Hi Everyone,

We have finally narrowed our shortlist down to two names for DC1:

Amelia Hannah or Olivia Hannah

Surname is Korn

Would really appreciate your opinions!

Hope it's not a boy then . I like Olivia but initials would be OK. Would that be a problem?

Hailsk · 18/02/2009 14:48

Hehe!! We have a boys name so should be ok!
Its either OK or A Korn!!

Oh yes, I hadn't realised it would be A Korn - that's really funny!!! Olivia it is then

SoupDragon · 18/02/2009 14:51

Um... neither I'm afraid. Too many a endings.

Hailsk · 18/02/2009 14:51

Thanks for your help

(I would avoid A Korn though )

Hailsk · 20/02/2009 16:36

I quite like Harriet too for a middle name for both...do you think this sounds better?

I like both your suggestions...but would probably go for Olivia Hannah Korn - the acorn connection is just a little too much!

Hailsk · 20/02/2009 16:45

Mmmm, that's the only thing, I was worried about it initially, but then how often would we use A Korn? Its difficult - I would feel terrible if the child was bullied because of their initials
Anyway thanks for your help x

Both nice names, but would probably go for Olivia by a whisker, just because I like it a bit more

CantSleepWontSleep · 20/02/2009 16:47

Amelia Harriet Korn.

Hailsk · 20/02/2009 16:56

Thanks Mrs Mattie...with Harriet or Hannah?

I'd say olivia Harriet as with Hannah there are too many a sounds at the end iyswim?

I like Amelia Harriet Korn and think A Korn is lovely, it will bring a smile to anyone's face.

helsbels4 · 20/02/2009 18:48

......and from little acorns, mighty oaks will grow!!!! I think it's actually kind of sweet

Leo9 · 20/02/2009 19:02

I agree the A Korn thing is nothing to worry about - it's cute.

Amelia is much the better name; personally I can't like Olivia at all, and it's very common round 'ere!

LaDiDaDi · 21/02/2009 18:46

I would vote for Amelia Harriet Korn.

I prefer Harriet to Hannah, really like it actually but there's no chance of me using it as dp doesn't like it.
