Nervous to announce our baby name.

Since I found out I was pregnant, my mom has mentioned naming our baby Isley Elizabeth. Isley is my moms maiden name, and Elizabeth is my gandmothers name (also my middle name).I loved the idea. My partner has been stuck on the name, so it just felt like a sign. After we found out we were having a girl, I fell in lo...

Does Edith sound like “C. diff”? 😅

Edith has been creeping to the top of our girls list. Maybe it’s because I’m a nurse, but it suddenly dawned on me that “Edith” sort of sounds like “C. diff”? Am I insane? Does anyone else hear that? Could we still potentially use it or am I going to think of feces every time I say my child’s name if we do?

Names that belong

Anyone been in the same situation where you have other kids and have run out of ideas on what to name your most recent baby, because you fear it won’t belong with the other kids’ names?

Thoughts on Rudy?

Thoughts on the name Rudy for a boy? Yay or nay? I’ve been loving Harvey and it feels similar, though my cousins had a dog named Rudy when we were younger so that might be weird….

Advice needed! Do we go with our fav name even though I hate how it's pronounced locally?

So we've had our favourite name picked out since forever, a family name that we love, but my husband and I are from the UK now living in Tennessee, and the way it is pronounced in an American accent really bugs me! Its not something that could be easily corrected, as its root is a common American name - think simila...

Upset about baby names!

My Dad and his girlfriend came over for dinner last night, and we told her, like we've told everybody, that we're naming our baby Alfie. Her face was absolutely disgusted, and her words were "oh you're not? Surely you can think of a better name than that?" I was so shocked by her reaction 🤯
