My partner and I are expecting our first baby together in early September however, we have chosen to keep the sex as a surprise.

This seemed like a good idea at the time until it came to picking names haha

The babies surname will be Berry and my partner has expressed a love for the name Holly for a girl. I really like the name Holly but I am unsure whether we are being silly calling our child Holly Berry.

I thought I'd post on here for a bit of feedback before deciding one way or the other on it.

Boys names we are still struggling with.

TIA xx

No, definitely not

Another "no", I'm afraid.

How about Hayley? I was going to suggest Halle, forgot about the actress for a sec!

Maybe you could have Holly-Anne or something double barrelled to break it up a bit?

I think it's quite sweet!

What if Halle Berry goes and becomes a seriel killer or something.

No no no no you really shouldn’t!

She will have to live with the jokes until she’s old enough to change her ridiculous name. Names like Holly Berry, Paige Turner, Ben Dover etc are stupid jokes they shouldn’t be real names!

She could be a Marvel character. Like Pepper Potts.

Will Holly go with the other surname? If you were going to use his but it goes better with yours maybe think about doing that.
