Another baby with same name on ward - a 'sign'?

[lchats]

That we should change? So hormonal and irrational can't think for myself!

I think it's fine. They don't have the same name just a possible share nickname and you may never see the woman again.

When my eldest was born, a lady further up the ward called her son Bailey. My son had a completely different name. We were chatting about partners etc (this was a ward where we had all had c sections, so were in for a few days) and as we were leaving the ward to go home, I heard her introduce the baby by my husbands name - clearly she took a fancy to it after we'd been talking :) - That was a bit strange I thought!

Oh, I love Nell - please don't change.

No its lovely, keep it! Congratulations

With DS1 there were four of us in the bay on the ward - three boys with the same name, and a girl.

He hasn't been in a baby class, toddler group, swimming group, or school year with another of his name yet. Despite being twenty-somethingth in the year for baby names, we have only met one other of the same age, a friend of a friend.

It is not a sign, just a weird coincidence.

Thx all we are sticking! X

Good! It is fabulous! (And congratulations!)

But Nell is the the nn right? It's actually two different names?

Glad to hear it!

Congrats :) glad you decided to stick.

Helena is such a beautiful name, do stick!

Congratulations
No it's the hormones talking, your baby doesn't havnt thesame name at all it's not even close,NN don't really count, if they did "little man" would surely be topping the name lists x
