Baby names!

Moonbeam

my 2 year old loves it as she loves Max and Ruby.
Personally I don't think it is too bad but it is also a common dogs name.
Are you thinking Max as the full name?

I like max. I think it's a good name. While I get people saying certain names are also dogs names, I think you should take that with a pinch of salt. It seems these days people call their pets every type of name going!!

any thoughts on Rory or James? I like Rory, my husband likes James. I just feel that James is soooo popular.

Mix them and call him Gerry Or the French name Remès.

I like both, Rory is on my final 4 list!

Rory and James are both lovely names.

I love both Rory and James! They'd be on my list if they didnt sound so wrong with our last name. This keeps happening to us unfortunately :P

I wish the name Alex wasnt so popular because I really like it and it fits well but I keep being told to avoid popular ones. Siiigh

Yea it's the dog name bit that's in the back of my mind... though it's really growing on me and the only name me and oh can agree on... the dog aspect aside I think it's a nice name for a baby, then kid & adult. I think i would christen the baby Max, not Maxwell or Maximillion.
agh decisions... 4 weeks to decide :-/

I would go with max, don't even consider the dog name part. My Friends son is max and it's a great strong name and never once did the dog association cross my mind. Like you she christened him Max, as that's the name they liked. Good luck

I give up! I can't pick a name I like or he agrees with. He's pretty quick to tell me what he doesn't like but doesn't put suggestions forward - I could choke him!!

My picks & his reactions

Rosie - 'She sounds like a million years old'
Jacob - 'Too religious'
Leo - 'Howya I'm Leo Dowling from Fair City'
Cora - 'Yuck'
Evan - 'Too much like even'
Bella - 'His Gran had a dog called Bella'

Honestly, I hate that man!

Evan and Leo aren't too bad.
I would have to agree with him on the rest of them.
What names does he like?

MurdyWurdy

My husband was like that - vetoed almost every name but would never suggest any of his own. It drove me around the bend! In the end we managed to agree on a name but it was tough going!

Any thoughts on the name Hazel? We both really like it all of a sudden, can't really think of a good middle name to go with it though... Also if we went with hazel the initials would be HH so def need something to break that up :P

Suucee

My OH is the same. Just went through the whole alphabet for boys and girls and only names we agree are Sean or Roisin.
Even at that not names that i totally LOVE just like.
At least we have loads of time. We will know tge genderbin a few weeks sovthat will make it a bit easier. I hope

Chattastrophe!

I absolutely love Hazel, it's really pretty. And it's definitely not a very common name, but not at all "weird" at the same time!

Moonbeam

Hazel is really pretty and quite unusual now:)
I also love Róisín but we know to many adult ones to use it:(

MurdyWurdy

What about something like Hazel Jane? I think a plain one syllable middle name would be good, it's a nice name, unusual but not made up or too weird

wolfpawnat

Hazel is beautiful.

My OH and I argued names, so I gave him the job of naming the kids and I would just say yes or no.

Definitely something beginning with R, you'll have your own little HRH. :P

Hazel is lovely. I always liked that, we even put it in our house name.

Congratulations to you, our youngest is called Hugo and it really suits him. Although we usually refer to him as hurricane Hugo, but he is really lovable and a real charmer, and he is only turning 4 next week. Enjoy your little bundle 😊

We've decided on Addison Olivia for a girl! We both really love it so I'm gonna ignore our families who will probably disagree. We'll probably use Addie while she's growing up

I'm pretty sure we're having a girl, but we chose Sebastian as our boy name! Still cannot for the life of me think of a middle name though

Moonbeam

I like the sound of that:)
I am completely stuck for future names! I dunno what I would call another boy.
