MUMOF5 · Jul 12th, 2009, 10:56 AM

Ok everyone, we thought we had our names, but my husband told MIL them yesterday and she turned her nose up, so now hes started to question them!! We agreed that I'd name a girl and he'd name a boy (as has been the way with our last three), although we both have to give it our 'seal of approval'. So anyway im throwing a couple of other names into the ring, opinions would greatly be appreciated.

Madeleine May
Phoebe may
Ella May
Connie May

(May is after my dear nan who passed away 2 years ago, so will be the middle name no matter what).xx

It was Madeleine that she turned her nose up to. The thing is, its my other nans name, and being that she was such a big part of my life growing up I thought it would be a really nice for her to have a great grandchild named after her. Her excuse was that we already have a Maddy in the family, but as I said her name is Maddison and shes my husbands cousins daughter, hardly immediate family!!!

LOL I know Maddie May is a bit of a mouthful (and we would shorten it to Maddie), but we wouldnt call her by her middle name aswell, it really is in remembrance of my nan who's middle name was May.
