No, I'm not up the duff yet, but dh and I are discussing any future lo names. We've one for a boy, but none for girls as we can't agree. I love Stella, but DH isn't keen because of Tenesee Williams and Artois, lol! What do you reckon to it?

Just think of the nutty woman from Eastenders. Sorry.

My LO is called Stella and I love it. A few people have asked if we named her after the beer (hahahah never heard that one before) but weirdly more people say, oh, as in Stella McCartney/ the perfume. Though why anyone would name their child after Stella McCartney is beyond me. It is also I think the name of the Sunday Telegraph magazine which is less than ideal!

This might sound a bit odd but it's very satisfying to say again and again (eg. in songs, when you're trying to lull them to sleep).

It also means that you get gifts with stars on.
