So baby no.3. Just confirmed as a girl, and we like Ripley- anyone got any thoughts, positive or negative?!

No, sorry.

It might get shortened to Rip which isn't a nice word.

I considered this for my daughter, as in Ellen Ripley. DP said no. He wouldn't let me call her Furiosa either. Sad

Defintely Alien, 'Believe It or Not' or 'Talented Mr', none of which are great connotations for a child (or adult). It might be a cool name for a dog but not a person.
