I'm Currently Feeling: | Names - we are having a slight disagreement! Me and James were talking about names today and we both love one name for a little girl (and I'm nearly 100% sure it's a girl, have to wait and see though) which is Cayla, but James wants it Kayla.
We really really can't agree on it, he is just not backing down! And he says that because of the accident he should get to choose! lol 
How do I persuade him?? Also we have thought of a name for a boy, Nathaniel Callum. But the Callum part is after my eldest brother, Cal. James said that we can't do that because my other brothers will get jealous, but I have 5 brothers and 2 sisters, I can't name the baby after all of them! And I really like the name!
Any thoughts?

Aw thank you  I like it! Yeh it's still said exactly the same but I like the C! lol I think James is disagreeing just to annoy me tbh! Men...!
Mmm, I don't think they will be jealous but I can't be 100% sure. I love the name Callum though, I'll have to have a think.

| I like Cayla,...maybe you can have family members take a vote, without telling them who picked what, and just go with it?
And if you name the boy Nathaniel Callum, you can just say it's just because you like the name. Your brothers name is just Cal, right? it's not short for something else?
Good Luck! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I wish I could be more help lol but I like either Kayla or Cayla. As for a boy, maybe if you think you're brothers will get jealous then steer clear of naming the baby after one of them? Caleb maybe? |

Good Luck! | Thank you hun!
Yeh Cal is just Cal, not short for anything. Tbh, I don't think any of the others would actually be annoyed, I'd just rather avoid the possibility! lol its complicated this naming buisness isn't it? Much harder than I thought it would be!
