Pesto - that is cruel suggesting Araminta!

How about Grobag or Iggle Piggle?

Muffy-jo or ming-ming for girls
Ace hawk rebel - boy

I think you'll find they should stand out and not be copied.

mustrunmore · 01/08/2007 21:34

I'm not telling you my boys, as their names are so brilliant you'll copy

peachygirl · 01/08/2007 21:38

I would have liked Linus for a boy DH initially suggested it as a joke

lucy1978 · 01/08/2007 21:39

if i had had a girl we were gonna call her tia which is not that unusal but its not that common. instead we ended up with a little boy, jay

looseleaf · 01/08/2007 21:45

eandh I really like Hattie. Do lots of people as if it's short for Harriet or is that ok?
I quite like
Isla
Eliza
Eloise

and I can't think of any boys names, sorry!!

lemonaid · 01/08/2007 21:46

Ryan is the 25th most common boys' name in England and Wales, though, so not exactly unusual.

MrsBadger · 01/08/2007 21:49

wtf is wrong with Araminta?

Antigone?

We know an Italian family and one of their dds was called it. She (and they) was lovely. I would have called my 3rd dd it, if I'd actually had a 3rd dd... lol

PestoMonster · 01/08/2007 22:03

Was the horse Italian, btw?

Jojay · 01/08/2007 22:04

No.

She did have dark brown eyes though and long dark hair.............
