and start a baby name game?

This is something I pinched from another site and the game is called "congratulations"

Each round I'll randomise whether you have a boy, a girl, twins or none.

You then use each rounds rules to name the baby with a first name and a middle name.

I.e.

First: Must start with a J
Middle: Must be of Italian origin

Get it? Want to play?

"sign up" and I'll post the first round in due course

Nadia Violet. According to that site, Nadia means 'moist'

DrivenToDistraction · 27/03/2010 20:43

Nadia Violet

Variant transcription of NADIYYA, means "moist, tender, delicate" in Arabic.

DrivenToDistraction · 27/03/2010 20:44

Oh blimey! I spent faaaar too long choosing that too [grr]

skidoodly · 27/03/2010 20:55

Two Nadia Violets then?

I used to quite like the name Nadia before finding out it meant moist. Eugh.

Fadi is an Arabic name for Jesus. Ban means white.
