my favorite girl names, my OH completely hates!
help me think of some lovely names?
I love Scarlett, Cadence, Bonnie etc and he likes boring names :(
we both like Hannah but I don't LOVE it.
last name is Wood :)
needing middle names too haha. I know it's early but it's a nice thing to have ready xx
 
I was going to say Ebony but would be weird with your surname lol

what about:

Candice
Amber
Ivy
Jade
Ruby
Violet
Pearl
Hazel
Viola
Olive
Iris
Opal
 
What does oh like that you think boring? Just so I don't end up suggesting them ha

My mom's name is Bonnie(Bonita). Her middle name is Rae. What about that?

Bonnie is a tough one to come up with middle names for.

Hmm.

Sierra Jayne
Faith Lynn (or Lynne)
 
well if you like Olive you could use your grandma to your advantage, say you want to honer her memory by using her name

you could try and change the names he likes into something nicer/cuter, example:

I also dont like Emily but I think Emilia is really cute

I would but he's ran out of suggestions.
seems like he isn't bothered at all, I know he wants a boy but there is a 50% chance it'll be a girl and its like he won't listen to any names! annoys me ever so much haha xx
 
Bonnie Wood isn't a name I would give my kid sorry!!

Emilia is a nice suggestion
Emilia Olive Wood

Emilia is a nice suggestion
Emilia Olive Wood

everything with 'Wood' seems to sound like a paint sample or flooring to me.

I like Bonnie Wood actually. But like I said my OH doesn't so it isn't on the cards anywho.
 
Just chiming in with a Madeline, maybe? Madeline Wood is a very feminine and strong name, in my opinion :)

i love Madeline, ill definitely voice it to him when he gets home!
thank you :)
 
I like the idea of twisting your DH's suggestions. Amy to Amelia would be a good jumping off point in discussions.
 
Oh great! Can't wait to hear the verdict :)

I've said Amelia before, it's beautiful! but alas he doesn't like it -_-
I'm going to tell him that if baby is a girl I'm naming her & if its a boy we already have a name! haha x
 
Def just tell him if it's a girl you're naming her! lol

Amilie is another pretty variation for Emily, Amelia or Amy. Or call her Annabelle and tell him he can call her Anna or Ann if he wants.

I did that, I liked Mia but OH wasn't a big fan so we settled on Amelia and I call her Mia for short anyway. Ha!
 
if it's a girl I really want Annabelle but I'd call her bell, Bella for short :) xx

That's how we decided on our baby names the first time around. We stayed team yellow and ended up having a girl :) Her name is Elsie and I love it, so of course I'll suggest it to you! Nora is on my names list right now, another lovely suggestion :)
