My baby daughter is called Zuri. It means beautiful in swahili. It suits her so much she has the prettiest daintiest features.

When I was pg with number one I loved the name Astrid. I found out the baby was a boy which is what I secretly wanted anyway so didn’t think about girl names again. Ds is now 17.

When I was pg with number 2 I had my girl name well and truly sorted but struggled for a boys name. Found out I was having a girl and went with the name I loved which is Lucy. She’s now 9 and there is one other in her school. I still love her name.

All done with babies now but if I had another girl I would choose Rose.
