What did you plan to call your children (when you were a child?)

[Mrsknackered]

Indigo Blue
Violet Skye
Sunny Rae
Sienna Rose
Posy Flo

(In that order)

I think Sonny Ray and Arthur Bear were the boys names....

I have 2 DS's with much less colourful names still holding a torch for Indigo

[ifyouposttheyjudge]

Twin girls Tilly & Milly

And a boy called Merlin ?!

[timeisnotaline]

Willow
Carslake
Viper Bede

Probably not going to happen...

[Squealhowlscary]

I thought it sounded super sophisticated and rather posh!

Also loved Amber and Ebony. Toss up between Tate and Lyle for a boy I've always had a massive sweet tooth
Oh and b/g twins named Connor and Courtney.

Didn't use any of them.

[usernameavailable]

I can't use the name I wanted as a child because it is very outing. But when I was a teen I loved tequilla for a girl. Yes i know it is a drink but i thought it made a beautiful girls name! I have 3 Dds and all of them have escaped any names to do with alcohol.

[GoldSpot]

Phylis
Philip
Diane
Daryl
Candice
Bianca
Jake

Quite a varied assortment. I read quite a lot of Enid Blyton

[Crunchymum]

Cassie for a girl.

Never had a boys name?

[beargryllshasabigrope]

Chloe

[MrsBirdseye]

Andrew (Andy) - was in love with a couple of boys who had that name. Unfortunately, a couple of arseholes spoiled it for me

[SecretSmellies]

Sage
Zoe for girls

Ezekiel for a boy

When I was 13-14 I decided Iwas going to change my first name by deed poll to 'Moffat'.

I didn't.

[RuthW]

Keeley, Kylie and Kayleigh.

[Mrsknackered]

Oh, Lilac Rose is good.

Sienna Rose and Sunny Rae were identical twins though, so they needed to have the same initials

[Eilasor]

OP! Violet Skye was one of my definites as a teen. Also, Scarlet Rae is similar to yours. Lilac Rose was another of mine. Prior to this phase; I liked Zoey, Chloe, Stacey, Lacey, Macy and Carly. My friends and I would fight over whose daughter could be named Stacey (most desirable) and Zoey (second best) and the rest could have the rhyming names...

Absolutely no recollection of any boys names that I liked.

[helensburgh]

Lesley and craig

[SuperBeagle]

Paisley, for a girl. I thought it was the prettiest, coolest name ever

I like Paisley. I like all of those -sley names (Presley, Ensley etc) that are reviled on here. I wouldn't be game to use them haha.

[Dixiestampsagain]

It’s safe to say some had better taste than others as kids!! Lots of Enid Blyton type influences!

[thegreylady]

I made up the name Joanda for a possible daughter and Dorothy Margaret Elizabeth Ann for another using the names of all the prefects I thought were wonderful as a first year at Grammar School.

[OneMoreTune]

Paisley, for a girl. I thought it was the prettiest, coolest name ever

[PsammeadPaintedTheLion]

Mallory for a girl
Camden for a boy

Yes, as in Towers and Market.

I don't even know.

[BikeRunSki]

Sam, and I did.

[CountFosco]

Caroline is a beautiful grown up name, due a revival. I like Caro as a NN as well.

[Buntysoven]

Oh.. I didn't use Catherine either 😂

[Buntysoven]

Twins Catherine and Caroline... very sensible! Good job I didnt use Caroline though as I worked with a truly vile one.
