lol @ a baby called Croppy!

Is Lilac marginally less dreadful than Missy? Can't quite decide.

Euphemia or Hepzibah

paulaplumpbottom · 29/03/2007 22:54

Missy is what my mom used to call me when I was in trouble

Tinkerdumpsandruns · 29/03/2007 22:56

Hepzibah and Euphemia both sound like illnesses

paulaplumpbottom · 29/03/2007 22:56

fatal ones at that

LOL ppb!

ScummyMummy · 29/03/2007 23:03

Jed. Johnnie sounds like a condom

Cuthbert or Rupert

berolina · 29/03/2007 23:08

Oh gosh Scummy, neither. Both intolerable IMO.

Poppy or Daisy

Rantum · 29/03/2007 23:16

Jed, because Johnnie makes me think contraception

Abelard or Ethelred

QueenofTwee · 29/03/2007 23:17

Daisy - never particularly liked the colour red

Salome or Jessamy

Rantum · 29/03/2007 23:19

Cuthbert, Poppy, Salome

Rantum · 29/03/2007 23:21

Cuthbert - horrid but less poncy than rupert
Poppy - pretty flower, sounds a bit like a horse, but has energy
Salome - well, she was a strong female

Abelard or Ethelred

ScummyMummy · 29/03/2007 23:22

Daisy- nice flower name. Poppy ok too, I guess.

Abelard because he knew great love and I wouldn't want the poor baby to be unready

Yvonne or Yvette

Rantum · 29/03/2007 23:25

Yvonne because it just appeals

Lara or Lyra

QueenofTwee · 29/03/2007 23:34

both are nice but Lara - like the Russian book /film - what's it called?

Iolanthe or Jane

ScummyMummy · 29/03/2007 23:36

Jane- because a lovely Jane is on my email contact list. And Jane Eyre is fab, And I just like it. And Iolanthe is poncy.

Seigfried or Wilfred

ScummyMummy · 29/03/2007 23:55

Have just realised Abelard was castrated. Perhaps unreadiness is preferable?

QueenofTwee · 30/03/2007 10:27

Wilfrid - friendlier and can be shortened to Will

Carys or Betrys

nogoes · 30/03/2007 10:36

Carys. Because it is a pretty welsh name and I have never heard of the other name.

girl 1) Elyzabel 2) Annabel

QueenofTwee · 30/03/2007 10:38

Elyzabel - very pretty but am a bit allergic to 'y's where there should be'z's

Mabel or Mirabelle

Bucketsofdynomite · 30/03/2007 10:52

Mirabelle because it's mroe fairytale and less Mrs Mop.

Marianne
Eleanor

peevedfrompurley · 30/03/2007 11:02

Marianne, because it's a far more sensible name. Eleanor is too poncey imo.

Sarah or Frances
