DS1 - Bob (a old joke about naming a child bob) or Zermatt (as in town in Switzerland where we visiting during some of our TTC time - sharing a dorm with two other couples and had to make obvious excuse to get some privacy to BD!)
DS2 - Ester (as that is what my mother and sister wanted us to call No 2 but wasn't going to happen).
We found out the gender at the 20 week scan and chose proper names then, so we just used their actual names from then on. Not very exciting.
DD was Gill and this one is Beez.... Gill and Beez are the guys off the Metal Hammer Podcast.... So, yeah... metalhead referance....
I nicknamed my nieces too. Abigail (RIP gorgeous) was Cletus (like Cletus the Fetus.... my sister wasn't impressed) and 'Freaky' was nicknamed "Kevin" like the bird off UP. My sister watched it early in the first trimester and cried all the way through it...
DD1 was Ed. After multiple miscarriages I was so desperate for a sticky bub so my sick mind went sticky = glue. They make horses into glue (before anyone jumps on me, I've always had horses, love them, never ever sent one to the glue factory!!). Mr Ed was a horse. Therefore "Ed".
DD2 was Ned, short for next Ed
This bub is Ted - third Ed.
PS Have absolutely everything crossed for you M. So pleased for you.
Ours certainly aren't cute but both have stuck for the duration of my pregnancies
DD was 'Tarko'
This baby is 'Nasi'
Tacos are one of DH's favorite foods so when discussing names for DD, he threw it into the mix (being an idiot) but adjusted the spelling to make it 'modern'
This baby was conceived in Singapore and DH loves Nasi Goreng so that's where Nasi came from. Another one of these seems appropriate!
when first TTC, was peanut (thus I am the peanutter!!)
first was Sprog (courtesy of grandpa in Rugrats, we later figured out!!)
this one is Ziggy (the zygote ... though they're not a zygote anymore!!)
cutest one I've ever heard of was from SIL - they called DN Spanner. Because there was a spanner in the works A very planned and beloved spanner, albeit.
