OK, so my baby was born a girl and I had not got a girl's name sorted...totally convinced a little boy was on his way as I was. Then, just as I was getting to know her and to decide on a name she was rushed into hospital and I almost lost her. Very scary, but I was bizarrely determined she would be named at home on Christmas day and not in such a scary place/circumstance. Now after weeks in hospital, her pet name has become Lulu - because every time I tried out Lucy as a name, Lulu came out instead. So does that mean I just don't like Lucy enough to use it? She does not seem like a Lucy but Louisa seems so thirtysomething...?
Other names that made our top five were Harriet and Ruby but Lulu is such a dear name to me now, as it got us through some dark days.
I know this is a bizarre reason to reach out to the forum, but I cannot pick a long name for my little Lulu to save myself. Help!
