We are going to find out the sex of the baby on Wednesday. So far we have settled on Iris Emmeline if it's a girl and Beau Jude for a boy. We already have Leon, Louis and Freya Ophelia. What are your thoughts on those and other suggestions are welcome Smile

Firstly, congratulations!
Iris Emmeline is gorgeous. Sorry I'm not keen on Beau - unfortunately I know two Beaus and they are both girls, which is daft as it is definitely a boys name. Jude is lovely

flickerty · 30/07/2017 11:48

Oh, plus Beau Jude will give the initials BJ which can be a pain in school (ex-teacher here)

KeiraH · 30/07/2017 11:50

I never even thought of that! You are so right, that's definitely a no now. Boys names are so hard!

And thank you

They really really are hard. I love your other DC choices. Freya Ophelia is so dreamy!
My boys list is Theo, Sebastian, Hugo and Kilian

I think Iris goes well with your other children's names but I don't like Beau at all!

I know 2 and it just sounds like a noise rather than a name to me. Jude is nice though :)

KeiraH · 30/07/2017 12:30

Theo and Hugo were on my shortlist but they got vetoed.

We can't agree on a name we both like, the way it's going if it's a boy, he will be called baby number 4 Grin

I like Ezra but for a middle name, other that that I am all out. Girls are so much easier

Saul?

Joseph?

Luca?

KeiraH · 30/07/2017 13:42

I like Luca but Leon, Louis and Luca are too matchy I think? I already get them mixed up :)

I like Arlo
Wyatt
Reuben on paper but they don't sound nice with my accent

I like Jude but not Beau. Iris Emmeline is lovely.

KeiraH · 30/07/2017 17:55

So it's a unanimous no for Beau...

Arlo Jude works well.

How about Elio, Eliseo or Mateo?

MammieBear · 31/07/2017 09:57

Milo, Monty, (Jude as first)

auntym · 31/07/2017 14:24

I think Felix would go really well.

KeiraH · 02/08/2017 09:54

Thank you for all the names suggestions. We ve found out that we are having a baby girl so Iris Emmeline it is 😊❤️
