despite having a relatively lengthy list dp is not keen on most of them and some have even been crossed off

current list is something like this:

Richey
Beau
Nico
Lars
Robin
Levi

so any ideas of a similar ilk much appreciated. I'm going crazy now. poor third baby, we've used up all the good names already :D

Mavis is lush

i know an adorable Frieda

TIY dp is Richey as my silly pet name for him I call it him when I am asking for more children trying to appear sweet!

It has grown on me - infact his whole name has and i think it would be über cool on a baby boy

I want a Christabel

I just sighed out loud at it!!

LaDiDaDi · 18/04/2009 23:31

I actually didn't like it but was reading Clement Frued's obit. and it said that he was often known as Clay as well as Clem as nnames and that made me think again.

SuziSeis · 18/04/2009 23:32
