Mine would have to be...

Cocoa for a girl.

Clementine. Well, it’s actually just an ‘easy peeler’ and could possibly be a satsuma but that’s not as pretty.
Otherwise I’ll be going all Gwyneth Paltrow and naming my baby Apple

Malted Milk Biscuit. Hyphenate the Malted Milk part and the child is instantly posh!!

Has a certain ring to it.

@Soubriquet

Ah but what did you have on your toast?

Maybe you could get variety from that?

It would be a choice of Marmite or Lemon Curd (I always have one slice of each savoury then sweet) ... maybe twins (boy / girl) would work with those names 😂

Apricot

(trying to use up the THREE boxes of Apricot Wheats I somehow accumulated and which DS1 has 'gone off' - after refusing to eat anything else for months and me having to search the four corners of the globe to get them during lockdown ... ahem, sorry for that)

Cheese. I’ll put Cheddar Crumpet on the birth certificate though, just to make things annoying for them with a different official name.

Well I’m currently pregnant and just eaten a ritz cracker for nausea, so...

Boy - Ritz
Girl - Sunflower (oil from the ingredients)
I could probably also tenuously change barley from the ingredients to Bailey, which could work for either.

I’ll suggest these to DH at lunch Grin

Meet my twins, Kimchi and Kombucha. Grin

(I swear I'm not making this up, I stopped by a market stall to buy apples and on impulse bought a box of 'vegan mezze' which consisted mostly of kimchi, and a kombucha (mainly because I had no idea what it was...)
