To go with Charlie.

Baby isn't due until March but we just can't decide on any names and it's exhausting us both a bit...

Oh what a shame...I did 1471 but didn't recognise the no. so ignored it. Doh!!!

Sounds like you had a lovely day. I wonder if we'll get to meet up before Xmas...have you got any xmas shopping to do anywhere? I have no idea what to get Frances yet.

I hope your poor babies get better soon, it's horrible when they're like that isn't it. I hope you're getting your sleep too.

I can meet up with you, would be nice if L&F can come too, maybe the first week of the holidays, the Tues/Weds? Just EG or London?

Sossy · 11/12/2008 01:39

That sounds cool to me, I'll give you a call soon!

I don't mind where we go. I'm excited like a big kid. I've got lots of Q's but I'll save them for the phone.

Sorry thread starter!

goodasgoldfrankincenceandmyrhh · 11/12/2008 01:43

Yes Sossy must chat soon and sorry to the thread starter, although

And enjoy your little baby girl when she comes, how sweet. That is to the OP, not Sossy.

josephine

Sossy · 11/12/2008 01:57

Josephine is one of my favs too. Even though it doesn't begin with F.

slim22 · 11/12/2008 02:20

BTW I like Holly but Charlie and Holly don't sound good together.

Harriet?

DH and I both love the name Gloria but we never had the nerve... we both had a friend-of-our-Mum's type "Auntie Gloria"

But still think it is a beautiful name

As above - we have a Charlie and are thinking of having Mabel if our next is a DD, second on the list is probably Molly.

feetheart · 21/12/2008 08:44

No-one's mentioned Tessa yet.
In nearly 6 years have only come across little old ladies called Tessa but it suits DD SO well
