We're still seeking inspiration. Can you give me your absolute favourite girls name - just one - never min whether it goes with siblings or surname or is too posh or dh doesn't like it. I'd just love to know everyone's favourite. Maybe we'll be inspired.

Spiro - me too, they are my Mastermind Specialist Subject, after Pushchairs Available in the UK, 2007-Present.

And burning the duvet cover demonstrating how an artesian well is sunk Grin!

I picked up so much general knowledge from those books - still have my original hardbacks of the first two from when I was about 11!

My dearest wish is for them to make TV versions of the lastest few, starring Richard Armitage (my Mastermind specialist subject Wink )as Adrian.

I also automatically think Pandora=Braithwaite but , I'm NOT old Grin.

30-odd is NOT old Grin!

Amelie - my lovely little DD's name

I love Thea too but can't have it for this DC (if its a girl) because of our surname.

Matilda (tilly)
Charlotte (lottie)
Eleanor (ellie)

All-time favourite: Juliet. Agree with pp who said Juliet (with a quiet 't' not ette, and yes it does makes a difference!)

If TTTW is your favourite film, how about Claire (although a bit plain with Connie) or Audrey (old lady chic, a better match)?

Xanthe - prounounced Zanthy, my beautiful DD's name. Everyone always comments positively about it.

scottishmummy · 23/09/2012 18:56

xanthe is gorgeous name

Cezella · 27/09/2012 14:17

Lola is my absolute favourite

Nancy

pmTea · 28/09/2012 11:14

me too, BikeRunSki Smile

I am half Greek and love the name Xenia, but like XANTHE the real pronunciation is as an actual X sound, not a Z.
That's why I never called my DD Xenia, because many peeps over here cannot pronounce it or choose to use the Z instead and that does my nut Smile
Then again, each to his own!
