I would have loved to use the name Byron for DS2, but it clashes with our surname LOL!
The boys name I would have used for DD is Kai.
I also would have loved the opportunity to use the girls name Isla.
Never mind! Maybe I'll save those names for a pet :lol:.
I ran out of girls names
But I am sad that I wont get a Hamish, Caleb or Tobias if we stop for sure now. Maybe in a few years...
I will never have a little Elodie or Jameson :(
Ohhh there are some lovely names in here!!! :D
For us, I'm just really sad I'll never have a Titus. It's my favourite name, Silas was next best (and I do love that name too!) I can't even think to change the spelling so I like it. Taitus, Thaitus, Tytus...they don't look as good to me.
Stupid culture with Tit us, or Tight arse. :( I don't think I could do that, I usually don't care about names that someone 'might' be teased about, but the likelihood just seems too high with Titus.
*sigh* Isn't it a beautiful name though? Titus...
I always wanted to use Sapphire as a girl's name.... and I love Willow too....
my regrettables include Willow, Aneke and Astrid...DH just doesnt want to even go there :(
And i really liked the name Silas for a boy, but again, DH just looked at me like i was a crazy lady lol.
luckily we have agreement on the name either way now...although i can always dream lol!
LOL.:
I wish someone would see another one for me :(
I used to love Maeve. It was all I wanted to call DD....but now as it doesn't look like I will have any more, the need to use it has lessened....actually I didn't even ask if we could use it for DS....
Yep... My little Cordelia Rose will never be... :crying: oh well...
Nelle - I can identify with where you're coming from there. I love Japanese names and my favourite boys' name has long been Hiro, which would have sounded a bit silly on a strawberry-blond, blue eyed, decidedly Anglo kid living in a borderline redneck part of the world. And as this is our last kiddo and it looks like she's a girl (or a reticent boy), we won't be having a Hugo now.
And I really love Aine for a girl, but Euan and Aine together are too similar in both spelling and pronunciation. Although, now I see them written together I kind of like it. I'd like to go with another Gaelic name for this one, but a) I'm a stickler for traditional spellings, but b) some Gaelic names spelled traditionally are a long way from being phonetic and can be really hard to get right.
I am sad i never got my Aricyn Mehkelti Eden *sob*..
Would have been the perfect name for no. 3
xx
Suse - I'm good friends with an elderly Japanese lady (she lives on my street) named Hiro :D. Why can't you use it for your girl? It's an awesome name!!:
And :rofl: at PinkPalace!
I doubt I'll ever get to use my beautiful girls name and it breaks my heart :(
Carys Audrey Leontine
Although Ds1 is insistent he will get another brother and his name will be Fox :lol:
Suse; I reckon Caoimhe would be awesome with Euan..........but I could care less about spelling matching phonetics (Im a fan of gaelic names too!)
PP :rofl:
We had Aine picked for a girl too but thought we may have to spell it as it sounds Anya we may hopefully still use it :):
I have always loved oscar and felix but DH was never keen :(
I like it Freya, but I think my daughter would either hate me for saddling her with a name that needs constant explanation or would move to Ireland if I name her that though. Niamh is is one of my favourites - and is another good example of a Gaelic namesthat is non phonetic when spelled using English. Not many people outside of Ireland know that the 'mh' is pronounced 'v'.
ROFL!!!! You dag.... :lol::
TBH I think in this day and age it doesnt matter; my kid have names spelt exactly how they sound (although unusual in origin) and I STILL have to spell, respell and repeat it 20x to new people! So I figure atleast with an unusually spelled name, esp if its gaelic which means its actually spelt "normally", you expect to have to spell or prn it a million times.
I think a pp suggestion of using Hiro for a girl is good too!
I reckon whatever you pick will be fabulous though :)
