If you are going to go for Lucy, stick to that traditional spelling. Little girls love things with their name pre-printed on them (you know, mugs, pencils etc etc) and if you use a non-traditional spelling it becomes a bit tricky. (btw I know Lucie is the French trad spelling and it is pretty, but I'm sure ykwim)

I really like Halli for a girl. It's a little close to my name but I don't care. I like ella aswell.

Hayleyandbaby · 06/09/2007 16:50

Oh no wait ella lawrence is close to child abuse. Girls are difficult. We're all set for a boy.

hayley2u · 07/09/2007 09:59

yer i did like ellie but too close to the poor kid

So sorry Hayley just read the other thread - your ex sounds a pratt.

If you like Lucy just go with it. Now have you thought of a second name?

Lucy Erin Lawrenson

hayley2u · 07/09/2007 10:14

thanks fimbo. yer he is a prat. we both decided on lucy but i donet no now as we chose it as couple. its between lucy or erin though, but keep swinging to each one lol

Fimbo · 07/09/2007 10:18

I don't think if it was me, I could go with the choice he wanted. But thats just me

Hulababy · 07/09/2007 10:21

I like the name Lucy. It's very pretty.

I actually like the spelling Lucie.

hayley2u · 07/09/2007 10:23

good luck with birth

hayley2u · 07/09/2007 13:07

its ok got till wed to decide i must be the most indecisive person ever anyway this is just killing me. most my family prefer erin. but ex partners neice is called ellen do you think it sounds too close, they will have different 2nd names mind, and wont c much of each other she lives i ireland, were i wish my babys dad would go back to lol

OP posts:
Niecie · 07/09/2007 13:12

They are all lovely names but I prefer Imogen because there aren't so many of them around.

I personally have a bit of a horror about chosing something that appears in the top 30 most common names for the last couple of years.

CountessDracula · 07/09/2007 16:37

There are billions of Imogens around me!

CountessDracula · 07/09/2007 16:39

in fact it was the 48th most popular name last year! here niecie!

Niecie · 07/09/2007 16:47

I don't know any imogens but there are hundres of lucy's sophie's megan's, molly's and erin's around here. No Poppy's though, except a dog so I can't agree with that one either!

I have just discovered that my 'Jacob' scrapped in to the top 20 last year so that's that then, he'll have to have a name change.

Jackstini · 07/09/2007 21:46

Hayley - just wait until baby is out, call it all the names and pick the one that suits best!

Hopeitwontbebig · 07/09/2007 21:49

Hi Hayley!!

I really like Sophie and Imogen. They were TOP on my choice names I wanted for my LO, but DH was having none of it

I agree that Sophie goes well with your surname. HTH x x

hayley2u · 08/09/2007 17:23

think it going to be lucy

OP posts:
hayley2u · 09/09/2007 09:38
