Thing is Jamie Oliver has two daughters called Daisy and Poppy, and I don't want to look like a copycat. The only other girls name I've seriously considered is Saffron, but maybe it sounds a bit posh? I can't get on with Violet, because it just reads like 'Violent' to me, lol.
I've already anticipated the cow jokes, but there'll be three years between them and I don't think it will be a problem. I've also been buying clover margarine for weeks now to see if I am able to put myself out of favour with the name - I still like it!
Now also considering Sol for a boy. Nice, sunny meaning.
Dragonbutter (nice username by the way) you have come up with some gorgeous names, but problem is my surname is Wilkinson, which is very boring and makes some slightly unusual names sound downright ridiculous. Doesn't lend itself to being very quirky unfortunately.
If we have a boy I'd love to give him the middle name 'Danger' because it would just be great for him when he gets to be a teenager and pulling girls. You can just imagine the chat up lines! But once again, no! Could seriously backfire.
I love Tor, but I suggesed it to OH, and he just said something about 'taking a tor', (tour) in a very northern accent. Sorry, can't get away with that one.
Is it possible to over think the name your child is going to live with day in, day out?! Anyway, I thought of Clover before I even made the connection between them both being similar plants - it's just that once I made that connection, it just sounded perfect in my head.
Rain sounds lovely, but I think we see enough of that around here anyway.
Oooh! It's all very difficult - but it does stop me thinking about that awkward squeezing a baby out issue that is looming. Due on 17th April, and not looking forward to the giving birth thing - would much rather sit here and try and think of unusual names. (the other option is to stick my fingers in my ears and go 'La-la-la, it's not gonna happen!') - but it so is.....
