Can you ever be ready for a baby?
Before you get pregnant, you might have all the boxes ticked, or you could be the 'let's just see what happens' type. No matter what your style, it can help to think about the emotional aspects of parenthood.

We have been having a hard time coming up with any names, so our list is short. I have posted here a few times with various names and now i'm close to my due date it's time to get serious!
DD is Camille, there will be no middle name and surname is 2 syllables and starts with V. In no particular order: Jasper Dominic Gabriel Lukas - Pretty much discounted due to immense popularity Edit - Liam removed from list, it's not a contender. If you have any more suggestions let me have them! Thanks

Out of your list and the one that i think would most suit your DD's name is Dominic.

I like them all (except Liam

Yeah my favs so far a definitely Jasper and Dominic. DP want's to spell Dominic with a CK but I just think it looks a bit wrong (Dominick), it should be with a C right? He also likes Domenic (I prefer Dominic, I think?).
And am I the only person here not bothering with middle names for my kids? I'm starting to feel guilty about it, but in all honesty I just never saw the point in them. This post has been edited by Mille-Mille: 16/01/2013, 06:21 PM |

If you use both the parents' surnames (?) a 'middle name' is superfluous IMO. You still have 3 names to help distinguish you from others. You still have a name in the middle.
Apart from that it's just a collection of syllables anyway! |
