Hi, just quickly - my sister works with teenagers and is in the process of setting up a group for Teenage mums and their babies. She wants a name that isn't going to sound cheesy or twee for the group but can't come up with anything. She has rejected "bumps and babes" (coz it's a post natal group), "yummy mummies" and "babes n babes".
Any ideas gratefully received......

Would 'Young Mums' be too boring?

Judd · 10/05/2005 19:49

Don't know. I always hoped I was still "down with the kids" but it's patently not true......

I think she's concerned that unless the name is sort of spot on for that age group, they won't identify with it and therefore just won't bother.
Bah.

Well........... why doesn't she get the said group together for one meeting, ask them to brainstorm, then take the ideas away and ask their friends and family to brainstorm.

Then have a second meeting with a democratic vote.

They may then, be more interested as they feel a degree of ownership ??

Mum Fun - the group for teenage mums

think it would be a bad idea to try to be 'down with the kids' you'll just come across patronising

they may be teenagers but they are mums too

I'd go for a short name, not too funky and just use a tagline like 'the group for teenage mums'

Judd · 10/05/2005 20:15

So you think I've memorised all the Busted lyrics in vain then, Twiglett?
DD won't be embarrassed by me, oooooh no.

Thank you everybody for your suggestions which I'll phone through to my sister later this evening.
