Phoebe

[CaipirinhasAllRound]

What do you think? Do you know many?

[Magix]

I have one I'll PM you her middle name

[Degustibusnonestdisputandem]

heh heh, don't worry about it for what it's worth I really wanted to be called Kate when I was about 4

[Degustibusnonestdisputandem]

Cheers Everlong!

[BabyMummy29]

I know of one who doesn't like it cos she's the only one in the school. Not a favourite name of mine, just doesn't have a nice ring to it.

[LynetteScavo]

I don't know any.

I think it's a great name.

It would have really suited DD....much more than the name we gave her.

[Frikadellen]

I love Phoebe that much dd 1 (who is 16 this week) is called it.

But it is popular and your likely to come across others. In infant she was with 2 others in juniors with 1 other & in secondary she is with 3 others over 8 forms..

Its not a biggy imo but it does make me sad it became that popular as when we picked it, it was not so popular (she is named after JD Salingers " the Catcher in the Rye"- friends was only just coming out here when she was born)

[Icedfinger]

I'm cuddling my 8 month old Phoebe now. I love it!

[squoosh]

I think it's quite a dull name.

[elQuintoConyo]

I know a 6mo and a 40yo.

I know how to spell it and it doesn't make me think of friends.

[Dovahkiin]

Just a warning - here in Korea they pronounce it PeeBee - which translates as 'blood rain.' I think it's pretty cool and Valkyrie :)

[HighVoltage]

We are big fans of Elizabeth in our house so my vote goes to Phoebe Elizabeth.

Good luck with the birth.

[Viasabat]

I have 12 week old Phoebe, everyone always comments on what a lovely name it is!

[buttercrumble]

Love it

[mrsnec]

It would be on my list too but they pronounce it pivi here which I'm not so keen on. Love the suggestions for middle names too.

[OneMoreThenNoMore]

Love it. It's my dd's name. No one has ever mentioned Phoebe from friends, but lots of strangers have commented on how lovely the name is.

Dd is 3 and we've come across two other Phoebes- another 3 year old and a baby.

Dd has a family name as her middle name. A couple of posters upthread have suggested Miranda as a middle name- I like it

[teenagetantrums]

I love it and have one that was born in the 90's i was asked alot when she was born if we named her because of friends (we didn't it was just the only name we agreed on). She has always been the only one in both her schools.

[extracrunchy]

Love it!

[BrianTheMole]

Its a good name. I know one. She's an adorable, confident and funny little girl.

[Pregnantberry]

Love it! Our friend's DD is a 6yo Phoebe who is quiet but feisty.

We would have seriously considered it if we hadn't known one well already.

[shalo2]

My new daughter is called Phoebe! I love it and everyone comments on what a lovely name it is!

[Innogen]

My sister is an 18 year old Phoebe. I think it is gorgeous, though our mother would be gutted about the popularity if she were naming her now.
