If I have a DD, I would love love love to call her Elodie, and if I have a DS, I want to call him William.
These are my top names, but I don't think I can use them because our surname ends with a -bee sound :( and it starts with W! So DD would be Elodie Wbee and DS would be William Wbee :( I'm so sad because I completely adore these names. Is there any way it could work, or does is just sound silly? I'm not sure if I could do it to my DC!
Other names I like for a DD are:
Megan
April
Alice
Louisa
Erin
Love Grace, Charlotte, Kate, Jessica and Caitlin but have close friends and family with these names.
And for DS, I'm struggling a bit. I love traditional names, but many of them don't sound great with our surname's -bee sound :( e.g Charlie, Alfie, Eddie, Freddie etc. Other possible choices are:
Jack
Thomas
Dominic
Nicholas
George (although concerned this will be overused since the arrival of the new prince!)
DH likes James but I really don't - not sure why as it sounds good with our surname and fits the 'traditional' mould, but I can't put my finger on why I dislike it.
Love Adam, Benjamin and Alexander but we already have these names in the family. Arghh!
Any ideas on the -bee dilemma, or any other suggestions based on my 'like' lists?
Would appreciate any feedback!
