Name for baby!

Hey so I had my baby 6 days ago and she still hasn't got a name 😩 my husband has completely ignored my whole pregnancy and not spoke about baby once etc which has been really hard to cope with but he hasn't paid the baby or me any attention since I have had baby girl either! I have said this too him several times but he just carry on the same. You wouldn't think we actually planned to have this baby would you. She is our 4th baby and our 4th girl!

I have asked and asked and tried to make him talk about names for our baby daughter but everything that could be such a happy time is just full of stress and also hurt at how he has and is being.

Anyway I can't stand my baby daughter not having a name! But finding it really hard to choose on my own, so was looking for people's views etc....

I've narrowed it down to names and middle names I like

Penelope (would be called Penny) Ronnie Faith

Darcie Ronnie Faith

Lucie Ronnie Faith

Or just

Ronnie Faith

What one does everyone think? I love them all which is making it harder lol

Sorry for the long post haha

Congratulations. I like Penny, lovely name x

BuffaloCauliflower · 19/09/2020 16:52

I’d be more concerned about the fact your husband sounds abusive? Why has he ignored your whole pregnancy? That’s not normal and not ok.

THATbasicrebelBITCH · 19/09/2020 16:52

Your husband sounds nice

I don't like a first name and a middle name to end in the same sound so i will go Ronnie Faith

SleepingStandingUp · 19/09/2020 16:53

I like Penny or Darcie.

I'm sorry your DP is a total dick. Is he talking to your other children or just the baby he's ignoring? Was this from when you found out you were pregnant or since he knew it was a girl?

mylittleavalon · 19/09/2020 16:59

Hope you are ok OP. Is there anyway you can get help with your situation? It sounds difficult, is there anyone you can talk to? Penelope is lovely Flowers

Flappingflamingo · 19/09/2020 17:09

Penny or lucy 😍

Falcone · 19/09/2020 17:10

Penny or Lucy, beautiful names .

P.s LTB.

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 19/09/2020 17:12

I like Penelope best. Not keen on Ronnie Faith though. I would just go for Penelope Faith.

How did he react with your other children? He sounds like an arse!

Benjispruce2 · 19/09/2020 17:13

Lucy, Penny or Darcy, with a y not ie.

Quizeerascal · 19/09/2020 17:26

Is Ronnie a family name? I think Lucie, Darcie or Penelope are all lovely options as a first names and Ronnie and Faith go well as middle names. Please seek support from family/friends/health professionals/a charity it sounds like a difficult situation Flowers

Benjispruce2 · 19/09/2020 17:28

Ronnie just conjures up an old man in a flat cap!

Babyshine2020 · 19/09/2020 17:30

I love Pennie (prefer the Y spelling) but I think all the names with Ronnie are too much (too similar), but I also love Faith

Confusemum · 19/09/2020 17:40

Thank you all, one of the middle names being Ronnie is because I lost my grandad last year who I was very close too, he was my rock. So her having Ronnie in her name either as a first name or middle name means the world to me xx

The second middle name Faith also has so much meaning to me as I have lost 9 babies but never gave up faith for the babies I am so very lucky to have xx

Thank you all for your concern too, yes it is hard with my husband and am currently trying to seek help x

Benjispruce2 · 19/09/2020 17:49

Ronnie Faith just on it’s own is perfect, I don’t think it need anything else. Especially your reasons for using those two names x

micc · 19/09/2020 18:02

I think I just like Ronnie Faith too x

So sad your going through a hard time OP. I hope you get the help you need asap. I also hope you have people around you at this time that care about you and help you x

Thistlegirl4 · 19/09/2020 18:10

Penelope is fine.

I'm just sorry to hear you have are having a very difficult time at what should be a happy time. Take care of yourself x

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 19/09/2020 18:12

I’m sorry op,but It sounds like he’s disappointed with a 4th girl.
Ronnie Faith is a good edgy name.

FluffyEggsontoast · 19/09/2020 18:26

How about Aurora nickname Ronnie

Did your husband want a boy do you think. You mention it's your 4th girl. Wouldn't excuse his behaviour mind you

FluffyEggsontoast · 19/09/2020 18:26

Penelope nickname Penny is really lovely and Lucy is one of my fav names but I don't like the Lucie spelling and feel it ruins the name a bit

Firebird83 · 19/09/2020 18:42

Penelope

Hope you can get help with your situation x

Bootsray · 19/09/2020 18:49

Ronnie Faith - love it!

ButterflyOfFreedom · 19/09/2020 18:51

Darcie Ronnie Faith

Oneandabean · 19/09/2020 19:30

Penelope is my favourite it’s so pretty.

Just name her without his input he sounds ridiculous. Seems like he’s having a tantrum about not having a boy or something. Hope things settle soon
