So what would your younger DC be named if you had allowed your older DC their choice?

[EachPeachPearMum]

DC2 is going to be named 'Abracadabra' according to DD (2.6)

Ds has actually named Ds2 (unborn). I asked him if he preferred Bartholomew or Toby and he said, "I like James." Since dh and I can't think of anything we like better, James it is.

DS1 (called Thomas) wants to call DS3 Jerry.

"Tom, Jerry, time for tea......." Methinks not.

NatalieJane stranger things have happened. My first boyfriend Bill had a brother called Ben and two other brothers called Tom and..... Jerry.

Seriously.

DD wanted to call DS Rainbow (whether he'd been a girl or boy).

I guess that would have been fine if we were hippies who wore tye-dye clothing and lived in a teepee

My little brother would have been MichaelCycle had our then 3yo brother got his way.

DD (5) says a good name for the baby sister she wishes me to produce would be Heart Pony.

'Heart Pony' - very noce

OT- you're back then? Good travels?

Suggestions by DS 1+2 were:

Trolley
Underpants - in line with the general toilet humour thing they had have going on.
Jack

Just for the record: none of the above were chosen.

DD1 wanted to name DS 'Moses'.

DD3 however would have been 'Shrek' if DS had his way!

i am expecting no 3. Dd1 (4) wants to call the new baby Leaf Pie.

Dunno why.

I only have 1 dd and not planning anymore, but almost all of dd's dolls and teddies are called 'Bellybutton' so I could take a guess at what her suggestion would be....

My uncle was allowed to choose my dad's middle name - he chose Clive

My dad was then allowed to choose his younger brother's middle name. He chose Preston!

eachpeachpearmum - we are back, thanks for asking. Tired (me) and still somewhat muddy (dd)! Travels very very wonderful indeed and I'm looking for part time work so I can afford to learn to drive and get a living vehicle next year!

DS1 wanted to call DS2 Thomas the Tank Engine. We were planning to call him Thomas and were trying to get him used to it prior to the birth. As DS1 got so hung up on calling him TTE rather than just Thomas, we changed that to his middle name. When asked what DS2's long name is, he still says TTE in the middle!

DS1 wanted me to call DS2 Barney.
He was obsessed by the big purple dinosaur at the time.

according to dd1 and dd2, dd3 was going to be Twinkle

I di hear of a friends DC who wanted to call the new baby computer.

Polly (like Angelina Ballerina's baby sister). Not yet conceived btw.

Dd1 wanted to call dd2 tesco or steering wheel.
funnily enough we went with something else...

ds has not yet been told about no. 2 as is early days but we have two very close friends due in October so he has been talking about "his" baby coming for several months now and that it will be a boy call Eggwood. Will not be putting this on our shortlist.

My dd2 gave dd3 middle name of Echo, after Greek mythological name. It's spot on, regardless of other people's perceptions.

i was meant to be Bethany but my brother (who DID NOT WANT A GIRL) saw me and told my parents I was to be called Jessica.

Guess what, im called Jessica!

My son wanted Bob for a boy, Wendy For a girl and scopp n muck for any other kids that mite happen along the way!!!

Well, at least he didnt want to call one spud

LOL

spelling Scoop not scopp

My son is 3.5 years old and I am currently expecting no.2, DH asked him what he'd like his sibling to be called...

He came up with BUS.

I don;t think we'll be using that name....

Hi curently only a few weeks preggers but already looking at names. dh did suggest clive i told him i was having a baby not a 40 year old builder ds suggest steve for a boy and booby for a girl don't think so somehow.
