I have gone off the chosen name. No joke. I am truly stuck.

you missed
Beatrice
Phoebe

both pretty

pgwithnumber3 · 29/01/2009 22:18

I need Lulumama to come over and rub my feet and give me tea and sympathy (and a huge slap).

Did you go all shitty and pathetic just before you had your last babies?

dizzydixies · 29/01/2009 22:19

no we're both fine upstanding women who wouldn't dream of such a thing!!

well, kitty maybe but I was all shitty and pathetic the whole way through

pgwithnumber3 · 29/01/2009 22:19

Beatrice - Princess
Phoebe - Friends

sweetkitty · 30/01/2009 08:13

Melissa?

Fimbo · 30/01/2009 10:35

I only pop up on these threads occasionally and I too can't wait for the birth announcement.

Sweetkitty are you pregnant with no4?

sweetkitty · 30/01/2009 11:51

OH NO FIMBO

DD3 is only 6 months, never say never for number 4

plonker · 30/01/2009 11:57

How about Lucy? Would go lovely with your other dd's names.

Or
Annabel
Clara
Emily
Georgia
Ella
Eleanor
Alexandra

plonker · 30/01/2009 11:57

FWIW I agree with you re Elissa - would constantly be spelt incorrectly ...

KatB · 30/01/2009 18:55

Rowan - I didn't like it when I first heard it but it's grown on me.

My list for imaginary DD3 is

Imogen
Claudia (sigh, was on list for last 2 DDs but bloody DH hates it will guilt trip him during labour next time)
Elizabeth
Anna
Marianne
Sophia
Amanda

Alice is very similar to Ellisa, but more "spellable" and less complicated.

TheFirstLiffey · 30/01/2009 19:43

Alyssa is bogan, totally bogan.

Claudia is gorgeous. ALso like Beatrice as suggested by somebody further up the thread.

Juliet and Annabel are two in the same style bracket as Claudia and Beatrice. Phoebe and Flora are also lovely.

Does the name have really unusual, or just not super popular.

Odette and Arianna are a bit try-hard imo. I agree about Odette being a deep south USA name, has that kind of ohmyGod eye-rolly feel about it; like Latrice or Lettice.

pgwithnumber3 · 30/01/2009 20:14

What does bogan mean Liffey?!

Claudia is probably a massive contender atm.

Just don't want the name to be super popular, although I love DD1's name (Grace) I am so fed up of hearing it.

Arianna is definitely out, I have been saying it today and it just sounds like I am launching a ship.

KatB - I love Rowan (more for a boy though) but it doesn't go with our surname - Rowan Owens!

Alice too twee I think.

Romilly

beautiful name but didn't go with our surname

Phoenix · 30/01/2009 20:39

What about Morgan for a girl? If this baby is a girl she will be Morgan Grace.

loobylu3 · 30/01/2009 21:18

Oh dear- I thought you were all set last time with Elissa. (I have a Maia for whom I considered the name Grace and am also expecting no.3 v soon who also has no name as yet!)
For what it's worth, I'm not too mad on Elissa- much prefer Alice.
From your list, I think Claudia is lovely and would definitely go with that if I were you.
I also really love some of the other suggestions and think they go well with your two:

Beatrice/ Beatrix
Phoebe
Violet
Charlotte
Evelyn/Eve
Sofia
Iris
Lucinda

Let us know what you decide!

pgwithnumber3 · 30/01/2009 21:33

Camille is also probably top of the list. It has been our favourite name for years (was second choice for DD1) and I just think it is such a classic name.

Dizzy will be pleased.

sweetkitty · 30/01/2009 21:39

Middle name?

pgwithnumber3 · 30/01/2009 21:47

Are you trying to blow my head off sweetkitty?! Never mind a middle name for now, this child needs a first name!

For what its worth, what goes with Camille?
