Genuinely considering Cinderella

[muffinmaclay]

my 2 dd's love the disney princesses - am I suffering from over-exposure do you think? as the name Cinderella now seems quite an acceptable option for a girl - shortened to Cindy or Ella.

nutter

I knew a woman called Cindy, and she so didn't suit the name. unless baby grows up to be lovely, and able to speak to animals, it may be a bad idea.

lol!!!! Top wind-up muffin!

it's not you, it's those evil hormones. also way toooo much pink and princesses (i feel for you). you need a disney detox.

the madness will pass.

there is always princess consuela bananahammock if you are truly stuck for names

It's horrible. And even if it wasn't the fact that you have two other daughters.....How would they feel being called the ugly sisters?

My Grandad knows this story off by heart, he used to tell it to us when we were little. He did all the voices and everything!

Re Disnet names, a neighbour of my Mum worked in the local registry office in our town and knew of at least one poor wee baby girl who's parents named her Pocahontas. Surname was McGinty.

Poor child.

Why would you want to be cruel to your baby?

I just asked my 5 year old dd what she thought of calling a baby Cinderella.

She looked confused and said 'No, it's not a good idea because it means you're getting muddled up between real things, like babies, and not real things, like DVDs.'

LOL, Boco.
She's great

OH MY GOD!!!

My dads cousin was in hospital with the woman who named her baby pochahontas mcginty!!!!!!!!!!

I thought that was particularly astute of her. Although her baby doll is called Tony, so maybe she's keeping it a bit too real.

Why, Oh why, oh why, oh why

I suffered with this sydrome in my last pregnancy when I fell in love with Tinkerbell and Electra!

Wait for hormones to settle then make a descision!

I think it's GORGEOUS!

and I would laugh if someone I knew used it...

LOL sorry!

JK1, Tink is my daughter's name (except it's not on her birth certificate )

I wonder if anyone read my story

Tinkerbelle is cute! I think is fine to go with theese kinda names you just have to be really confident in your choice and be prepared to face your critics!

It's not you that will have to deal with critics though jk1, it's the child.

Tinkerbellesmum is she known as tinkerbell at school?

She's not at school yet (22 months) but she is known as that where ever she is, it's interchangable with her name - so only people who hear me call it her think it really is (although someone on one message board really did think it was her name).

I love the doll called Tony!

My daughter is called Cindabella

YOU WILL REGRET IT.

It will be cute for about two weeks ,she will always resent you for calling her a wacky name ,she will in all likelihood shorten it or change it.

Imagine :

The taunts at school and college

people laughing then saying "no really whats your name?"

Noone ever giving her a job after looking at her application .

Noone ever ever taking her serioulsy.

Sorry if I am been harsh but I am hoping you have pregnancy hormones today or winding us all up.

When my ds was little he was obsessed with teh book and I had to read it every night and he insisted on calling it Serandello so that should put you off!

Do you remember the woman who called her newborn Lala ? Just because her 2 year old loved the telletubbies !

I have an idea anyway get the lo's a hamster or something and let them call that cinderella .

Ella is nice for a baby though.
