Girl:
Jess (not Jessica, most definitely just Jess)
Amber
Isla

Also like Lexie & Amelie but DD1&2's names end in ee sound, one is ie the other is ey - wonder if it would be too much to have another ee sound ???

Boy:
Jude

Don't like anything else for a boy so am pretty stumped there

fimbo - where we are from theres a small island called Ailsa Craig v closeby so that ruled out Ailsa for us. Oh and it's the name of the local mental hospital i.e. if you do that you will end up in Ailsa! Oh also name of DD1's nursery. You could say it's well used.

@ Tim

Hi SK Isla goes well with our surname but would defo need a middle name as DD's both have idle names .... that's opening a whole new can of worms though ...

Did you convince DP on the pink P&T yet ? Have you seen the new one out ? Saw it in Toysrus book at the weekend.

dizzy - you HAVE to find out if your having another DD you are my cosmic twin lol

FoghornLeghorn · 11/03/2008 14:24

Dizzy what are you leaning more towards ?

We didn't find out with DD's but a so excited to know this time, can't wait !

foggy - he's already having a fit at £360 for a P&T theres no way he would go for £500 odds, couldn't justify it really DD2 will be 2 1/2 when this one is born.

notnowbernard · 11/03/2008 14:24

Like all the girl names (Isla is very pretty)

Not keen on Jude

Fimbo · 11/03/2008 14:25

Lol SK. Because we live in England now, not many people would realise about Ailsa Craig also our surname begins with a C so not really feasible.

Plus dh has had the snip...............

ScoobyDYSONDoo · 11/03/2008 14:26

Like all your names but not Lexie, love Jude

dizzydixies · 11/03/2008 14:26

*sweetykitty8 you are BANNED from all other name threads until you narrow some down for yourself lol

foggy I have no idea, I have 2dds and all 3 of my pg's have been very different so I can't even guess at what this is

there are so many good reasons to find out but only one not to find out and thats to keep me going through labour

dizzydixies · 11/03/2008 14:27

how could people NOT like Lexie - sob
it means sparkling ffs lol

sweetkitty · 11/03/2008 14:29

I know dizzy it's easy though telling other people my opinions than coming up with a name for DD3

one of you is bound to have a boy, I thought this one was a boy but looking back the cravings and everything at the start were the same

fimbo - oh you could have Ailsa then theres no way I could though, doesn't go with surname either

bluenosesaint · 11/03/2008 14:36

Foghornleghorn - are you me? My first two dd's have names ending in the 'ee' sound and i didn't want another 'ee' incase of overload, lol.

Max and Zach were the boys on our shortlist if dd3 would have been a boy.

And Jess is my dogs name

dizzydixies · 11/03/2008 14:37

but I am a weegie, I just defected lol

dizzydixies · 11/03/2008 14:38

Fimbo · 11/03/2008 14:38

I like Lexie.

Very Monarch of the Glen . Can you tell I miss Scotland?

dizzydixies · 11/03/2008 14:47

are you pg too fimbo? why not join us on the scotland ante natal thread - you can be an honourary member!!!

Fimbo · 11/03/2008 14:59

No, I am not. . It would be a minor miracle as dh has had the snip.

Perhaps I could just pretend and join the Scottish thread!

dizzydixies · 11/03/2008 15:01

dizzydixies · 11/03/2008 15:02
