Number 3 must be so tricky! It just gets harder each time round, doesn’t it? All the names I seem to like are either E names or and end in an ‘a’ sound which we really want to avoid as too similar. Arghh xx

Agree on boys names! We had one we loved picked out last time but it was the only one. We’ve completely gone off it now (and it’s so associated with the first pregnancy that we couldn’t use it!) But saying that, we can’t find a girl’s name we like either…yikes x

So difficult! My sister-in-law is a teacher and she found it impossible as she’d taught so many children with names and associated them. And when you already have a child you know so many others from playgroups and NCT don’t you? Lets hope we both find on we like soon! x

Why do husband’s do that? At what point is yours going to discuss it though? Mine finally relented after the 20 week scan (when I made him go through the entire baby book). We’re still no closer though! x

We’re finding it tricky and it’s our second, must be so hard with your fourth! I’m sure the perfect name will come to you soon, and you’ll just know it x

I think it could be trickier next time round but mainly because I have such differing opinions to my husband. x

I have written about it so many times on my blog and would continue to do so but David has asked me not to this time around. Finding a fourth name is proving tricky. We want a name that compliments Esther, William and Matilda. We want a name that gives this new baby a character of her own but also nods to the fact she is our Rainbow and has a big sister in the sky. Naming a child is a huge responsibility. Today I think we have it narrowed down to two names but who knows what we will think tomorrow xx

We both agreed on her name straight away but the next two we took turns in naming. This time its my turn but, again, my husband is doing his infuriating thing of refusing to discuss names AT ALL!! Haha it is hard choosing a name though, but one of my favourite bits of it all!

My SIL is called Ellen and her son is called Evan and when you call either name it’s really hard to differentiate. She thought about an E name for their second but was convinced from the rest of the family not to, ha! We both loved the name Wilf even before I was pregnant so it was pretty easy for us but the girls name we liked at the time we don’t like now! x
