Girls' names are a million times harder than boys', IMO. There are names I like on other people but I can't think of one single girls' name I would be able to use on a baby daughter. Hope I have another boy!

ButtonMoon88 · 29/08/2015 09:28

Agree girls names are a million times harder! There are lots of names I like, but wouldn't necessarily pick for my child. So based on that my list is small hahah

That's it today, at the moment it seems I'm into the more frilly, princessy names.

waxweasel · 29/08/2015 17:06

I find the opposite! There seem so many more interesting options with girls names, whereas I just cant get excited about any boys ones. We have one or two that are fine and I could use, but I just don't feel the same OMG I LOVE IT feeling that I do for girls names. Really hoping this DC is a girl...

Well if we're talking about boy's names I have some good ones...(I think!)
