What else might I like? Can't really use it as a vague work associate used it and it doesn't feel right. Or should I just use it? Any ideas?

I loved Eden for DS but DP said no. On the basis that I love it and so do you I'll tell you what the other option were for DS (my options anyway, not DP's, he vetoed all of them except for one).

If you like the name I say go for it. You won't always have the work association and your son never will, it'll be his name not someone who you once worked with, IYKWIM?

Arden (as in 'Forest of ...')

Boy or girl? Everyone else seems to be thinking boy, but I'd assume 'Eden' was a girl.

Hyperhelpmum · 18/10/2013 16:31

Sorry it's a girl! Should have said!

Eden is a lovely name Hyper - I only know of one - she's in her twenties.

Arden is a good suggestion. There's also Arwen, Erin and Wren (saw it mentioned on a recent thread!).

Eden was my girl's name for DC2 who turned out to be a boy. DC1 is Elysia, meaning "heavenly bliss".

Sonlypuppyfat, helpful. Thanks.

If I can help someone then I will, no need to thank me

Chopsypie · 18/10/2013 21:46
