I was due dc4 today and still no sign but the closer it gets to christmas the more my dp is doubting our boys choice of name. It is Christian, which i absolutely adore, but do you think as he gets older people will tease him for being born at christmas and being called Christian? We dont actually know if we are having a boy, but no christmas issues with girls name!

i adore the name. and actually it happens to be my brother's name. he was born 12/16 and i have never heard him complain once about the christmas correlation.

congratulations on your arrival...

DS was due on 14th Dec, but born 30th Dec.
Like bettythebauble, I was going to call ds after one of the magi. (Caspar, Balthazar or Melchoir.) Probably Caspar. Love it! Also liked Gabriel, and Djibril (the Arabic version.)
He got none of the above, but was named after my Father & his lot in the end. We still regret not calling him Caspar actually.
