omg just had a talk with dp- he says he wants to call baby something cool and "hard" like hammer or bullet or axe!!!! flipin heck this is gonna be harder than i thought

Cristina7 · 26/01/2006 21:43

I know of two little brothers who are Huckleberry and Blue.

heymammy · 02/02/2006 17:58

My dd is Rudy Frances but was going to be Sonny Robert if a boy.

Currently 16 weeks pg with no.2 so sticking with Sonny Robert for a boy but flummoxed for a wee girl's name.

I think I really like Dixie Rose or Dixie Mae for a girl but I remember the names I liked in the early stages of pg 1 and don't like any of them now so not making any rash decision at the moment!

Oh...and I also used to know a boy called Blue - I think it's kinda funky but my family etc just couldn't cope with that one!

4blue1pink · 02/02/2006 17:59

Do you mean ruby or not?

heymammy · 02/02/2006 18:00

No, I mean Rudy

I liked Rudy for a boy also but strangely dp didn't but he DID like it for a girl...go figure!

4blue1pink · 02/02/2006 18:03

Are you american?
