What did you call your dcs?

I'd love to know,rather bored,what Mumsnetters have called their dcs if you love their names and are willing to share.

It'd be appreciated if this could be a criticism free thread. I'm pretty harsh with names myself at time,but this isn't the thread for it.

I've taught a female Etienne. It really suited her.

Dosent hurt unless your planning to emigrate I suppose.

Might even be bull I'm not well versed in French but I found it rather funny!

TessOfTheBaublevilles · 21/11/2012 12:26

Étienne is indeed a French form of Stephen. The feminine form is Étiennette.

Adam James and Luke William

Mine have lovely names but are more commonly known as
"Stop it", "Put that down" and "Please don't eat that!" Grin

Alice and Adelaide

Haylebop12 · 21/11/2012 14:11

Amelia

Not as popular as you think... Only one in her nursery class of 60.

BananaBubbles · 21/11/2012 14:11

Why the hell would I want to know your bank account details?Hmm You don't have to share if you don't want to you know.

However I find Henry, Harry, Joshua and lily quite common the last few years

BananaBubbles · 21/11/2012 14:16

That was to Trills btw.

Anyway to answer my own question,I have no children yet,but when I do a boy will probably be Ivor,Cade or Angus,and a girl,Sarah,Genevieve or Harriet.

WhoWhatNow · 21/11/2012 14:51

I have Sofia, Olivia and Anna. Yes, I have commited the cardinal sin of ending my childrens names in the same letter Grin

ItsGonnaBeFine · 21/11/2012 14:58

Dont want to out myself so wont reveal mine...

Some lovely names, here though.

Raphael is beautiful- my new fave boys name!

Adelaide is gorgeous.

sausagesandwich34 · 21/11/2012 15:03

I have the rather tame names of Kathryn (Katy) & Ella

both are the only ones in their year group but I did worry about Ella!

Papyrus · 21/11/2012 16:01

I have Eliza, Henry, Annie, Clara and Imogen.

Poor DD4 is four weeks old and still has no middle name! Blush

mum2monkeys88 · 21/11/2012 16:09

I have a Ollie and Scott x

curiousgeorgie · 21/11/2012 16:21

I have a Matilda, and am currently trying to decide for DC2 due next year Smile

rezzle · 21/11/2012 17:01

DS is Harley. I absolutely adore his name but do sometimes worry if I made the right choice due to the criticism it receives.

PickledFanjoCat · 21/11/2012 17:02

I have a nephew called Harley.

It gets a slating on here but I think it's a lovely name.

Psammead · 21/11/2012 17:19

Lucia
Francesca

Adore the name Adelaide!!! Fantastic.

I don't have any kids yet but love love love names.

My favourite girls' names are Avery, Allegra, Alberta, Alyssa... lots of As! Blythe, Elizabeth, Charlotte, Portia, Violet.... too many!

baskingseals · 21/11/2012 18:37

Alexandra, Theo and Gus.

tbh i wouldn't choose any of them again. they were all massive massive comprimises.

baskingseals · 21/11/2012 18:38

compromises - sorry they are driving me potty!

blameitonthecaffeine · 21/11/2012 18:55

Natasha, Rebecca, Matilda, Isabella and Abigail

The only one I have any regrets at all about is Isabella but only because there are so many of them.

MoreThanJustAMum · 21/11/2012 19:12

Mine are Ellena, Elias, Ethan and Emin. The 1st 3 'E's were completely accidental, the last one just had to be!
