Rose or Holly

Well I go for induction next thurs and we still can't agree on a name!

I would like Rose; hubby wants Holly. Hubby also likes Emily but I think it's too popular now and too similar to our DD1s name. We both liked Violet as a middle name but I am going off it as it is one of the names of my MIL and, well, enough said really Wink

Will Holly be a nightmare at school - esp at Xmas (I have a surname that I was teased for so am more sensitive to this)?

So Holly or Rose?? Or do we wait and after the horrors of childbirth I point out I should get more saySmile X

I'm a holly and never ever been teased. I think someone might have (hilariously) said '...and the ivy' to me once or twice when I was younger. And I may have been asked a couple of times if I was born at Xmas (I wasn't). But honestly, never a prob! I like my name now and think it is sweet. Rose is lovely too. And DD's mn is Violet so obviously I love that. You can't go wrong with any of them.

A friend of mine is Violet Rose and I always think her name is stunning.
