How did you pick between two names?

[FennCara]

The choice is all mine so no-ones going to veto either. What tipped the balance if you were stuck between two?

You take a mumsnet vote of course and go by our decision

Actually, I don't know, I had long lists which was maybe easier than deciding between 2 that you like equally.

DH had a dream and DD was using one of them and highly successful!

I'm in this dilemma too. Kit? Or Wilfred?

Had two names for dd.

We waited until she arrived, and were so overjoyed with her that me and dh were all "you choose" "no, you choose" "noooo, YOU choose"!!

We went with what we thought she suited more.

She's nearly 10 now...very happy with our choice, and the other name was nearly reused for dc3 if he had been a she!

It is still on my list of fantasy babies names.
