Baby Names
« on: March 28, 2009, 01:16:30 pm »
well, just a few weeks ago i found out my girlfriend was pregnant. quite unexpected and totally shocking, and it's the first one of my own. SO - i was wondering about baby names. i'm after something totally original and unique, but not stupid. (and we don't know if it's a boy or girl yet.)

anyone got any suggestions?

My fave girl names at the moment are Freya, Mia , Chloe and Daisy.  For boys I like Tom and........................erm today i am in a just like Tom mood. I've got an idea, take a part of your name and a part of your girlfriends name and put them together.

Well congratulations wjp!  I wouldn't tell anyone what names you are thinking of prior to the event - there will always be somebody who says something to put you off!  Combining two names can have interesting results.....

For boys I like Seth, Anthony, Isaac and Duncan.

For girls I like Faye, Elizabeth and Erin.

My kids are called Douglas (after my dad) and Ruth. I thought they were names that would grow up with them and not sound silly when they're older.

Ruth is a very good name for a baby as it will grow well with her. Add Ruth to my list wjp.

Sorry wjp I meant to congratulate you but i got too excited wanting to name your baby Loulou. There's an idea let's just agree on Lou...a name that will suit a boy or a girl.
