Iv two little boys 3yr old & 18 month old plan to hav more some day, mayb... I dont think its early for name pickin, da min i did da test i was brain storming, its jus a happy way to think about baby b4 they get here i think... I printed off book loads of names off da internet for ds1 then we had our 2 fav boys names & let my mil choose between them, but she had a 'dream' when i was only a few wks preg wit ds2 he wud b a boy & told us his name... It took some gettin used to, now i love it cause its his but still dont pronounce it properly supposedly... r ya plannin to keep it a suprise or will ya find out if ur havin a boy or girl??

I always LOVED Olivia til I found out it was no.1 name 2008, and ly had to reconsider.
Belle - I wouldn't do that unless it's short for e.g. Isabelle.
Finn and Jesse are both lovely.

ParanoidAtAllTimes · 29/10/2009 02:14

LOVE Finn- that's reserved for if we have a ds2! Mia is really pretty.

RomanCandleJollster · 29/10/2009 08:46

Love Finn - one of my top choices for a future DS2.
Like Jesse as well - so long as middle or last name not James

Girl's names - think Mia the nicest, but maybe becoming very popular.

How do they "sit" with your other DC name?

diddl · 29/10/2009 08:56

Like Mia & Olivia.

Beeny1980 · 29/10/2009 12:52

Def Mia - pretty but classic

Jesse for me would be too concerning for school taunting possibilities but depends on the boy i guess!! Like Danny tho - timeless...

Heated · 29/10/2009 12:59

Love Finn and Danny (although I'd use Daniel on the bc personally) - both really strong but friendly names, iykwim. Dh is from an area where Jesse is still an insult. Beau is cool but I happen to know a female Bo, so less comfortable about using it for a boy.

Belle is lovely. But the other two are also very nice. Win, win whichever way.

jellybeans · 29/10/2009 13:17

Mia...love it
Olivia...bit popular
Belle...like it

Danny...like it
Finn...ok
Beau...don't like
Jesse...too girly

CinderellaRach · 29/10/2009 15:53

Thanks for your answers.Yes 'you big Jesse' isn't a nice taunt to hear growing up hehe!!Think I'll go with Mia/Danny(Daniel on bc);o))

Lovely names

Salonly · 29/10/2009 20:25

Olivia and Finn!

birdofthenorth · 04/11/2009 20:38

LOVE all you list, esp Mia, Danny and Beau. Lovely choices!

BrigitteBardot · 04/11/2009 20:40

Mia and Finn!

JANEITEluddite · 04/11/2009 20:42

Olivia - I like Belle but only as nn for Isobel

Daniel with nn Danny / or Beau
I don't like Finn or Jesse.

sunshinejanuary · 04/11/2009 20:47

Olivia and Finn are my favourites, although perhaps i would use Finlay on the birth cert and then shorten it to Finn?

PoppyIsApain · 04/11/2009 20:48

Olivia
Jesse

bluebump · 04/11/2009 20:52

I like all of the names on your list which I don't hear myself saying too often!

NowtonTelly · 04/11/2009 20:53

Mia and Danny my favourites.

hellsbelles · 04/11/2009 20:56

love all the names (and have one for my DD!) - but Mia is my favourite (I couldn't use it as close family member is called it)

Brightfield · 04/11/2009 20:57

Mia & Finn are my favourites. Finn is fine on its own and doesn't need a longer name on the BC IMO.

Francasaysrelax · 04/11/2009 21:00

Mia and Danny

doubleexpresso · 05/11/2009 20:53

Belle or Danny. Good luck.

Beanigan · 05/11/2009 21:28

Mia & Danny (or Daniel) my faves
