I think a significant minority of parents just call the baby 'baby' for so long that it then becomes hard to think of a name - so they push the thought away - until you 'have' to have a name and then it's all a bit of a problem! The other reason for not having a name is if the baby is ill and/or very early I suspect some people find it hard to think of a name because of all the fears they have for their child. Of course for others naming an ill child is all the more important. I hope that illness isn't the reason that this little girl hasn't had a name up till now - but if it is - hope she's doing well now.

Ada is very oldfashioned and Macey is very trendy imho.

Not sure Edie or Ada goes with Macey.

Freya or Fleur or Ruby or Elise might be better.

I think Ella May goes the 'best' with Macey.

What name do you think your little girl would suit best?

Posy is a victorian nickname for josephine, as in the book ballet shoes or the flumps!

missmollymoo · 25/07/2008 20:13

Can't believe it hetty37, but i think posy might be starting to grow on me! DH has said absolutely no more though!

janeite · 25/07/2008 20:16

Posy is gorgeous - I wanted it for dd2 but dp was totally against it.

Is the registration office open on a Saturday?

bergentulip · 25/07/2008 20:25

On another thread someone just mentioned the name 'Mabel' - I think that's pretty cool!

Sorry I have just realised that I am late by one day.

What did you call her in the end?

solo · 27/07/2008 12:31

Am I the only one that thinks Ada is an ugly name?

shirleyghostman · 27/07/2008 12:35

Solo - I don't think it is an ugly name but having said that I always think of Les Dawson.
