What names would you choose?

There are lots of names that my dh and I don't agree on. If you could use any name you wanted, what would it be?

Personally I'd be using Sally, which I have loved since I was a girl. I'd also use Elijah, but DH won't hear of it.

Katherine, which my DH likes, NN Kitty, which he does not!

GloriousGloria · 04/10/2014 18:27

Sawyer = boy

Robyn = girl

DD1 would have been Mia.

(I still get a quiver when I see that name).

I chose dd2's name. I didn't want to call her Mia. I think if we have a dd3, she would be Mia because dh now understands how much I love the name.

My boy would be Gabriel

Eminybob · 04/10/2014 18:59

Elijah and Elodie.

DP vetoed Elijah but DS is definitely not an Elijah anyway and very much is the name we did give him.
If we have a DD next time she will be Elodie.

CPtart · 04/10/2014 18:59

Adam (have one) and Natalie

HSMMaCM · 04/10/2014 18:59

Seraphina and Sebastian here too!

DD has my all time favourite girl name. I don't think I'd manage to get Seraphina past DP if we had another girl.

Lunastarfish · 04/10/2014 19:18
