What would you name your next child?

Fago!

Aye?

Girl: Lucy, Alison or Andrea.

Boy: Andy or Danny.

Yes I'm bored but humour me.

minidazzler

Girl: Anna, Shiobhan

Boy: I'd love to say Sebastian (Like in Cruel Intentions) But it would be too strange a name TBH.

Of course I don't want kids.

But that's what I would name them!!

pikachucheeks

Ooh, you like my name, OP!

I don't have a child, but if it was a girl ... Eva or Poppy (shhh, it's cute!)
If it was a boy, Dylan or Sebastian.

Could always have kids together :P I'm not taking care of them though!!!

Can't name a child Poppy. There is a Pron star named Poppy Morgan, it would be too weird IMO!!!!

The Big Red Button

Girls: Sadbh and Aoibhe (I don't care if no one else can pronounce them! ) Or else Amelia and Sophie. I didn't plan for those initials to be the same by the way!

Boys: Conor and Aidan

Kimia

Poppy is an adorable name! And i love sebastian, he could be Seb for short!

I think Poppy's a cute name

Has anyone ever asked their parents what their name choices were, before they made a decision on your name?
I was going to be called Eva, Rosie or Abigale!
I don't think any of those names suit me as much as my real name (

Andrea

)

Yeah, it's a cute name!! But it would freak me!!! :P

Then I was called Gavin. But I have basically changed that so Everyone knows me as Mini. Only my family call me Gavin.

I was going to be called Annie after my granmother, but my Dad decided I was too pompus looking.

If I am ever luck enough to have kids, my first born shall be Blaze.
See above for the reason.

Hum? Poppy Pikachucheeks. I like it. It gots a ring to it.

Candygal said Jack. +1.

I really like the name James but I'd be afraid the child would grow up to be called Jimmy. :cool:

Like Charlotte for a girl. (although found out last night the name just means 'man'. That's not very nice).

Ah I think I've a few years yet to be worrying about these things.

If it's a girl, Annie after my grandmother. No ideas for a boy though!

My granny was called Annie as well. Its one of my middle names.

Just found out my Dad's granny was called Molly so I've been thinking about that as well. He apparently loved her (he never talks about his past).

I had a lovely patient called Martha who died so I was thinking about that name as well. Or are they all a bit granny-ish?

Eh, no.

Everyone actually calls my granny Nancy, but her given name is Ann, or Annie. Don't think I could inflict the name Nancy on a kid!

You'll find out in January.

My Nanny was called Molly, but her proper christened name was Mary. I think names like Martha are enjoying a comeback now.

I love Molly I already used it for a dog though , and Martha would be nice if I didnt associate it with the character in Home and away.

I really like James too. My other grandmother was Lena, I think that is really preety.

I used to work in a nursing home and jaysus, half the patients had 3 different names. Visitors would come in looking for a certain patient and it was like, "eh who?".

Nancy is just awful though.

They may also be my first and middle names... :P



And my gran's name is Ann! :P (and another one of my middle names...)

I like most names, but only after someone is called them, if you know what I mean. I mean....you know when you hear an unusual name and you think "that's bleedin' rubbish" but then if you get to know a person with that name it just becomes grand, or even good.

Classic example for me is River Phoenix. If I named my child "River" people would lol at me, but actually it's a grand name when you've heard it enough.

edit: For what it's worth, our kids are called Jack and Róisín. I love both names.

ROFL.

This will only be number 3. After that it'll be just 1 more, 2 at most (unless it's an accident ). Sure if you have 3 you may as well have 5. Only thing stopping us having a massive number (like 7 or more :eek:) is that pregnancy is a pain in the arse.

Judging by most people I know, it should be a name (preferably Irish) that "goes against the grain" (that is: impossible to pronounce by anybody except their parents) and that will date the child so effectively to future generations that they may as well wear a post-it with Celtic Tiger Generation on their forehead.

holly1

What do you think of Emma,I love that name.Eva or Ava?
For a boy Jack,Paddy,Billy or Brian.
My Nanny's names were Catherine and Hannah.
Grandads names Louis and Joseph.

Any examples? I don't particularly like any Irish name. Shame on me.

There's one or two I have in mind but am afraid somebody would recognize them if I say it.

Aifric is the worst Irish name ever. Sneachta is another bad one.

I love Irish names.
Fiachra, Ciaran and Beibhinn are favorites but I used up my quota of potential babies in the last post.
So I'll have to make do.

You are joking! :eek:

Girls: I really like Emme/Emmy but it sounds like it short for something else (and I think JLo's kid is called that) so I'd probably go for Alexis (Lexi) or Naoise.

Boys: Dylan or Matthew

Emma is a nice name IMO. But only suits people who "look" like Emma's.

My nan's name is Catherine too, it's my mam's middle name!!! But Hannah is the prettiest name I have ever heard. I love that name!

Just a nice sound to it.

I really like old-fashioned informal boyish names like Johnny, Sonny, Harry, Tommy and the like.
