He must be a fonejacker fan? The great Terry Tibbs....

Italian marble fireplace, talk to me....

terry: swotty, you can't, you just can't.get DH onto the thread and we'll talk (shout/cajole/order) him out of it.
esme fab. cecily fab (just don't think about the lisp thing - agree grim prospect) yes one of the atonement girls is cecily i am sure.

My dad was totally NOT a "little geezer and handy in the house" though; so not all Terences are like that! I always thought it was a bit "boys' grammar then art school" but maybe that's just because I'm thinking of Terence Stamp?

terence conran might also fit your billing jane ....

Terence Donovan, father of Jason.....

Terry is so awful that even if Esme were my all-time, dream name for a child, I'd have to sacrifice it order to avoid the chance that I ended up with a Terrence! Sorry.

terry is grim and will likely get shortened to tez no girl's name, however lovely, is worth that!

Oh Betty. I came onto this thread not realising it was you. Please tell your DH that you cannot call a baby Terry. I am sorry to any other Terrys out there (fine if you are a chocolate orange, or an adult, but not a small child).

Now I do know your surname. And of course your other DD's name. Esme goes well with both. Terry does not. Nor does Terrence. No.

Just plain no.

BTW, I know an Esme, she is gorgeous (in fact she looks like I think/hope my DD will look in a year) and so it makes me like the name even more.

'fine if you are a chocolate orange'

(btw Egg, i was randomly checking out your profile earlier for no good reason and must say that you are gorgeous!)

HAHAHA! It was camera trickery I assure you! But thankyou .

love the name Esme but terry / terence noooooooo!

(egg ,as i am a nosey kinda gal lol, i have peeped at your profile too ,OMG you have the most lush children !! )

I agree with the general opinion! love Freya, really nt keen on Terry!
