My daughter (shes 4) actually suggested Daisy which I think is pretty cute!
Now she desperately wants me to call it Bea if it's a girl because her best friend is called Bea!!
For a boy she like Alexander like baby Alexander on peppa pig!!

My dd1 suggested Star for her baby sister. I loved that suggestion but I wasn’t brave enough to use it.

My boy is 2.5. He wants to call his baby brother Xylophone.

Mommabear20 · 18/08/2020 21:21

Our DD is only 7 weeks old but my cousins kids 7 & 6 wanted us to call baby (we didn't know the babies sex) billy bob! 😂

DS1 (almost 5) likes Elliott for a boy and Matilda for a girl.
DS2 (3) likes Jim for a boy and Bob for a girl
DS3 (1) likes Peppa for both

Dd4 went through a phrase last year of telling everyone she was having a baby called Strawberry and it was coming out of her bum Grin

worldweary45 · 18/08/2020 21:43

My 16 year old says 'It'

NameChange657 · 18/08/2020 22:17

Currently babysitting my best friend's kids whilst she's on a late at work, so chiming in with this.
13 year old boy - dunno, anything
11 year old girl - i like the name Victoria (was doing British monarchs in lockdown home school)
6 year old - Charlotte, because it's the best name ever, and there's no point in other names (she is called Charlotte)

Namechange8471 · 18/08/2020 22:28

11 year old dd- Rosie, Lily or Lola

BeMorePacific · 18/08/2020 22:34

@AintOverUntilTheCatLadySings my 3 year old goes for Pasta too.
There are worse names, I’m deffo shortlisting it 😉

BGirlBouillabaisse · 18/08/2020 23:01

DS1 had a shortlist for DS2 (we're talking nearly 5 years ago now):

Five Pounds
Fammyceedeee
Bob
No Name

Mumshappy · 18/08/2020 23:01

Dd9 Ruby.
Will never have a boy so no boy name given!

PawPatrolMakesMeDrink · 18/08/2020 23:03

DS3 is adamant that the new baby will be called Baby Sister. I mean, it’s 50:50.

MagnoliatheMagnificent · 18/08/2020 23:03

My 10 yo dd says:
Girl: Charlotte or Amelia (Amy for short)
Boy: Charlie

stopgocar · 18/08/2020 23:04

DS's suggestion (aged 3) was 'Jesus'. It was just after Christmas.

IthinkIsawahairbrushbackthere · 18/08/2020 23:04

When DS was 6 he wanted to call his unborn sister Velocity. Three year old DD rather liked Jemima Puddleduck.

SimplySteveRedux · 18/08/2020 23:05

When DD was 13 she wanted Rose for a girl, and Oblivion for a boy!

Xiaoxiong · 18/08/2020 23:13

DS aged 6 is adamant that his new cousin will be named Sashimi. DBro and SIL not as keen!!

OfDragonsDeep · 18/08/2020 23:19

My 4 year old decided he was renaming his 1 year old brother yesterday. I asked what he was going to call him....Pumpy was the answer.

Thankfully he gave up on it after half an hour Grin

FiveToFour · 18/08/2020 23:22

DS was going to be called Britney Spears....GrinGrinGrin

TorysSuckRevokeArticle50 · 18/08/2020 23:22

DD calls every new baby doll or soft toy that comes into the house Lola. So I can guess what her answer would be

midwifeync · 18/08/2020 23:34

Dc6
Girl: Bea
Boy: Noooooo, I don't want it!!!!
Grin
