Hi all on here,

I'm a very long time lurker - have been since my first ever pregnancy. However, unfortunately, we haven't had a child since a couple of weeks ago. IVF and 6 years later, 3 little miracles entered the world and they belong to us. I haven't wanted to take part with all the threads until I was officially a mummy. They are almost 3 weeks and I can just about begin to see their personalities come through, as multiples tend to be early, I've only just really been able to spend lots of time with them. Names are now a must.

Yes, we have had lots of ideas, but we have to think of 6 perfect names and that's becoming a really difficult task. We thought about family names, but none are particularly lovely. However, we are fans of 'filler' middle names, but I know they're not particularly liked on here, but if none sound right with our chosen names, we may not have middle names, as much to my family's disgust! We just haven't decided.

Sorry about the long post! We have 2 daughters and a son... Boys names are therefore a lot easier. Yeah, we have a lot of ideas, but there's just too many.

We like classics for boys or biblical, so names like:
Alexander
Benjamin
Charles
Daniel
Henry
Jacob
James
Louis
Matthew
Oliver
William

For girls, we vary a lot, we like such a variety:
Annabelle
Charlotte
Ella
Grace
Isabella
Lily
Olivia
Rose

There are more and definitely open to suggestions.

Thank you all so much and very pleased to be a part of this community :)

My Matthew is 10 today - so I totally approve of your name choice. Your naming syllable system is brilliant too, I love it.

Congratulations Flowers

It's been so tough! However, we have longed for this for so long, that it's just amazing and I enjoy every second.

No idea where Gabriella's bow went Sad Their outfits looked so cute! I do have a pic with her in her headband too, but oh well, I think I moved that to my laptop.

Thank you!

I also like the Charlotte and Annabelle for the girls.

This may sound really silly, but looking at the adorable pic you posted I thought Annabelle, Benjamin and Charlotte. I love the name Jacob as well though.

Triple congrats!!

Gorgeous! I love the Thing baby grows! What beauties (and beautifully named).

my3littlebeans · 13/02/2017 13:29

Can believe it's almost been a year! I haven't updated in ages. It's been crazy. Matthew has actually recently had to have surgery (swelling on his brain) but he is doing fine. They are now 10 months. Looking back on their little pictures make my heart melt.
