pacinoFanOfBrusselsSprouts · 16/01/2006 18:38

Theo Constance
Alexander Frances
Jude Thea
Benedict
Gabriel

We are expecting a girl in April - I am really wanting to call her Frances Helen, particularly as we have a really difficult Italian surname and this actually goes quite well. DH wants Catherine, which goes, but I would want to shorten it to Kitty.

Nemo1977 · 16/01/2006 18:42

I also like the names
arrianna
alianna
maia

kreamkrackers · 16/01/2006 18:53

my dd name is amelia jessica, it really suits her. i called her amelia from when i watched bone collector when i was pg. i wanted an unusual name but it's become a popular name but i love it anyways i find myself (only 4 weeks pg) looking at the credits at the end of films for lovely unusual names.

My little one is Ruby.
Also know babies called
Millie,
Mabel
Eve

Baxter
Dylan
Archie
George
Henry

weewilliewinkie · 16/01/2006 19:48

I have a Cameron. PG with no 2, already convinced she's a girl....

I like

Daniel.......Leah
Nicholas.....Rebecca
Michael......Sarah (Sadie)
Guy..........Kathryn
James........Mia

Always wanted to name a little girl Katie May sfter my mum and gran, but I married into the surname Steele, so I don't think it would work...Katie May Steele...or she may not...
Don't think I could go with Daniel either, sounds a bit too much like Danielle Steel...Hmmm

PeachyClair · 16/01/2006 20:17

I have:

Stirling Max
Samuel Godfrey
Harold Jarvis Griffith

surname for all is Peach

The girls names we had were Bethany, Aisha and katie.

Our current faves for No 4 if we ever get any time alone (!!!) are:

Abraham
Sebastian
Dharma (Means what is right / the right path- Eastern religion term)
Amber
Sapphire
Anna-Maria
Pixie (Yes i know, we'd never actually dare!)

George for a boy I suspecta s a middle name, Juliette (a version of my Mum's name) or my name Clair for a second name on a girl.

PeachyClair · 16/01/2006 20:18

Forgot Alice-Rose (my nan's name), and the name Harry would have got if it weren't for family duty- Darwin.

Mandymoo · 16/01/2006 20:21

I have a dd Bethany Grace and am currently expecting a boy due in May. Boy's names we like are:-

Harry James (current fave)
Alfie
Archie
Jamie
Nathanial

If i were to ever have another girl, i like:

Evie
Madeline
Freya

maddiesma · 17/01/2006 13:50

This is really odd - we have a Madeleine and I am thinking of Evie or Nathanial for our second.

My DD is Mary-Anne Pauline . I'm expecting No2 in May and so far we've agreed on Robert John for a boy and we're still deciding on a girls name although we both like Grace and Amber though we haven't made a decission yet

MistressMary · 23/01/2006 20:45

Mine is Jensen and is a boy.

ych · 23/01/2006 21:01

My little boy is Joel Gregor.

DebitheScot · 25/01/2006 12:23

I'm having problems with girls names. Will be Cameron if its a boy.
One of the problems is I'm a teacher so there's so many names that remind me of pupils I'd rather not be reminded of!

Enid · 25/01/2006 12:24

like Beatrix/Beatrice for a girl

have no idea for a boy

well i only have one boys name:

Joshua

Girls

Holly
Mia
Ruby
Emma

Think we're going for Joshua for a boy and ruby mia for a girl. could all change before baby appears though

IamBlossom · 25/01/2006 15:54

Enid I really liked Beatrix to until my DH informed me that no daughter of his would be called "Beer Tricks" !!

I like Ruby Sue for a girl, and Toby Peter for a boy. Stuck on those as all my other faves there are about 50 million kids running around with those names already!

JIFDA · 25/01/2006 15:56

We already have a Fleur Ebony, Dominic Ewan & an Archie Nathanial. We know that we are having a boy this time & we have chosen Ellis Owen.

SarahAndMegan · 25/01/2006 16:02

I have one daughter who is ten weeks old, we only had one name for her ... Megan Alice.
Boys names much easier, max, freddie and owen.

childern · 25/01/2006 16:14

well i have two boys, Tristan @ Lewis

Misspiggy · 25/01/2006 16:15

A work colleague's sister has just named her son Milo.
