A few months ago I read a comment in a baby names thread that made me laugh so much - it was a ridiculous made-up name that a pregnant woman was determined to call her DC (can't remember what it actually was). She said luckily her DH talked her out of it because after the hormones has died down, she couldn't believe she had considered it!

So, does anyone else have any names they wanted to use during pregnancy but were relieved they didn't?

Clementine. Lovely name but my red haired daughter dodged quite a bullet. She already had one red haired sibling and I really was throwing caution to the wind.

No, I'm 34 weeks today and nothing mad, or so I think, has floated across my brain so far.

Oh no I lie, I thought the name Olum was cool, it is supposedly related to my surname and a High King of Munster back in the day. My dsis was like ahh...... no. You can't call your child Golum from LOTR. I wasn't serious about it though, I swear 🤓

The character in Clueless is named after the singer though so they would have been, in a way!
