If you gave birth today (hypothetically) what do you think you would name your baby?

I think if I had a girl she would be Monroe and boy would be Atlas

Moira after my beautiful mum who died during the summer. Not sure about a boy's name, Sean maybe.

Sorry for your loss lovely, Moira is a lovely name🙂x

I’m 32 weeks pregnant so hoping this doesn’t tempt fate but our current favourites are Charlotte (Lottie) and Christopher (Kit). I love Tristan but my husband is not on board at all!

Sophia and Alexander

We planned to use Amelia or Darcy for a girl (we had a boy). I’m actually a bit over Amelia now, so maybe Darcy or Madeline? Leonora is also a cool name. Maybe Lea for short.

Also like Sophia but both my SILs are called Sophie so I wouldn’t use it.

Boys are a nightmare. DS was called Baby for six weeks because we couldn’t agree, and even on the way to the register office DH was trying to get me to name him Alxndr with no vowels (I did not name him that).

Atlas?!

No.

I would name my children something they could use as an adult.

William, Oliver, Henry.
Elizabeth, Olivia, Imogen

Atlas is a silly name. Sorry OP

This is very rude 🙄

I like Atlas and more importantly, so does OP

We are TTC at the moment so I'm browsing name's a bit....

Currently love Clove for a girl also love Clara but think that is going to get popular soon.

Short of ideas for boys, but did see Dale on a list and thought it could do with a comeback.
