Title says it all really, I want to balance up a longish first name and surname with a short middle name but can't think of many, I have rather got stuck with names beginning with B for some reason and DH doesn't like them (Ben, Bay and Blue suggested so far).

Any good ideas?

Allie, I love Vaughn too.

BessieBoots · 24/03/2010 21:02

Loving Helyg's list... I think she may be a fellow Cymraes...

Bill is a fantastic name, I've never thought of it for a child.

notsoteenagemum, the girl's name is likely to be Mabel or Mabli.

I really like Beau!

fabhead · 24/03/2010 23:20

oooh im after one of these but for a first name. none of these have hit the spot tho, keep going.

Already have a Mack

BessieBoots · 25/03/2010 07:28

Oooooooo Mabli! Looooooovely!

notsoteenagemum · 25/03/2010 08:07

Mabli is lovely Peas, I like Mali too.

BessieBoots · 25/03/2010 10:52

When are you due? Mai is nice if she's born in May...

(dammit, have gotten sidetracked with girl's names...)

helyg · 25/03/2010 17:46

Mabli is a lovely name.

My boys were born in May and September, and if they had been girls their middle names would have been Mai and Medi. Of course they were boys, and when I finally had a girl she was born in Februray, and Chwefror didn't have quite the same ring to it!

AllieW · 25/03/2010 17:51

Meant to add Huw, too, but see at least three others have beaten me to it! However, I "fourth" their suggestion.
