Stop calling dads incompetent
Advertising that depicts men as being clueless insults those who are involved and active fathers. It also creates a escape route for those who want to shirk childcare and domestic responsibilities.

Hi ladies
I know that there are many, many name experts on here, and I need your help. We have one DD. Her name is Tabitha (DP's surname) (my surname). The format will be the same for our new bub, i.e. (first name) (DP's surname) (my surname). DP's surname is a very common, easily spelt two-syllable English surname. Mine is a one-syllable Welsh surname. We do not know if it is a boy or a girl, so we need options for both. We do not agree on any names! Some sample preferences from each of us are: DP: Harriet Manning, Saul Me: Hilda, Clementine Felix, Sebastian Has anyone got any other suggestions that might appeal to both of us? Thanks so much. |

Thanks Gudrun and BabyBumbleBee. I appreciate your help. We've added a few to our list from your suggestions, so that's something to work from at least.
 And thanks Ky! Yep, getting close to the end of this pregnancy now. Time flies eh? We were in a DIG together over three years ago... xx |
