I'm Currently Feeling: | Names - OH finally looking without being asked!! Woo hoo!! So he's come up with another name so we now have 3, although he has 2 at the top of his list. He thinks we should have a short name, not that it matters as a long one would more than likely be shortened!
So the 2 original ones are:
Gabriella - Gabby or Ella or even Bri for short
Maya - errrrr, nothing short, not keen on May
New one:
Lia - the spelling doesn't matter in English as she will be born here in BG and it would be spelt Лия (Liya). The Я is ya, but he says it could also end in A which is the same in both languages.
OH said Lia could be shortened to Lee which I love (although if in the UK it would be Leigh!!). So what do you think. His favorites are Maya and Lia, not sure if I prefer Lia now. Oh bloody hell!!
PS My mums favorite is Gabriella but she was also rooting for Isabella but that's not on the list anymore. Oh she will sulk if it's not Gabby!!!! |

Every time. She doesn't push, but I do know she loves the name and just spoken to my dad and he loves Gabriella too.
He says he's not too keen on Lia and prefers Maya.
There's no rush yet and we may end up with another name on the list yet!!
Thanks again x |
