Oh and if you haven't decided on names can I put Gregory into the mix? Not many about, my son is the only one at his school and there are 1500 kids there!

Baby is due this week Kemp.

Wishing Elizabeth all the best for when the big day arrives.

A friend told me her daughter has picked Maisie for a girl

I have just had a card from a nephew & his wife announcing the birth of their daughter who they have called Amica Tiora. Amica comes from latin Amicus meaning friend. Tiora is the name of nephews late mother, a maori name for the stitchbird. Perhaps you could use the name Rima, which is maori for 5.
A friends granddaughter called her daughter Xanthe (zan-thee).
Huia.

Congratulations!

A friend of mine is a midwife and a baby on her word born this week had the name ~POPPY

Good luck

I have a second cousin called Poppy, Vicky, and her sister is Bryony.

Don't forget to check the initials with your surname, my step niece didn't seem bothered when she called her daughter Jessica Ann and the surname begins with F, I did remind her to think about it but the poor little soul, at school now, is FAT!
Her second daughter is Isobel so IF, can't remember what the middle name is lol

Could save a lot of teasing and tears if you make sure there is nothing to be made of the initials.

Still no signs due today, really like Libby Kate if its a girl but still struggling with boys names. You would think i would be struggling with girls names with 4 girls already!!

thanks for all your imput much appreciated

Liz

Elizabeth a boy's name is easy!!!
Gregory. The only one to choose! lol ;)

Not that I'm biased in ANY way having a Gregory of my own. :D

How peculiar. Just read the last two posts. I was christened as Elizabeth, always known as Libby and my maiden name was Gregory.

I am sure that as soon as you see the babe you will know just what to call him/her.

Lots of luck.

Hi Elizabeth
Why not start at the very begining?

If it's a boy = Aaron
If it's a girl = Alyson
If it's a mix = Alyron lol

My daughters name is Fiona Jane.and she was the only Fiona in all 3 schools she went To, so not a common name i was glad i chose it. hubby chose Thomas for our boy and there were 4 other thomas's in his class.

how about mae sakura means cherry blossom

my grandkids are
Kieran Rowan
Poppy Rebekah
Bailey Matthew
Kitty Scarlett
Kaden Flynn
Gorgeous names and gorgeous kids

Well its bound to be another girl and she should be called ........RHIANNON JANE...........so there !

If its a girl then how about India that is one of my grandaughters names and everyone loves it.

When my cousin and his wife had a baby in September they called her Rosie May. Around the same time a friend of the family also had a baby girl who they called Connie Paige.

In a story I once wrote, I had my main character named Catherine Celeste with her two daughters being Juliette Cassandra and Rose Constance.

I really don't like the abbreviated names as proper names, I think it is nicer to give the full name and use the abbreviated version at home etc, gives the child a choice when older on how to be addressed, particularly in business dealings etc. Just my opinion obviously, each to his own, but when you sit in a playground and hear all the names the same.... for instance, Fern Britton called her little girl Winnie, but maybe Winifred would have been better so she had the choice, could have called herself Freddie or Winnie then.

I am sure when your little one is here, you will know exactly which name he or she suits.
