Fish 'ed"

2 year old DD wanted to call DS1 'Tesco' Luckily she likes the name we chose.

DS who is now 3y wanted to call DS2 Harry. We didn't choose this name but DS will only refer to 5-month-old DS2 as Harry. Looks a bit dodgy in public sometimes when DS is talking to 'Harry' and DH and I are talking to BabyNevilleBarnes...

I've just asked. For a boy, it was the (nice, normal) Oscar.

But for a girl, it was Spring, Summer, Winter or Flower!
