I think the important thing when naming your child is not to care if someone doesn't like it, if you like it go for it!!!
When i was pregnant with my 4 year old i had the name Finlay for a boy and Kelsey for a girl as we didn't know the sex, a few family members weren't keen on kelsey but admit now she couldn't be called anything else suits her so well, she is called Kelsey Rose which i think is lovely!!

My eldest was due christmas day and would have been a Holly if she had arrived on time, I always knew she was a girl. My youngest was going to be a Matthew if she had been a boy.
If I was chosing now I would have William for a boy and Ella for a girl.

Our eldest daughter is called Darcy, we only knew one other in the UK, here in oz there are loads of boys at her school called Darcy! When I was pregnant with her and told my mum I liked the name she said but everyone will call her Darcy Arsey! When I got all defensive she said ok bumhole then, charming!
Our youngest is called Polly-Anna, when she was a baby her hair was rather orange so we called her Polly-Anna rusty spanner, which then got shortened to Rusty or Rust, as she is usually known now, poor little thing, daft really because she's blonde now!
Favourite boys name is Archie.
Mrs Kevinl.

Mrs 3 will be giving birth in approximately 3 months time.
This will be child No. 3. Lot's of 3's happening here I've noticed.
Anyway we currently have 2 boys, Lucas & Zak. We haven't found out the sex of the third ...
We are stuck for names ... girl or boy.
Has to be modern...ish, but not too off the wall.
I've suggested:
Boy - Oscar (Mrs 3 not so keen)
Girl - Hannah (Still not convinced myself)
Ok ... folks ... shoot. All names will be presented to the boss.

One poor bugger had been called Zig,another was landed with Lincoln)...OK but his surname was Green!
I would say the current Aussie popular names: are Madison,Riley,for boys and girls,Noah,Cooper and Jaxon for boys Ava,Ella and Taylah for girls.Have also spotted a few Tysons(!)
If I had anymore,I would have Olivia,Giselle or Amelia .
For a boy I would have Patrick Daniel or Jared.

Couldn't go with a Giselle ...
The thought of my little girl being called Giz ...
It conjures up all sorts of thoughts

I look at the births announcements in our local paper-some of the names are off the wall to say the least.

My eldest is at school with a "December"
Oh and there's a "Tuesday" as well which I quite like but would be tempted to only call the child that if they were born any other day of the week
