names you would love to have but feel you couldnt

[mum22ttc#3]

I love the name Pixie for a girl but have been told it would be cruel to call a child that. I would also worry that once she got too school she may be teased for it.

 

[MegGriffin]

I love Angelina, Isabella and Rayne. x

 

[Maz1510]

I love Piper for a girl, but my DH is a plumber... "oh yeh Piper what ya dad do... he fixes Pipes!" er maybe not then! lol.

 

[Tia]

I loved the name Hayden last time but we used to have a not very nice family in our village with that surname and every time I told anyone that I might call LO Hayden, they would laugh. This time, I'm not so sure that I care what they thinks cos I really like it.

I love the name Molly, but my niece is called Holly and they will be spending quite a bit of time together so think it will be too confusing!!

I also LOVE the name Bella, but our surname begins with J so her initials would be BJ - not something I'd want our daughter to be associated with, lol!!!!!!

 

[debzie]

I absolutely love the name Megan but its the MILs dogs name. So Megan who were you named after????? lol.

 

[Vicyi]

I love Angelina, Isabella and Rayne. x

My DDs middle name is Jessicka-Raine

I love names like Tiger-Lily, Pixie, Blake, Zane etc but my OH n family think they are all to 'funky'

 

[Nyn]

I love the names Fern and Wren, but I don't think I could use them.

I LOVE Wren!!!

For me a boys name I love is Perrin, but it doesn't work in French

 

[Pramaholic86]

I love Avery, everyone said it isn't a 'proper' name but I think it's beautiful.
Poppie I wasn't allowed because I had a labrador called poppie.
Daisy sounded to porny with his surname, which I agree with but love the name!
Charlotte was banned because OH knew a crazy Charlotte.

Next time I'm not being swayed by anyone and wish I hadn't this time!

 

[mummypig]

There are lots of names that I really do like but wouldn't use for one reason or another.

Olivia- friends baby
Sophia- friends baby
Lily- too popular now
Isla - Too much like our daughters name
Matilda- got a bad reaction from our family
Tabitha- Hubby says it souns like a cat
Joshua- Our surname begins with J and it doesn't flow somehow
Finley- had a dog with this name
The list goes on, it's hard as you try to pick a name thats not too common but also not so unusual that they have to spend their lives correcting how people pronounce or spell it. It's a difficult balance to get. I would hate to get a really bad reaction to my childs name.

I love the name Phoebe but OH's cousins daughter has that name. I also adore Rupert but I'm about the only person who does - far too old-fashioned for the fella!

 

[Linzi]

We were going to call our daughter Samia but had some awful reaction from family so we#ve knocked that on the head. Its such a shame coz I think it us the most beautiful name but it really provoked a reaction :/ x

 

[pixydust]

I love the name Casper but it just couldn't be used with our surname - Jarrett.

 

[eviestar]

i love the name Coco for a girl too!! we seriously considered it, but family really put us off (like they have with almost EVERY name we come up with :/) also like harlow, phoenix, ocean, autumn, tallulah, shiloh and hero for girls but not sure if im brave enough to use them! although phoenix is still a strong contender for our little girl x also love chloe for a girl but my ex's niece was called chloe so cant use it, same for sophia and maisie as my oh's sisters are sophie and daisy so too similar and same for mercedes but my name is porsche so would be realllyyy cheesy to have 2 car names in 1 family lol x

 

[KRB87]

I love Emily for a girl but DH has fallen out with it - apparently it's too popular. My mum and dad have two female springer spaniels and with their second took one of my favourite names - they called her Izzy and I love the name Isabelle - can't really bring myself to name a baby after a dog... DH is all for the name Bonnie - but that was a cat I had as a child! Glad we're not having so many problems for a boy - but we're team yellow so it might matter in the end!

I love the name Casper but it just couldn't be used with our surname - Jarrett.

Haha that is funny. Casper is a great name but I see where you're coming fro
. I like Oliver, but the surname will be Read and that's probably not the best start for a child in life....

I love the name Casper but it just couldn't be used with our surname - Jarrett.

[RaspberryK]

Jupiter for a boy and Luna for a girl - My parents would probably get me sectioned!

Luna is actually a really pretty name for a little girl, but think my parents would try and have me sectioned too if I suggested it!

 

[RaspberryK]

Gah. bloody parents! Might have to get some more pets for these pretty names
