What would you name your children if you had them again?

[teapot29]

Just wondering if people would change their babies/childrens names if they had them again. Or any names you regret using or not using!

I didn't get to use Clementine. I think I would give them both an additional middle name but I love their names and wouldn't change.

Mine all have unusual names and no regrets they really suit them. Lots of names I’m sad I couldn’t used but was due to husband veto: Dorothy, Daisy, Matilda, Tallulah, Delilah, Clementine, Polly, Luella, Clover

I wouldn’t change my choices but if I had more I would use Juno for a girl. No idea for a boy.

If I had not had to consider my husband’s opinions they would have been Susannah and Catherine

I like all my (adult) dcs' names still, so if you were talking about turning the clock back, I'd stick with them.

I guess fashions move on so I'd probably have some different names on the list if I were young now, having dc.

Yes, but of course we hadn't come across that gem at that point!

No, I like my dc's names.

She's still quite new so probably Jemima which is turning out to be quite the marmite name irl!

Mine are adults now but I'd choose the same names again.

@Giraffehaver Jemima is adorable. Keep it!

I love my daughters names, I’d use the same names again.

If I had ever had a son though, I would have used Jasper.

I would stick with the Harry that I have, I remember having Olivia as my top girl choice and that’s changed, I like Mary for a girl.

Would probably keep to the same names.

I like Mary too.

I’d keep the names we used. Still love them!

I am sad that we didn’t get to use Hallie if we’d had another girl.

I love my daughters name but if I had her again I would pick Jimberley

I’d keep the same two names still like them and both my adult children have said they like their names , would of not given them their dads surname tho

Oo good question. Tricky. I love both my children's names for the reasons I chose them in the first place.

However one has revealed itself to have the potential for quite a bit of teasing which is horrible, and the other gets mispronounced all the time. Something I just didn't see coming as they're named after someone I know and I'd only ever heard it said one way before I bequeathed it to my own child and spent 75% of the time correcting people on how to say it 🤦🏼‍♀️
