The due date grows closer. We grow no closer to settling on a name and loving it. Aaaggh. (Yes, I am focussing on this to block out massive coronavirus anxiety, just for now)

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Love Juniper

Goostacean · 22/03/2020 20:36

I like Juniper, and Ada has really grown on me whilst reading the thread. Strong, not fussy, like it!

Juniper is my strong favourite from your list. Sassy and distinctive, and good short forms, Junie, June, Pip.
Ada and Evangeline are nice enough.
Laurel is horrible.

PoppityBoo · 23/03/2020 01:20

I’m biased as my dd is Evangeline. Still love it to pieces 8 years on...

REignbow · 23/03/2020 12:50

Sorry OP, but I like all them 😄

1980sQueen · 23/03/2020 12:53

I love Juniper and Ada.

Robyn578 · 23/03/2020 13:44

Love love LOOOOOOVE evangeline 😍

groovergirl · 24/03/2020 07:33

As Evangeline she'd probably be known to her peers as Van, which is pretty cool.

Kitkatkatnap · 24/03/2020 10:22

What about Laurie instead of Laurel?

Wheresthebiffer2 · 24/03/2020 10:49

not keen on Ada, keep reading it as ASDA, sorry,

MikeUniformMike · 24/03/2020 10:53

Ada seems so frumpy. Asta is nice until you say it patting your jeans back pocket

Does that mean that Asa for a boy is out.

Evangeline by far the best.
Follwed by Juniper
No to the other 2

*Juniper? Have you been smoking crack?

You can't call a fucking kid Juniper.*

Erm, calm down. And many parents do. It is rising in popularity.

Buttercup54321 · 16/04/2020 23:57

Dislike them all.
Evangeline reminds me of religious activities.
Ada sounds noring.
Laurel sounds like a wreath
Juniper sounds like a spaceship and junior school.

Juliet
Ava
