Oh my gosh, I think we may have discussed this before but my no. 1 boy's name is Cassian..I absolutely love it. I'd call him Cass for short. My husband doesn't like it.
My husband likes really boring traditional names that are so blah.
He didn't like our eldests name before she was born but I won after you know...labour. so I'm hoping he'll give in this time too.
Same!!Why do I feel like if I say my child’s name, someone from “real life” will find me on tattle and hunt me downit’s not like I put anything else personal on here
... how would anyone know if my nipples got big or my vagina swelled
Sod it… we’re going with Abigail and had Cameron for a boy
I love it! To be fair it’s not a particularly hard one when you compare it to other Irish names, I just know it’d get butchered where we live
I actually didn’t realise that different Irish names would show whether you’re Protestant or Catholic too… what is Fiadh out of interest?
I loove Ivy! I couldn’t consider it because it would be laughable with my nameWe're having Ivy and my boy is Elliott
Our baby girl will be Margot. There were about 2 boy names I liked so quite glad we’re having a girl!
Love all of those! Alba is very pretty.I like Arlo, Noah, Rory or Rowan. I also love Eden for a boy but I’m not sure I’m cool enough. My husband likes Fernando and Miguelactually we’ve taken to nicknaming the bump fernando because I find it that laughably awful. It just reminds me of Paddy McGuiness and the isle of Fernandooooooo.
If it’s a girl I love Alba, or Lottie (but would use full name Charlotte). But would also happily use Ivy, Florence or a whole list of other optionsI find girls a lot simpler
I liked Eden for a girl, but it doesn’t go with my partners surname!
Hi and congratulations, wow a ten year wait! That’s amazing. EnjoyNewbie joining in! 25 weeks, first time mum to be after trying and fertility treatment for 10 years. I’ll be 40 when our boy arrives too. It’s all a bit overwhelming isn’t it? But thankfully pregnancy is being kind to me other than lots of lower back ache
We've chosen hannah for our girl, narrowed it down from about 6 names eventually if she was a boy she was going to be called Jack though as that was the only boy name we both liked 
if she was a boy she was going to be called Jack though as that was the only boy name we both liked My husband is English, I am N. Irish and we live here. He still doesn’t get that certain names are used by certain groups of people. Anytime I make a comment about name and the connotations he just doesn’t get it
Same!! I’ve said one of ours but I was thinking if I said anymore someone may “know it’s me”.Why do I feel like if I say my child’s name, someone from “real life” will find me on tattle and hunt me down
I’m now convinced you must be a Holly. I think Holly and Ivy would be spectacular togetherI loove Ivy! I couldn’t consider it because it would be laughable with my name
Its not even that but it would be very rare for a staunch loyalist to name their kid Aoife or Eoin or Fiadh. Same way growing up I never heard of a Catholic Alan or Charlotte or AbigailI love it! To be fair it’s not a particularly hard one when you compare it to other Irish names, I just know it’d get butchered where we live
I actually didn’t realise that different Irish names would show whether you’re Protestant or Catholic too… what is Fiadh out of interest?
all lovely names and I think my generation are done with that horseshit generally anyway, but it's just a stereotype lolNB: comment about Belfast still applies lol
We aren’t finding out this time round!
Ah we have!!! Cass is just beautiful! My friends grandson is Cassius and he’s such a DUDE!Oh my gosh, I think we may have discussed this before but my no. 1 boy's name is Cassian..I absolutely love it. I'd call him Cass for short. My husband doesn't like it.

My husband wants to remind you all about my sons other friend… Baby Keith. Keith is not named after anyone, his Mum just liked it.
Keith.
Ahh got you! Just chewed my partners ear off about this subject as I find it interesting, which he enjoyed while he’s watching a football documentaryIts not even that but it would be very rare for a staunch loyalist to name their kid Aoife or Eoin or Fiadh. Same way growing up I never heard of a Catholic Alan or Charlotte or Abigail
NB: comment about Belfast still applies lol
on par with baby Gary… Or someone I know who recently had a baby Guy!BABY KEITH
love itI posted on the secret celeb thread once about my previous job when I worked at a record label. Woke up to a PM asking if I was X, as they remembered me from our hometown. Spooked meWhy do I feel like if I say my child’s name, someone from “real life” will find me on tattle and hunt me down
but if you ever meet an ICU nurse with a kylo ren tattoo… it ain’t me 
Baby Keith is the cutest kid mind you and his mum is just fab, but when she said Keith I was like YOU WHAT? KEITH?????BABY KEITH
Have to also throw this name out there, NEGAN. Baby NEGAN. Named after the walking dead character. If you have ever read or seen walking dead, Negan is this huge presence of a man in size and personality. Baby Negan is a weed with a snotty nose.
I’m now convinced you must be a Holly. I think Holly and Ivy would be spectacular together
we worked out (a while back now!) that there are three of us similarly named on these threads! Keith is the name we tell everyone we’re naming our baby!
Or what about when you really like a name but someone that you HATE has stolen the name for their child
Life of a teacher!Or what about when you really like a name but someone that you HATE has stolen the name for their child
not the hate part but you get flashbacks of every child you’ve taught when choosing a name for your own, some names make you shuddernooo!!!Or what about when you really like a name but someone that you HATE has stolen the name for their child
