Baby names .. please help
The Ant Hill Mob:
Don't do a Bob Geldof / Paula Yates and call 'em summat like 'tiger lily' or 'fifi trixibelle', cos it sounds like a dog's name, and they will hate you forever. If you have an 'interesting' name for them in mind, give them 2 names - my second name is Anastasia (pronounced Anastarzia, the russian way). I had a boring old middle name, so when I changed the surname when my Mum got remarried, the boring old 'Ann' got booted out (sorry to all of you Anns out there), and the quirky russian name came in. Those of you who know me will know exatly why!!
Don't call them something from Lord of the Rings (unless you're a really really big fan), as in 20 years there will be a host of Arwens and Aragorns and Legolases at uni, like there's a rash of Kylies now.
BTW, my name Julie Anastasia actually means 'Youthful Prayer'. You could go for something like that, with 'hidden' meaning.
clips:
weve always liked cameron or bethan (i also like meghan and hannah but there stories of old!)
wife works in a school and im in a hospital, so most kids names conjour up images of somone elses kids and behaviour.
like most have said check what names can be shortened to and if youd actually want to be called it, most of all
CONGRATULATIONS and GOOD LUCK
bobmaf:

The Ant Hill Mob:
Why don't you have a look at Greek, Roman and Norse mythology?
Some interesting ones are Juno, Ulric, Freya etc. If they're good enough for gods/godesses, surely there's something there that will suit 'bump'!
