When I was pregnant I was going to call my baby boy Rufus or Summer if it was a girl

[charliecat]

what did you nearly call yours?

ds1 would have been Rosie I rthinki - but I just knew he would be a boy
ds2 would have been martha
ds3 (currently still in tummy) would have been Molly I think

DS1 was also nearly Joe

DS1 was nearly Max
DS2 was nearly Leo or Dexter

I really really wanted to call ds2 Indiana but didnt have the guts

Hatrick Did you have your baby already?
Congratulations!
I remember thinking how lovely your girls names are on previous threads. What did you call your ds in the end??

DS1 was nearly River
DS2 was nearly Sawyer

Sawyer.......sawyer.....

ds1 would have been Alexander - which I felt was OK but not mad about - if we had not hit on his name. ds2 was nearly Leo.

If I had had girls, ds1 would have been Sophia and ds2 Helena.

yes, DH felt that our children shouldn't be named after fictional characeters I've got a crush on.
don't see why not???

oh also toyed with kitty for dd

DS1 got the name that was coming to him; both DDs were going to be Margaret Clare, but the name fit neither; DD3 was to be Verity Rose or Honor Elisabeth, but turned out to be- DS 2, who, for the past 7 years, was supposed to be Peter Francis, but is looking more and more like an Edmund Gregory/Edmund James/Edmund Hugh. I guess we'll know for sure by January

Toyed with Krista & Honor for both DD1 & 2

Haven't got boys but would have been either Ivan, Alex or Fraser

henry / henrietta (doesn't go with surname). Raven for DD1 - really glad we didn't - woud have been so embarrassing!
