Guess My Friend's Baby Name

31 replies

hiyahen · 22/07/2021 19:49

I'm very happy for my friend who is pregnant. She's keeping the name of her baby boy between herself and her husband until he's here. And me and my husband are having a little guessing game between us of what the name might be.

She mentioned that it's a name that isn't too traditional but more on the traditional side than not. And it's going to be a popular short version of what could be a longer name. She also wanted to have an Edward but call him Teddy although her husband vetoed it, if that gives you any clues to her train of thought.

What would your guess be?

I was thinking something like Freddie or Finn. Husband thinks Leo.

It's just for a bit of fun between my husband and myself (and a few strangers on the internet!). Don't worry I won't be pressuring her to tell or saying any of my guesses to her Smile

Loving some of the guesses on here!
