Loving Peas and Beans!

Our 4 year old is called Lottie, she can be Charlotte when she's older if she likes.

She met another little girl in the playground a while back. I asked said girl what her name was;

"Constance"

"That's a nice name"

"My Dad calls me Connie"

"Does he call you Conkers as well?"

"Yes, sometimes he calls me Bonkers Conkers too"

Cracked me up, Constance FTW!

I quite like longer names that can be shortened in different ways. Gives 'em a chance to pick something they like later. Eg, Josephine = Jo, Josie; Nicola = Nic, Nikki etc.

Had to happen eventually. (-:

Imagine them working in a job in their mid 30's, say a vet or an accountant or something.

If you've ever done interview scanning of applications you will look at a name and make a preconceived judgments.

Barbie Diana

Was his choice.

She's called Saffron.

Not Annabel or Isobel. 50% of all girls born since 2008 have one of those two names.

I would go for one of:

Bianchi
Urtacaria
Bono
Kujo
Gogglebox
Spitzbergen
Grapefruit
Scrit

Beans was in the Telegraph a few months ago. She got the skateboard she wanted, and she can ride it too....

Ooooh, it's always difficult! I didn't want my kids to have 'popular' names, nor weirdo ones, so they've both ended up with Scottish names. 8)

Actually, when daughter was born I changed my mind and happy that I did.

Regional names are always a good bet. As long as it's not Myfanwy, if you ever plan to conduct business otuside Wales.

I took you seriously for at least half of that post.

As far as Bono? Do you know what urticaria is

Actually.. hmm.. are there any other bike related names that could pass for girl's names?

I used to know someone called Hope.

we'd settled on Macy, but she arrived with balls and stuff so we called her Eden instead..

Our first would have been called Smiley Facedon if my eldest niece had gotten her way.. 😀

Neighbours' granddaughters are Cadence and Rogue (not Rouge), i' m not sure the mother really knows what they mean.

For a test to see if your name will ruin your child's life chances, put the letters QC after any full name you choose. If it sounds ridiculous, your condemning her to life as a McDonalds drivethrough operator 😆

Do you know what urticaria is

Not without googling. Now I do. (-:

Did they spring eternal?

Layla

She's going to be fielding chatup lines of "would you like me on my knees?" for the rest of her natural.

Mrs King and I are expecting our first in October. We both like the name Cerys for a girl and maybe Cameron for a boy, so far...

We were holding out for Megatron for my friend's first son. It's no more or less appropriate for a daughter though.

Allow me to introduce Lily Kona Moran. The old 'you pick the first name, I'll pick the middle', ruse worked perfectly.

I didn't let her drink it by the way.

You underestimate children. Moreover, children have parents.

Rogue

Just about possible a parent is an X-men fan?

I've just remembered there was a baby born to a couple of BBC Leeds breakfast listeners a while back (used to listen to it when I was commuting to Leeds every day). They called her Trinity Grace. Anyone guess where in W Yorks Mum & Dad lived?

the wife doesn't want anything where there is likely to be loads of them in the playground with the same name so something usual without being strange our son is called phoenix if that helps
we are also in Wales (but she doesn't want a welsh name) but she was disappointed to find that her oldest s sons name James is pronounced jams with a welsh accent. she also doesn't want anything that can be shortened
not to much then lol

Friend of mine is a huge Leeds fan so called his first daughter Ellen. Wife didn't pick up on it luckily as she agreed to call the first-born son Ralf Mika after the F1 drivers on the understanding that was the end of sporting links.

Stick to standard names IMO and give child a crazy middle name.

Calling bullshit on that hora. I have two unusual names and the only one I got ripped for at school was my middle name. If you're going to pick a different name, put it right out there, don't hide it.

I've always liked the name Hannah - if we'd had a daughter instead of 2 boys that's the name we would have gone for.

I know a couple of people called Ailsa, it's not too common and most folk call them Ailie.
