What good taste you have!

Apart from Iris and Astrid that looks like my old list!! I also had Phoebe and Vivien on it too though.

Here are the names I will never get to use.

Vivien, Phoebe, Sylvie, Marcus, Thaddeus, and Leo.

thisisyeaterday I know someone with an Astrid - it's apparently really common in Germany and Scandinavia, but uncommon here - SO pretty, but not too girly

Prof I like Marcus (but not Mark, so did not use for DSs)

ohdearwhatamess · 12/05/2009 21:06

Mine are

Elizabeth
Eleanor
Emily
Millicent
Isobel
Iris

Like Astrid too, but not sure it would quite make the final list.

DH and I are ttc number 1. I have a few names in my head for girls, but when I mention them to friends sometimes they look at me blankly

Juliet
Katherine
Eliza

These are in order of preference.... plus, DH only likes Juliet, so I guess that's a dead cert if we ever get pregnant, and if it's a girl.

ohdearwhatamess · 12/05/2009 21:13

Oh I love Eliza. That should be on my shortlist too.

I think the reason I like coming on Baby Names is the thought that somewhere out there there may be a baby with a lovely name I helped choose.

A few months ago, someone posted from her bed, a couple of hours after having her first DD. We all helped name her. It was really exciting and lovely to be a part of .

Bloody hell, I think I might be broody. Someone remind me what a nightmare babies are !

lockets noting your favourite book, did you ever consider Scout, Harper or Jem ? (my friend has a Jem)

OP posts:
Lizzylou · 12/05/2009 21:23

Oh me too, OP!
My unused girl's names are:

Thea (DS2)
Lily (DS1)
Abigail
Imogen
Annabel

Middle names would have either Elizabeth or Rose (both Family names) or Fay (my Mother's maiden name)

Sigh.

Hang on - did you see the thread where Atticus was being debated?

TALLULAHBELLE · 12/05/2009 21:39

I wanted to call one of my DT's Scout. But it didn't really match anything & I thought she may not appreciate it in the future. So Scout is her nickname now & her sis is Buster

screamingabdab · 12/05/2009 21:40

Scout and Buster - Cooool

OP posts:
TALLULAHBELLE · 12/05/2009 21:40

Buster is after the girl in The Shiralee not Buster Bloodvessel BTW.
