    what would they have been named if..........

    hi all

    Just curious, its something you will get asked by your little one when they are older:
    what would they have been called if they were the opposite sex?
    Or was there more than one name to decide from on the birthday?

    Mine are/would have been:
    Samuel - would have been Samantha if girl.
    twins/ Zachary & Savannah - other names Ethan & Eloise.
    Tabitha - was almost a Natalya, would have been Benjamin if boy.
    Eloisa - would have been Nico if boy.

    One on the way, haven't a clue yet what this one will be called.

    I used to ask my Mum this all the time!

    If I was a boy my name would have been Thomas James.

    When I was born my name was Amelie Jane but apparently my Mum's OB told her it was too close to the name Amelia Jane which was a naughty character in a book. So my doctor told my mum I looked like an Amy Sarah and it must have stuck!

    We have found out the sex of all of ours prior to picking names so they only had their names. I had The only real changes that may have happened are

    Evan James - could have been James Evan
    Glenn Joseph - was possibly going to be Zenith
    Isla Jewel - was possibly going to be Isla Jade.

    This one is most likely to be Iain.. But still deciding on that or Finn.

    Alexzander was almost just Xander & was going to be April if he was a girl.

    Juliette was going to be Gabriel is she was a boy.


    If I was a boy I would have been David, mum said all of the girls (three of us) would have been David. I was also going to be Sarah Lee, but the cakes came into popularity around that time, so I became Sarah Jane (dad wanted it hyphened). It turned out it was also my great-grandmother's name but my parents didn't realise until later.
