Not keen on Mae. Holly is lovely.

belgo · 23/05/2008 13:40

yes but is Holly also strange if she's not a winter baby?

May is better. Holly is quite nice.

snickersnack · 23/05/2008 13:42

I love Holly, really love it. Personally not a fan of Mae/May but they do sound good together.

belgo · 23/05/2008 13:43

yes you're right (should know this as have a holly tree in my garden)

learningallthetime · 23/05/2008 13:44

Everyone will think she was born at christmas

LynetteScavo · 23/05/2008 13:45

I really don't get the baby name threads.
You've decided on a name. Brilliant, use it.
Pesonaly, I don't like it, but you probably wouldn,t like my DD's name.

learningallthetime · 23/05/2008 13:48

The op wants peoples opinions, thats up to her, if you don't 'get it' then ignore it. You don't have to post.

I like it but people will expect her to have a Christmas birthday, not that it matters. I prefer Mae spelt May.

LynetteScavo · 23/05/2008 13:53

Holly Mae. I don't like it at all.

Prickly, and I prefer the spelling May.

Is that better, learningallthe time?

AbbeyA · 23/05/2008 13:53

I think people come on to get an honest opinion, friends are likely to be polite and are not likely to give it straight.

noddyholder · 23/05/2008 13:53

I like holly and may but together a bit dukes of hazzard?

LynetteScavo · 23/05/2008 13:57

Yes Checkers, I will be going over to the depression thead to tell them to pull themselves together. WTF?

A very insensative post if you don't know someones personal history.

learningallthetime · 23/05/2008 14:01

Will you be popping over to depression shortly to tell them to "pull themselves together"?

Chequers PMSL!

AbbeyA · 23/05/2008 14:03

I have been on threads where you expect a bit of argument-but OP only asked if you like a name!!!
