I have started to think of names again!! Even though I have no plans to get pregnant again ... Well not in the immediate future.

Anyhow for a girl I really like Juliette And for a boy xander!

Going to start trying again soon. I'm still hoping for a Kathleen ( aka Kitty) I just love that name.

we are Polish-Irish couple and we think of double names, Polish and English/Irish
some of them are:
Girl:
Ellie
Colleen
Pola (Polish name short form of Apolonia)
Alina
Kyle (I had a dream where baby said that to me

)
Milly
Anika (Swedish)
Maia (Maja in Polish)

Boys:
Joshua
Benjamin
Jonathan
Ethan
Błażej (Blaze I think in English )
Henry
Aleksander (Polish version of Eng.Alexander)

still thinking, 3 days to go

Ok after some thought I've come up with the following:

Girls
Robyn
Ava
Aoife
Carla

Boys
Andrew
Max
Ben
Mathew
Cormak
Evan

Leaning towards Cormak for a boy the last few days.. I expect that will change another million times in the next few months though

So hard to decide..

Would Cormac not be the more usual spelling?

Probably

Kade or Cody for a boy, Jamie or Alex for a girl

**January** · 19-07-2010, 17:53

If (IF!!!) I were to go again it would be Connor for a boy and Grace or Emily for a girl.

HerbertGirl · 20-07-2010, 17:03

Bobby
Joey
Louis

Girls:

I named my little girl Isobel in the end, but for the longest time I was convinced I would name her Annabelle. Such a beauitful name.

Word to the wise...if you do like annabelle, don't tell anyone that you will name her that. It got ruined for me...but i wont tell you how. Just keep it to yourself!

Oh no, I'm so curious now... how was it ruined for you? It's not near my top out of them anyway, so would love to know how it was ruined... PM me?!

knipex · 22-07-2010, 10:48

I have noticed a lot of odd spellings of names here and some 1st names been spelt like traditionally the way the surnames would?
Is this on purpose?Why did you choose the different spellings?
I am just interested.

I don't think I will ever be able to decide on a boys name ever..

Cormac
Setanta
Tadhg (I had typo'd but it is apparently spelt Tadgh
and Tadhgh too)
Oisin
Donal
and then I get stuck!

For girls -

Dearbhail (oh how I love this name)
Caoimhe
siofra
Laoise

I normally have lists for girls but for some reason can't think of them atm.

I can't type fadas atm so I am aware of my above spelling issues

RunForestRun · 22-07-2010, 16:10

Moonbeam, was your spelling of "Tadhg" a typo or a bit of irony considering the question about strange spellings?

I think people often want to try and put some kind of an Irish spelling on what is a non-Irish name, I've seen and heard of this loads. When we were naming my daughter, there's really only one way that her name is spelt, yet people were asking would it be spelt in various different ways to make it look like an Irish name.

Also, I think plenty of people possibly don't really find out for sure how exactly to spell a name. When we were getting our baby's name registered, a couple were insisting that their child should be named TJ. Not Thomas Joseph, or anything else, TJ only!!! Madness.

Next thing, we'll have Destiny Murphy and Moonlight O'Sullivan.
