Moth for a girl?

[RainyWednesday]

??

I know a Tabitha

I agree. Great middle name and perfectly justified as a tribute to your grandmother.

I know a girl with the middle name 'Moon' and it gets used within the family. Really lovely. Suits her.

I'm glad someone thought Shakespeare and not phobias! I was thinking of it originally as a middle name

I know a Tabitha - really don't like the name, sorry

I'm not sharing my boys' names :p (well, I was going to, but DH said no!)

I did suggest Snout for a boy way back there...although I think I meant Snug... what, not interested?

Quite right. I wouldn't dream of sharing names with anyone on MN. Especially when you've already named you child so it's too late.

No moth is a really cool second name and particularly lovely with the family connection. I would utterly go with that.

and what is wrong with an insect name?

check out my profile - i am for real you know!

But Butterfly did she go to school with that name? I always think that if people can get through the school bit, they'll be really glad they have an unusual name. It seems to be the school bit which people are phobic about, which is sad as school is only a small part of life in the grand scheme of things.

Spidermama this bun is still firmly in the oven and we won't know the flavour for ooh another ten hours and ten minutes

I was thinking of putting our favourite boy's name on here but DH would rather we decide for ourselves

Honeysuckle Weeks has managed OK (mind you she went to Roedean...)

With "Clothes" as a middle name?

Even "Clove" would do actually.

No Roedean here - though if it helps our kids will probably be teased for wearing secondhand clothes, not being allowed a telly and having wood-burning central heating

(and for perspective, their dad is the Jethro who's name was so roundly trashed yesterday!)

duchesse surely her middle name would have to be Balls?

Are you having an elective then?

All the very best in that case. I find boys names tricky but I have three boys all with, um, uncommon names. I would be terrified to reveal them to the MN massive.

fab rainy!!

No, 20 week (or 22+4 but who's counting? ) scan tomorrow (so hope LO's feeling cooperative/exhibitionist!)

And if your ultrasonographer doesn't get it wrong...

Oh I see. Scan. Gotcha.

well I thought Shakespeare too, even though I have a moth phobia

I LIKE the name Jethro too
