These are the final three names which we have (finally) decided on!

Could you list them in your order of preference please?

Middle names would also be very welcome for any one of the three!

Thanks. . .

I started off not liking Kismet, but now you've explained its relevance to you, it's become my favourite by miles.
And Kizzy is lovely.
Pl make sure you use it - even if only as a middle name!

Hermione - is a beautiful name, but I knew one and she was both boring & a right pain, so biased against. Think I wouldn't because of Harry Potter.

Genevive - why does this remind me of a 1960s movie about a car? It is cute though.

Declares Gizmo's interest.

Would add - hated it totally and utterly as a child but not helped by an odd character in Diana magazine. Grew into it as an adult but feel that I only carry it off because I am uber posh. It does not shorten - DH is allowed to but only DH.

A lot depends on your last name which I think needs to be simple. One really can't stand and spell "h e r m i o n e something very unusual".
